I'm really impressed with this story so far, I just listened to Alice isn't Dead and this is so much better, the characters feel more real and the episodes don't stop after 15 minutes repeating the same advertisements...I love it

I went into this thinking it was going to be amazing! I started watching and it was really boring... At FIRST...then I kept listening and it was actually really good!! I am so far on episode 6 and I love it! i like how it sounds like a real person hunting down this crazy video rather than an actor, acting it out! Bravo Shudder!

Video Palace is part suspense mystery, part nostalgia dipped horror. Wonderful acting, music, and sound. Worth the listen. The ending does have lose ends, but sometimes horror leaves you with unanswered questions. I honestly think the ending is fine as is. The bonus context is, tonally different. They are excerpts from an audiobook, so they don’t have the same audio production as the podcast. I would try out one but if you don’t like it just skip it. This was a Shutter original, and will most likely not get a season two. So as long as you are okay with a few unanswered questions, give it a listen. Its worth it.
