Season 4, Episode 1: The Director’s Cut of Damnation

In the ancient chalk cellars of Aÿ-Champagne, a visionary director awakens in a purgatory of his own design. Forced to “reshoot” the six defining moments of his life, Étienne Gauthier must confront the narratives he crafted to justify violence, betrayal, ambition, and cowardice.

This is not a story about hell.It is a story about authorship. And what happens when the lie edits itself out.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/pagan-s-scary-stories--6784124/support.Pagan’s Scary Stories is an original scripted horror anthology created and written by Robert Jerome Pagan.
