The Archivist's Agency - Part 1 - The Warlock

Spectrum Community School’s A/V Club presents a new installment of the Lesser Known Radio Drama series entitled “The Archivist’s Agency”.

In the small city of Victoria, British Columbia, a cataloguing librarian is sent into the bowels of the city’s archives to begin sorting through long-forgotten documents, reports, and recordings for an agency that has returned after many years of sitting idle. Its once shuttered office has been reopened by a unnamed benefactor who has given the agency’s new team of investigators a mandate to solve cold case files of local phenomena that have become urban myths and ghost stories.

But these stories of the supernatural all have their seeds planted in some sliver of reality.
