10.5: SPICEBUSH

What flashes before your eyes as you die? Memories, thoughts big and small that nested somewhere in your brain, echoes you ignored. But in those final flashes, the silliest things can be brought to the forefront: Unimportant conversations, odd moments, even cases you never put that much importance in. Now, that last one only really applies if you work in a detective agency, to be fair. Sometimes small things make an outsized impression. But memories are malleable, fallible, easily made and easily broken. When you're running through them, how much of them can you trust? They twist and turn and bend and break with only the slightest amount of pressure. Do you understand? Rhys? Can you hear me? Rhys? Please wake up, please.

Beatrice Ashe has a quiet life as an assistant at the Woodbine Agency, a small detective firm in the east end of Toronto. But things change for her quickly when she is brutally attacked and left near death. Now, her boss Grace Hawthorne has a choice to make: Let Bea die... or give her a second chance. A second chance that brings Bea into a new world of shadow. Woodbine is a show about monsters, mysteries, new beginnings, and new bodies. What would you do if you found yourself in a world you never knew existed? What would you do if you had another chance to get justice? How far would you go to find the truth? And are you willing to figure all these out on your lunch break, because there are cases coming in and the Mothman can only wait so long for answers... WOODBINE is a new podcast by the creators of the award-winning horror fiction podcast Parkdale Haunt. Listen to Parkdale Haunt seasons 1-3 below, and subscribe for new episodes of Woodbine. PARKDALE HAUNT: Ever since Judith’s lifelong best friend, Claire Sterback, inherited a house from a biological family she never knew, things have begun to change. Claire has begun to change. It isn’t just that the house is full of cryptic notebooks, ominous scribblings on the wall, and has a basement that is colder than it should be. It isn’t just that Claire abruptly up and left her live-in boyfriend and is now being stalked by a psychopathic realtor. Claire is… off. As she gets closer to a secret at the heart of the old house in the Toronto neighbourhood of Parkdale, she is also getting closer to losing herself. After Claire goes missing - with the help of co-worker-turned-friend-Owen - Judith vies to track her down, even if it means diving into a history that may have been better left untouched.
