Borrasca is a horror audio drama and podcast series written by Rebecca Klingel and based on her short stories of the same name, which she published on Reddit under the pen name C.K. Walker in 2015 and 2016. The series stars Cole Sprouse and is produced by QCODE. The first season ran from May 25 to July 14, 2020, while the second season ran from October 6 to November 10, 2022.
Premise
At age 12, Sam moves with his family to the former mining town of Drisking, Missouri. He befriends two local kids named Kyle and Kimber, who help him get used to bizarre things that are treated as normal by the townspeople—strangest of all is the occasional loud grinding noise in the distance which supposedly emanates from Borrasca, described only as "a place where bad things happen". When Sam's sister Whitney disappears a few months later, five years pass without answers until more people suddenly start disappearing. Sam, Kyle, and Kimber investigate why so many residents have disappeared over the years, why the remaining townspeople seem not to care, and how the disappearances appear to be connected to the abandoned mines on a nearby mountain.
Production
"Borrasca" was originally released as a four-part short story on the Reddit page r/nosleep in 2015, and Klingel expanded the story with a fifth part in 2016. "Borrasca" won r/nosleep's awards for both Best Series and Scariest Story in 2015. After the story went viral, filmmaker Mike Flanagan hired Klingel to join the writing team for his Netflix horror series The Haunting of Hill House, The Haunting of Bly Manor, and The Fall of the House of Usher.
The podcast series was originally released on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, and YouTube, and was later also released on other platforms.
