Strange Tales of the Unexplained

Show Notes

Three luminous visitors tell Donavan Hale the world will end in fourteen days. By night twelve, his wife is calling the Blackwood Institute.

Donavan says the visitors have chosen him to prevent a catastrophe. Claire hears unfamiliar voices behind his workshop door. Tools rise from the bench, and an unplugged receiver begins to speak.

Conrad Blackwood, Eddie Szabo and Roxie Boudreau follow the warning from the Hale family's garden to an old observatory. With the deadline approaching, they have to discover what the visitors actually want—and what happens if Donavan follows their instructions.

Fourteen Days until the Apocalypse is the third Blackwood Institute investigation from Strange Tales of the Unexplained: a complete full-cast supernatural horror story within a continuing series.

When the familiar turns predatory, even the safest places become evidence.
