Archive Item 76 concerns the destruction of St. Cleer Police Station in 1983. The official report claimed no survivors. That was inaccurate. One woman, the station stenographer, Judith Hallowell walked out of Interview Room 1 moments before the entire building ignited from within. She gave a witness statement during medical observation, describing a heat event that began inside the bodies of those...

This archive item contains a single continuous field recording recovered from the crushed Zoom H6 I removed from Dr. Arlo Finch’s possession after he was found wandering the A30 in a catatonic state. What begins as a routine ambience survey at Castilly Henge quickly becomes a sequence of escalating pressure anomalies.

The dictaphone in question was brought to me after being found on the coastal path, wrapped inside an old waterproof coat.

This tape... this tape is the truth. You will hear PC Evans's f...

Investigator's log, November 6th, 2025. Case File #ZERO. Commencement of the Public Record. The evidence, in this instance, is my own. The first reel of a new public log, created as I begin the monumental task of digitising my entire collection of recordings. For years, the archive has existed in silence, a chaotic hoard of tapes detailing events that defy explanation. In this initial entry, I sta...
