Dark Tome

Author: Realm

What if there was a book that literally opened up doorways to other worlds? Where would it lead, and could you handle what you found on the other side? Cassie, a teen that's having trouble fitting in at school, is about to find out. One day, after she wraps up community service at a local hospital, she stumbles out of the basement of a spooky bookshop and into a story set on a devil's staircase in a remote Italian village.

The Devil's Chair
Episode 5
Thursday, 16 July, 2026

Dearbhla Ashe always wanted a career in comedy, and suffered hard to get as far as she has - a nightly show in a dilapidated hotel on a sleepy coastal town in Maine. It might be enough, but the appearance of a young, new comedic star forces her to choose whether to foster new talent or fight for her own position on stage. The Dark Tome reopens with an original work of audio horror, THE DEVIL'S CHAIR, written and performed by Irish playwright and actress⁠ Méabh de Brún⁠ (The Silt Verses, Secret of St. Kilda). THE DEVIL'S CHAIR originally aired on Undertow, Realm's podcast of the weird and the wicked - check out Season 12 (Familiar Haunts) if you like what you hear. Written by and starring Méabh de Brún. Directed by Fred Greenhalgh. Produced by Fred Greenhalgh and Ella Watts. Dialogue editing, sound design, music by Katharine Seaton. Recorded at Soundcaster Studios in Dublin Ireland. A Dagaz Media Production. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
