This made me think of the kind of stories that @talesofbritireland.bsky.social enjoys telling; in fact, I could just about hear him snarkily commenting on the husband's attitudes (and just deserts) from the off.
I love the bits of Zulu, every surprise click causing a pleasant tickle down my spine!

I don't post often on here, but I have a supernatural horror fiction podcast / audio drama, and I just wrapped up the first volume!
Think Magnus Archives, Hi Nay, and a touch of Welcome to Night Vale, but with Southern African folktales and myths - check it out if that's your vibe 🔥

Title card for the "Call to the Dark" podcast. The title is in white, chalky text against a black background, with small twinkling stars dotting the negative space. A simplistic icon of a lit match to the left of the title. The top and bottom of the image is bordered by tessellated, multi-coloured triangles.
Synopsis for the "Call to the Dark" podcast. The text reads:
Dingane Luthuli, a freshly unemployed 20-something in the northern suburbs of Cape Town, receives a box in the mail that was kept by his late father. Idle and intrigued, he embarks on a project to catalogue the contents of the box, but quickly gets more than he bargained for. Haunting secrets await in the writings and belongings of his father, and each new discovery pulls Dingane closer to the truth - to the sinister shadows that
lurk within the city he calls home.
"Call to the Dark" is a supernatural horror fiction podcast, told through short stories and epistolary pieces, and largely inspired by Southern African folktales and myths. Created, written, and directed by Sandile Dlamini.
A smaller version of the podcast's logo sits below the text, as well as various audio platform symbols with the tag "wherever you listen to podcasts".
Dingane receives a box from his late father, and an unexpected mystery unfolds.
"Call to the Dark" is a supernatural horror fiction podcast, told through short stories and epistolary pieces, and inspired by Southern African folktales and myths.
