Palimpsest

Palimpsest Palimpsest Productions specializes in audio drama and live audio events, with occasional forays into film and immersive theater.

“Palimpsest is audio fiction’s best foray into the Gothic.”
--Wil Williams, Wil Williams Reviews

“Palimpsest is perfect for those who like their horror with a little Shirley Jackson vibe.”
--Tor.com

“Palimpsest is a masterclass in atmosphere. I absolutely cried.”
--Elena Fernández-Collins, AudioDramatic

“Palimpsest [...] manages to create a slow burn of dread and sorrow over its episodes. Th

is is largely due to the tightly wrought storyline and Hayley Heninger's magnificent performance. A wonderful take on the classic ghost story genre."
--Paul Bae, The Black Tapes, The Big Loop

“A spooky and melancholic and ultimately devastating tale, beautifully written.”
--Jacquelyn Landgraf, It Makes a Sound

“The story is poetic and searching, instantly friendly, quickly creepy, and totally addictive.”
--Asheville’s Mountain Xpress

Our Story

Palimpsest is a bi-weekly audio drama about memory, identity, and the things that haunt us.

Season One tells the story of Anneliese, who is still mourning the death, years earlier, of her sister Claire. The story is presented as Anneliese’s audio notes to her former therapist, working through her feelings about her sister. The recordings also begin to document the apparent hauntings in her new apartment, and Anneliese's possibly flawed memories of Claire. You can binge Season One now on your favorite podcatcher.

Season Two tells a different story, set in another place and time. Episode One drops Tuesday, September 4th, 2018. Palimpsest is written by Jamieson Ridenhour and performed by Hayley Heninger, with original music by Ian Ridenhour. Our logo was created by Megan Lee. Our project is fueled by our friends and Patrons.
