Welcome to Walking Dread, the podcast that explores the terrifying depths of the unknown! In today's episode, prepare to be submerged in a tale of ancient guardians and the consequences of human curiosity.
Get ready for a deep dive into terror as we follow the crew of the Leviathan, a cutting-edge research vessel exploring the deepest trenches of the ocean. When their sonar picks up a mysterious object far below the safe limits, their scientific curiosity leads them to an encounter that will forever change their lives... and the fate of humanity.
Imagine this: a colossal, scaled being, smooth as obsidian, emerges from the darkness. Its bioluminescent glow hints at an age beyond comprehension. This is no mere sea creature; it's a consciousness as vast as the ocean itself, an ancient guardian disturbed from its eons-long slumber.
The crew's attempt at communication triggers a catastrophic chain of events. Whirlpools form, the Leviathan is pulled into the abyss, and the world above is thrown into chaos. Tsunamis crash against coastlines, cities disappear beneath the waves, and humanity faces extinction.
But there may be a way to appease the enraged entity. One man, Captain Thorne, must descend into the abyss to offer a sacrifice—his own mind. He will become the ocean's voice, forever bound to its will.
Will this ultimate sacrifice be enough to save humanity from the wrath of the awakened abyss? Tune in to find out!
