The Foxkey Chronicles: What Hides Beneath

These exclusive Foxkey Chronicles take place through time. They are true and honest recollections of past events, from a place that may seem familiar...but isn't. Steve Bradshaw, better known as Buck by those who called him friend, was what they called a Duster. A man who made a living on the road, gathering dust, as it were, traveling from one place to another."Who goes there?!" He shouted out, squinting his eyes to better see in the darkness, but see he could not. He could only hear, hear the sound of horses hooves drawing closer. Turning into to. One two his left, and the other not far off from that. "I said who goes there?!"A coy laugh filled the darkness, making him jolt up straight.

It roared with a power stronger than any fire Vera had seen in her life as if fed by some unnatural source. Why, the flames seemed otherworldly. Violet ribbons chased and leaped from flame tip to flame tip, snapping and caressing the yellow firelight in a way that had Vera questioning her own sight.  Such a fire should have had the whole town burning, but somehow, unbelievably the flames did not leap from house to house. Yet still, the fire claimed. It claimed just as was its purpose.Podcast Summary:The year is 1874, and no children walk the cobbled streets of Murkwood, Texas. For going on two decades, they had been haunted and stolen into the night. Leaving behind nothing more than the sacrificial remains of their parents. The Sacrifice three. The blood of the Mother, the blood of the Father, and the Child. That is what was needed for them to become something cursed…a Whisper, lost on the wind. And with each loss, the town of Murkwood came closer and closer to the darkness hidden below. The lifeblood slowly draining from the town. Another sacrifice given to the unholy thing that is the Reverent Sun. Long-standing between the dark things of the world is the Clan, made up of Foxkeys and Walkers. People with the power to hold back the dark tide itself. They are the final shield standing between the demons of the West and humanity. Vera Fowley, once Vera Foxkey, was mother, widow, and homeless. What she most decidedly was not was a witch. Chased by the ghosts of her past from St.Louis into the wild west of Texas, she must face her family's legacy to save her daughter and, more importantly, the world from a whole new existence filled with demons and monsters. She must face the secrets of her past to discover the power within.

The sun set, casting hews of purple and pink over the Fowley family wagon as they rolled down the sandy lane. Peering from windows and open doors, the Murkwood residents watched them as they rolled past. Some seemed oddly hostile, while others looked on with open curiosity. Not a single child ran through the town, no babies cries could be heard through thin walls. In fact, the town was practically desolate. Even the livestock were quiet.To donate to our cause, please head to our website FoxkeyChronicles.comThe Foxkey Chronicles is an LGBTQ+ audiodrama.The Foxkey Chronicles is a horror, western audio drama.

The caravan of refuges and Fowley’s alike stood quiet and uncertain amidst the judmental eyes of the Murkwood residents. The silence was overwhelming and stagnant, just like the air. Then, out from the nicest house in the whole town stepped a woman of no more than twenty-five years. She had bright, corn-blonde hair and the biggest blue eyes Vera had ever seen. And when she saw them, the smile on her face was enough to wipe away the poor welcome of the rest of the townsfolk. She looked the group over with a slowly growing smile as she approached.

Traveling onward, the Fowley family wagon became one of many—a caravan made up of a multitude of men, women, and young adults, all chasing the same destination. Murkwood, it would seem, had become quite popular in the years between Vera's youth and adulthood.   The travelers brought their every worldly possession —plows and tools of the trade, houseware, and livestock—tossed up on wagons or carts or even on the shoulders—anything and everything a person could need or would need to survive.  If what they were doing was considered "surviving," The gathered people were thin and frail, some injured, others not. Whatever energy was left in them appeared to be used to put one foot in front of the other. Altogether, they made a sorry-looking group. Dirt-covered and grief-stricken, It came as no surprise how easily the Fowleys mixed into the crowd. Why, if you didn’t know any better, you’d think they, too, had been through hell.To donate to our cause, please head to our website FoxkeyChronicles.comThe Foxkey Chronicles is an LGBTQ+ audiodrama.The Foxkey Chronicles is a horror, western audio drama.

Night approached, and clouds strangled the moon, cloaking Ezekiel in darkness, making the encroaching night feel all the more sinister. It was a darkness that felt unnatural, with no glint of star or stirring of wind. Eerily quiet is what it was. Torches, lanterns, and fireplaces came to light as night fell, illuminating the town in spots of golden yellow, like a tapestry of stars. Beyond the town's lights, the world was cast in darkness so profound it seemed to swallow sound itself.To donate to our cause, please head to our website FoxkeyChronicles.com.The Foxkey Chronicles is an LGBTQ+ audiodrama.The Foxkey Chronicles is a horror, western audio drama.
