The Department Of Midnight Trailer

The trailer for the new audio drama, The Department Of Midnight.  Experience it August 20th at departmentofmidnight.com or wherever you listen to podcasts.

Best-selling author Warren Ellis blends science fiction, folklore and horror in this dramatic mystery series.

Dark matter makes up 85% of the universe. Recent scientific theory suggests dark matter is information - a fifth form of matter - and that we can wake it up. But waking it up can let dark things out. 

James Callis is Dr. John Carnack. Five years ago, his dark matter experiments led to tragedy. His redemption is working for the Department of Midnight, investigating dangerous dark matter experiments, trying to prevent further disasters. 

But there’s a pattern. And it all leads back to him.

Dark matter isn't information. It’s the stuff of myth. It’s the Devil, John. And I finally got a job at a dark matter lab so I can make a deal with him. I know all about what happened at Wardenclyffe. Maybe it would have gone down differently if I'd have been there.

John Carnack
I was there. At Wardenclyffe. For the dark matter experiments. The names on that paper are redacted. Do you understand what I'm saying to you?

Jack Doyle
If you're positing that I have somehow been exposed to dark matter contamination, that's ludicrous on its face.
