Netherbound

Nik Hunter

Netherbound is a narrated horror anthology podcast delivering three original short stories per episode, each one darker, stranger, and more unsettling than the last. Inspired by classic pulp horror and the eerie intimacy of midnight radio, Netherbound explores haunted towns, cursed objects, vanishing people, and the voices that speak through static. From forgotten signals to mirrors that don't reflect quite right, every tale draws you deeper into the spaces just beneath our own—where things are lost, buried, or waiting to return. Grounded in psychological and paranormal dread, Netherbound invites you to step past the edge of reality… and stay a while.  Three stories. One descent. You tuned in. You can’t tune out. To be continued....
