The Seraphim Podcast

The Seraphim — Episode 1: The Order Above

Episode Notes

A faith-driven, elevated horror podcast series that explores the thin, unsettling line between the spiritual and the supernatural.

Across 12 cinematic episodes, The Seraphim unravels as a serialized table read that feels less like traditional audio drama and more like a descent into something ancient, intelligent, and watching. Each chapter blends character-driven storytelling with atmospheric dread, where belief is tested, truth is fragmented, and the unseen world presses uncomfortably close to our own.

Episode Summary
In the premiere episode of The Seraphim, writer and director Rob Dickehuth introduces a haunting, faith-driven supernatural world where the unseen is not distant—it is active, watchful, and already shaping human lives. 
Grounded in angelic hierarchy, spiritual warfare, and theological history, this opening chapter sets the stage for a story where the battle between good and evil is deeply personal. As characters emerge, subtle clues suggest hidden identities, divine purpose and a growing presence that is not entirely benevolent.

What begins as mystery quickly evolves into something far more unsettling: a revelation that the spiritual realm is not separate from our reality—it is already here.
