Thanks to all the folks who've already supported vampire rights and/or wrongs on the Snow Blood crowdfunder, we're now just 3% away from hitting our next milestone of 80% funded, which is when I'll be revealing our next Mystery Guest Voice Actor! 

If you didn't know, Snow Blood is a sequel spin-off to Not Quite Dead, a gory horror romance audio drama about vampires. Alfie and Neige are both vampires, and they're a bit of an odd couple. Neige is here for a long time AND a good time, where Alfie is preoccupied with making vampire rights happen.

They've been living in Buenos Aires for a while at the start of the show and Alfie's been doing some experiments to figure out how vampire blood might be used to help humans. But he's also been trying to get other vampires to share their stories with the world.

It has not been going well. He has so far got zero (0) vampire stories and one (1) stalker who keeps inviting him to meet up on the other side of the world. Which would be a terrible idea. Right?

There's a pilot you can listen to here or find it by searching Not Quite Dead wherever you listen to podcasts. Snow Blood will expand on the OGs show's ideas, but as well as having loads for existing fans, it will also be a GREAT first bite of the these character for newcomers!

We have less than a quarter of our funds left to raise, which is very exciting indeed! Beyond the main funding goal, the first Stretch Goal is £3,666, and will see the episode run for Snow Blood increase from 8 episodes up to 10. 

It's really exciting to be so close to seeing more vampires in the world! Thank you so much to those of you who've been a part of this campaign so far, it really does mean the world. 

nobody else is doing it even a little bit like alfie is

🌲 @hellofromthehallowoods (206) Oughh Kellyanne has consistently been one of the most complex characters in the show and an episode entitled Atonements is SO relevant to her. I’m so glad that Jed and Russell made it out, but it sounds like the other Wicker children will continue to be a problem. Percy and Diggory’s fight was so uncomfortable, there’s so much hurt and history in all of their interactions! Like Russell, I still cling to the hope that Johannah Wicker is going to change sides and help save the day. Do it for Ingrid!!! 

👻 @tellnotalespod (S2E2.5-4) Aw man, I forgot how much some of the season two ghosts really hit you in the feelings! I can’t even imagine that family’s reaction to finding out that there ghost was the father 😭 and ep 4 was such a transformative moment for Frank and Leo’s relationship! I would seriously hate to be stuck in a car for that long with one of my bosses, though, Leo is a hero! 

🌞 Small Victories by @wgc-productions (8) THE SOBS I SOBBED. It got to the point where I nearly had to pull over, I could barely see for the tears. Oh my God 😭 I don’t even know what else to say! Amazing, amazing work from everyone involved. 

🚚  Don’t Tell Alice (1) I used to listen to Alice Isn't Dead while looking down a microscope for hours and it made everything feel a little detached from reality. It’s so fun to get that feeling back and Jasika Nicole’s voice is such a balm!! I’m already hooked back into the mystery from this first episode!! 

❄️ The NQD: Snowblood (by @hangingslothcentral) pilot is INCREDIBLE!!! I’m obsessed already. It does such a good job of setting up the stakes (hehe) for this new arc and, my God, Neige has some absolutely incredible one liners. ‘You have blown me off 6 times this month, and not in the way I would like’ has been popping into my head at inopportune moments all week!

🦭 @twelvelms (9) Another Twelvelms episode so good I was compelled to listen twice!! I feel like I love Quinn a little more every episode, her reaction to the Selkie reveal was so *her*, but her growing love for Cyan was an obvious undercurrent in it all. Ooh, Abagnale is also growing on me but THE MAN IS SUSPICIOUS, OKAY?! He has motives, I don’t understand them! The magical lore is incredibly interesting! It would make you feel pretty sick to dwell on that theory if you were a keen potion-maker. Magical veganism is the way forward! ✨ Next episode Cyan and Felix will sort some of their shit 🤞

💀 I started Our Wars Have Ended by @thesiltverses. I expected nothing less from this creative team, but what an incredible first episode!! Equal parts engaging and horrifying and already ripe with a cast of intricate and difficult characters! My seatbelt is firmly on and I am ready for the ride!
