The Arklay Files is a fan-made true-crime podcast that treats the Resident Evil universe as horrifying real-life events.Twenty-seven years after the “terrorist bombing” of Raccoon City wiped out nearly 100,000 Americans, we return to the weeks before the sky fell. Before the mansion incident. Before the outbreak. Before the government’s official story.In the summer of 1998, something monstrous began in the deep woods of the Arklay Mountains. Grisly murders. Bodies found partially eaten. Human bite marks that didn’t make sense. A string of disappearances the Arklay County Sheriff’s Department and the FBI tried desperately to explain… until those files quietly disappeared.This is the story they buried first.We treat every canon detail as cold, hard fact — then take dark liberties to make it feel terrifyingly believable. The Raccoon City bombing? A government cover-up designed to hide their dirty deal with Umbrella Pharmaceuticals. The elite STARS unit that vanished in the forest? Never a training accident. And the “animal attacks” that started it all? Something far worse.If you love true-crime podcasts like Crime Junkie, Serial, or The Black Tapes, but wish they took place inside the Resident Evil timeline, this is for you.New episodes drop every other week. We’re going back into the woods… and we’re not coming out the same.The Arklay Files — because some secrets are too big to stay buried.
