'This is the Scarlet Vault. Hidden in a secret realm. Only I have the key.
Stored away here, in the rust-red rooms, are items too powerful, too dangerous to exist.
You may consider me the protector and curator of this abominable museum of terrors.
Every item stored within is drenched in horror.
Every item, a weapon in the wrong hands.
Every item has a story.
Perhaps you would like to hear one? Oh good. Shall we begin?'
Tales from the Scarlet Vault is a new 'talking book' style show available for free from podcast stores. It's weird and unsettling, so expect some sexual references, bad language and mature themes in this British anthology written and directed by Jason Malvern.
