In a borderland city positioned between the mundane and the arcane, an order of mailmen delivers mail in the strange hours. They are the lurking figures of the night. They are also the bored, unappreciated, working class. . . who can’t but help themselves to the secrets of everyone’s mail. And thus we have The Night Post. The episodes consist of a string of randomly read letters that show the weird, wonderful, horrifying heart of the citizens Gilt City. The mystery of the missing mailman coworker. And the mystery that is Gilt City. As much as the borderland city, this audio drama strikes a balance between the eerie and the commonplace. Bizarre phenomenon (sinking houses, pale hands, thick fog) constantly threaten our three mailmen (two long timers, one replacement). But these occurrences are as frequent as barking dogs along a mail route. And so, the characters are as eerily calm as they should be frightened. The deadpan delivery of the voice actors suit the characters and the story. But their nonchalance can also come across as emotionless monotone. Or simply, amateurish, off cadence. But then, the characters read another letter. A sinister “spooky” letter one episode changes to a meaningful love letter the next. There’s a sense of fissure, like a cracked seal on a long suppressed emotion held within a heretofore unopened letter. And the strength of the writing shines through. While other dark oddities spill out as well.

I came to this show because I had heard one of the VAs on another show, and I wasn't disappointed at all finding The Night Post. I love the format, and it really hits the spot that shows like Midnight Burger does. You won't go wrong with this one.

I was on the hunt for something to chase The Magnus Archives, I Am in Eskew, and the Silt Verses. This low-key, uncomplicated storytelling and pleasant voices was exactly what I needed. Great job! Looking forward to listening to all these letters.

Awesome show, premise, with a great cast of actors.

Super original like Midnight Burger. No ads and no blaring audio. The characters are the best part!

I would like to give this podcast 4.5 stars overall. While the story and ideas in it are worth 5 stars, unfortunately the voice acting does bring it down a bit. At tense emotional moments there isn’t quite enough of that tension coming across through the voice acting I feel. It gets a bit too script like, you lose some immersion because it feels like actors reading lines than actual characters speaking. I decided to give this 5 stars anyway because this is a small team and there’s clearly a lot of passion and love in this podcast. I also think the story they are telling is interesting enough that the slightly inexperienced voice acting does not detract that much from the experience. Overall it’s interesting and definitely worth a listen, especially if you enjoy good lgbt content.

I am very into the mysterious goings-ons and figuring out how it all ties together, as well as the characters, hence the still relatively high rating, but dialogue is very monotone and often poorly executed/acted, which makes it pretty difficult to get into the story. Could just be me… great writing though!

The Night Post is a beautifully written and executed podcast with an interesting storyline and original themes. This podcast is completely unique and one of a kind in a good way. It’s a very easy podcast to binge and an enjoyable listen. -Dreadwood Press Radio family

I’m enjoying this, it’s creepy and features multiple characters versus the same narrator each time. My issue is that for someone with sensory processing problems the saliva noise from clementine’s narration makes it so hard to listen to especially with headphones.

I love love this podcast! The characters are fantastic, funny, and personable. Highly recommend!

Now I’m a sad possum. Spooky without being scary, funny without being obvious.

Great podcast - dim the lights when you listen. This one is one to take slow and enjoy. The voice acting is top notch.

In an audio drama culture where Surrealism, abstraction and Spooky vibes seems to be the norm, The Night Post finds some way to set itself apart from the crop. With talented voice performances, strong ambience, and a perfectly tailored soundtrack, the City of Gilt is as tangible as it is Haunting. Can’t wait to continue listening!

My first monologue-like audio drama and boy does it not disappoint! Each episode spins a mysterious little treat in the form of letters that the main characters are delivering all the while they're solving their own little mystery of the disappearance of a friend. My mind is constantly trying to learn more about this interesting world and I'm excited to see what Season 2 brings.

I really loved this podcast! The storyline, the vibes, the characters, the mystery, all excellent. I can’t wait for season 2!

With a film noir flavor and a touch of Ray Bradbury, this suspenseful paranormal audio drama will mesmerize you. This show builds suspense well, adds new layers to the mystery with every episode, and provides a nice cliffhanger at the end of each chapter to keep you coming back for more.

Surreal story, interesting characters, neat world to explore.

A fascinating plot that keeps you on your toes, played out by a compelling and diverse cast of characters, all set against a gorgeously terrifying Southern gothic backdrop. This show is incredible, and it’ll pull you in.

THIS PODCAST IS SO GOOD! It’s one of my favorites. It’s a tantalizing story with great subplots and even better characters. The diversity is wonderful, and the story is deliciously fun. If you love horror and queer stories, you NEED to check this show out. Love it! Can’t wait for season 2.

Turned this on to listen to while cleaning. It wasn’t until the end of episode 3, I realized I had just been standing in place with a sponge in my hand.

My curiosity is piqued! I'm drawn by the monologues into a story that I feel as mystified by as those telling it, looking forward to further glimpses of the supernatural and fragments of understanding. It's a murky mystery in a compelling setting - can't wait for more.

I’m excited to see where this podcast’s story goes. It’s a super interesting premise, and I cant wait to learn more about the mysterious Night Post.
