When a strange vision of murder sends him to a small town to investigate, Dr. Xander Crowe discovers that Wormwood is no ordinary town. Secrets lurk within every resident, from the innkeeper to the town librarian to the waitress at the diner. The seemingly idyllic surface of the town hides a mystery unlike anything he’s ever experienced. Navigating through this tiny, isolated town in the foothills of Northern California, Crowe finds himself drawn into a web of dark conspiracy, strange romance, and arcane mysticism. And now, as Crowe begins to unravel the mystery at the heart of Wormwood, he finds that his very presence there may not be a coincidence at all…
Wormwood is a weekly, serialized mystery podcast that launched in July 2007. We recently completed our entire 24-episode season, with the final episode being put online on January 14th, 2008.
Wormwood Season Two is set to launch in May 2008! We're very excited to continue the story, and we've got some great stuff in store for you. New characters! New threats! Same quirky horror you've come to expect!
Wormwood is a quirky ensemble drama with elements of supernatural horror and mystery. With its strange, small town setting and tragic lead character, Wormwood is designed to appeal to fans of Twin Peaks, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Hellboy, Supernatural, and Hellblazer, as well as the works of writers like Stephen King, Clive Barker, Neil Gaiman, Warren Ellis, Edgar Allan Poe, and HP Lovecraft.
Wormwood is the brainchild of Executive Producers David Accampo and Jeremy Rogers, aided and abetted by The Wormwood staff writers Jeremiah Allan, Rob Allspaw, Tiffiny Whitney, and Rick Bata.
Wormwood is produced and distributed by Habit Forming Films, LLC, a dynamic film production company dedicated to producing uncompromising works of entertainment outside of the traditional Hollywood studio system. Habit Forming Films’ first film, Bad Habits, won a Remi Award in the original dramatic short film category at Worldfest Houston International Film Festival 2006. Bad Habits also screened at the 2007 Sacramento International Film Festival, where actor Jack Sway took home a Best Actor award. Habit Forming Films has also produced The Long Road, a short film, which picked up an award for Best Editing at the 2007 Hollywood FAIF Film Festival. HFF is currently in post-production on The Hollywood Informant, a black-and-white noir short produced in association with Geeworld Studios.
