The third part of the Monster Universe Audio Drama prologue is here! In this episode, we are introduced to Abraham Van Helsing (yes, that Van Helsing), but don’t think you have it all figured out yet. We still have a short time before we hit the pilot. However, everything you’ve heard will play into the main narrative.

The story so far: Moria Le Fanu landed in America with a dire warning (trailer #1). Nikola Tesla completed work on Wardenclyffe Tower and plans to schedule a transmission test which caused Thomas Edison to make his own alarming announcement (trailer #2).

Coming this Winter, The Monster Universe Audio Drama is a full cast radio play, featuring the vocal talents of: Andrea Laing (Adult Swim Yule Log, Atlanta, Strays) Michael Mau (A Blind Play of Social Forces, The Oval, Monarch), Emma Greene (The Harry Strange Radio Drama, Jeremiah Wilstone, Dead by Midnight) and Matt Chenoweth-Goodson (Willow of Ashes, Xenotech Rising, The Harry Strange Radio Drama Live) (full cast here); created by Tony Sarrecchia (The Harry Strange Radio Drama, the Lady Sherlock Mysteries, the Adventures of Scarlett Hood).

It’s 1914 and sweeping change blanketed America like a shroud. Small towns decayed while cites bloated like a corpse in the sun under the weight of new arrivals, both foreign and domestic. Through it all, Moria Le Fanu finds her way to New York City to seek an audience with reclusive scientist Nikola Tesla. She knew that more than rustics and immigrants made their way to America; something darker, and unnatural. And she planned to enlist Tesla to help her destroy it.

(CONTAINS SPOILERS FOR THE HARRY STRANGE RADIO DRAMA)

You asked, and we are ready to deliver.

'Tales from the Strangeverse' is a spin-off of Harry Strange set in the same universe, 18 years later, and follows the story of Harry’s daughter (played by Andrea Laing) discovering who she is while, reluctantly, picking up on the family business. Expect to hear more about this project in 2022.

But the video says 2021?

Yes, it does.

'From the Journal of Elizabeth Shaw' (FTJOES) is the transition story from the Harry Strange Radio Drama to Tales.

FTJOES takes place 2 years after (spoilers) events (cough… Mr. K… cough) stranded Harry and Elizabeth on Kolbeinsey Island.

(Continued at Harry Strange...)

It's Christmas 2005 and Harry chases a renegade elf to Atlanta. Once there he finds a very not Southern welcome from Deacon Chalk, the local occult Bounty Hunter.
