    Nestled in the hills and trees of the North of England is a tiny town, invisible to passing hikers and planes flying overhead. Twelvelms is part of a secret world just out of sight of the one we all live in; a dangerous magical world full of curses and spells beyond our imagination, and hidden histories which loop and twist like the knotted roots of ancient trees. With rewards on offer including a prospectus for Twelvelms University which is jam-packed with detail and world-building, an immersive journalling experience which will provide you with a journalling activity once a month for entire year, welcome boxes filled to the brim with Twelvelms goodies, and a lite RPG discord server run by the creator of the show, there’s something for everyone. The campaign has also built carbon off-setting into the production budget, so you know we care about the planet as well as the podcast!

  • 25. Goose 11:47

    A lead finally comes to DI Dave in his search for Alice Jones, but it’s not from where Shelly expected. This new information throws everything they know about U-Co and what happened at Huddau Bay into chaos, and both Shelly and Dave are left with the troubling possibility that perhaps they were wrong about just about everything.

    Alice is on a mission to convince Sophie to do something she is convinced will save Robin’s life, but she doesn’t say what. Shelly trawls through the notes both she and Alice have put together to find this key piece of information, in hopes it is the final piece of the puzzle.

  • 22. Golden Pheasant 17:14

    Grappling with the troubling possibility that U-Co’s technology could not only bring people back from the dead, but create digital ghosts, Shelly wonders how many of the voices in the recordings are real, and what ‘real’ even means in the context of people, blended with machinery and code.


    The line between man and machine is blurring; anyone who has seen a photograph of Robin Jaeger could tell you that. But the distinction may be even cloudier than either Shelly or Dave first realised.

Clockwork Bird

Or the Modern Icarus

Clockwork Bird is a sci-fi, horror audio drama about humans, hubris, and humanity. 

Follow Shelly Croft, who’s been drafted in to sort the case notes for bringing U-Co to trail for medical malpractice, only she is certain their crimes run much deeper. Under the watchful, but unseeing, eye of Dectective Inspector Dave Hughes, Shelly decides she must be the one to bring the truth of the horrors committed by U-Co to the world 

As she delves into the mystery of Robin Jaeger, a man half-made of carbon-fiber. Robin is the poster boy for U-Co, the company that designed his synthetic limbs, but something strange is afoot. Robin has been legally dead for more than a decade and nobody has seen him for almost a year. 

Shelly soon discovers that U-Co’s crimes run much deeper than medical malpractice. As she listens to recordings of Dr Sophie Bennett, the scientist who designed Robin’s limbs, and the mysterious Alice Jones, she begins to formulate a grim picture of neglect, imprisonment, and maybe even murder. 

This podcast is full of suspense, horror, and mystery.
