About the show
The Gloom is a faux true crime fiction podcast and audio drama — starring Tobin Bell (Jigsaw, Saw franchise) as Dr. Lasher — eight episodes investigating the Night of the Filmore Four, an unsolved 1993 case that has haunted Queens, New York for thirty years.
On November 16th, 1993, four teenagers disappeared from the Filmore Psychiatric Facility in Queens Village. One body was recovered. Two children were never found. The psychiatrist on duty that night, Dr. Darlene Harrington, was taken in for questioning and has refused to speak publicly ever since.
Podcast host Samantha Williams is reopening the case. Following a trail of police interrogation tapes, 911 calls, autopsy recordings, and therapy session recordings that should never have been made public, Samantha inches toward the truth — a truth that is stranger and more terrifying than any of the official explanations.
A faux true crime fiction podcast in eight parts. For fans of Serial, Limetown, Darknet Diaries, Archive 81, and The Black Tapes — and for anyone who has ever believed that some cases stay cold for a reason.
Starring Tobin Bell (Jigsaw — Saw franchise) as Dr. Lasher and Kerry Wieder — who brought Wendy Morrow to life in Violet Hour Media's In Another Room — as Dr. Darlene Harrington. Written by Michael Ryan Assip and Peter Lancucki. Directed by Frank Merle. Executive produced by Cassie Jozefov. A Violet Hour Media production.
