FEED DROP | The Diaries of Netovicius The Vampire

During this mid-season break, we'd love to introduce you to one of our most favorite shows: The Diaries of Netovicius The Vampire by the wonderful Hugo Martin Pierre [https://www.hugopierremartin.com/]! Netovicius is an intimate audio diary of the titular character (that also features a very colorful wider cast) as we follow the 978 year old Neto to his new home and new life in Woonsocket, Rhode Island. Netovicius is currently raising funds for future episodes - so if you've enjoyed this episode, please consider supporting the show! If you're a Valorant fan and would like a customized voicemail from Frenchman Chamber himself, or a special voice note from our favorite vampire, you can check out Hugo's Streamily here [https://streamily.com/hugopierremartin]. You can also support Hugo and the show by spreading the word, recommending Netovicius to your friends or online, and/or dropping a rating & review! Netovicius or Neto for short is an artist first, a vampire second, but for now he's being kicked out of his historic Beacon Hill, Boston Mass attic apartment and having to relocate to an abandoned building in Woonsocket Rhode Island. After almost 1000 years of life, you'd think he could find a little peace, but it's only a matter of time before the past comes calling. A story about vampires but ultimately about recovery, from trauma, from addictions, even from cults. Brought to you by Hugo Pierre Martin and a cast known for projects like Valorant, Overwatch, Diablo IV and more. A dyslexia-friendly transcript of this episode is available here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1FKBX4qfOHXg7BFz19sZlyd9v7hm6f3ZzL037cBsq13E/edit?usp=sharing [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1FKBX4qfOHXg7BFz19sZlyd9v7hm6f3ZzL037cBsq13E/edit?usp=sharing] Strangekind Studio is a not-for-profit collective that spotlights diverse, intersectional stories and characters.
