TENDRIL: The Banshee Chronicles

Kaitlyn Radel & Ryan Borses

TENDRIL is a radio play-style narrative, set in the year 2287, which follows the epic tale of Cade, Kronist, and Switch: soldiers in the paranormal division of a futuristic Earth's military who face otherworldly threats. As they face down a galaxy of ghosts, demons, and monsters grotesque beyond belief, our brave heroes stare boldly into the abyss, and hope it doesn't have teeth. Based on a homebrew campaign for Monster of the Week, TENDRIL is a full-scale audio production with original music, lovingly crafted sound design, and professional-quality voice acting. It's like Futurama meets the X-Files. Or Buffy meets Star Trek.
