Customer Reviews
brilliantly haunting
in strange woods is a profound musical audio drama about loss and grief, and absolutely gold. its five episodes, so you can listen even if you dont have much time, and still have enough time to get attached to every character. give it a shot, because its worth it
So freaking good!!
Binged in one evening - couldn’t stop listening! Gave me chills and the music still haunts me days later. As others have said, was a jolt to realise this is fictional. Hope to hear more from these talented artists 💜
listen!!
