Hey there Hikers,

The deeper we’ve gone into these woods, the more this project has taken on a life of its own. The stories we’ve found in the shadows between the pines are darker, stranger, and more demanding than we ever expected—and we want to share them with you in the best way possible.

But the station lights flicker more often these days, and keeping them burning isn’t cheap. So we’re opening our Patreon to help fuel the next chapter of Acadia After Dark. If you’ve enjoyed the journey so far, we’d be honored to have you with us as we venture even deeper.

I’ve opened The Lantern Holder Tier on Patreon — a quiet corner of the woods for those who want more than the stories I share publicly. Inside, you’ll find the first entries of The Lantern Logbook, early access to new episodes, and digital postcards from my nighttime wanderings around Acadia.

If you’ve ever wanted to step deeper into the folklore, the research, and the strange moments that happen when the coast goes dark… this is your invitation.

Keep those lanterns lit and stay safe out there hikers…


These woods hold space for all who enter — every shade of skin, every shape of love, every story carried on tired feet. The old spirits here have never turned anyone away.

Yet in these days, when our neighbors are hunted and our kin are threatened, pride has taken on a new shape. It has grown claws. It has grown a spine of iron.

And so we honor that transformation.

The Wrath Month Collection has been summoned for a short season. Claim it as armor. Claim it as testimony. Step into the darkness not as prey, but as something the darkness should fear.
