“Magic and magical people—the ‘unnatural order’ is all around us. There are good witches, evil witches, demons, vamps, werewolves, shape shifters, ghosts; it’s a protoplasmic party of creature features out there. But unless you know where to look, you won’t find them. I know where to look. My name is Harry Strange.” And so begins each episode of the Harry Strange Radio Drama, an award-winning, full-cast, scripted audio drama. Harry is a crusader for justice, and champion of an archangel who makes his own decisions regardless of what the ‘good guys’ desire. Because of a promise Harry made, he is “both painfully mortal and achingly immortal, and those conflicting impulses mesh with an almost unearthly smoothness throughout his casebook history.” A combination of “Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar”, and “Constantine” Harry Strange is a whiskey-swilling adventure that combines the golden age of radio with contemporary storytelling.

An entire town… gone. Without a trace. No signs, no warnings. Just silence. This is the story of Cold Sparrow.
Twenty-four years ago, the peaceful town of Cold Sparrow became the center of one of the greatest unsolved mysteries in modern history. Every resident vanished. Among them, the enigmatic billionaire Benjamin Veers, whose strange ways made him an icon of intrigue. The town, once forgotten, now infamous. The questions? Endless. The answers? Nonexistent.
For over two decades, investigators have been left baffled—cults, kidnappings, disappearances—none have led them closer to the truth. But now, three celebrated private investigators—famous for bringing down one of the most dangerous cults in history—have been called upon to tackle this mystery. Known for taking on the cases no one else could solve, they’re determined to uncover what really happened in Cold Sparrow.
Yet, the deeper they dig, the darker the whispers become. Rumours swirl of something far more sinister than anyone ever imagined. Could the mystery of Cold Sparrow be tied to forces that reach far beyond our world? Could it be linked to something… infernal?
Some mysteries, once uncovered, may be better left untouched. Cold Sparrow: A town that disappeared… but something still lingers in the shadows.
The investigation begins… now.
