Über diesen Titel

The Midnight Dispatch presents Season 1: The Ripper & The Rift — a 12-part historical fiction thriller set in the gaslit shadows of Victorian London.

It’s 1890. The city is modernizing, but something ancient is stirring beneath the cobblestones. When a terrified woman collides with Oscar Wilde outside a theater, she sets off a chain of events that draws Wilde and his companions into a mystery far stranger than scandal or murder. As bodies begin to appear — marked with symbols no one can explain — Wilde finds himself entangled with British Intelligence, occult secrets, and a darkness that predates the Empire itself.

Blending real historical figures with supernatural intrigue, The Ripper & The Rift reimagines the Jack the Ripper murders through the eyes of artists, spies, and skeptics caught in a widening breach between reason and ritual.

Written and produced by Joe Ferguson, The Midnight Dispatch is an anthology podcast where each season explores a different time, place, and mystery — all rooted in the strange intersections of history and imagination.

    In the depths beneath London, our unlikely quartet faces their most dangerous descent yet. A trail of mysteries, rituals, and impossible phenomena has led them to a place older than the city itself — a place where reality thins and long‑buried secrets stir. As the shadows tighten and the stakes rise, Oscar Wilde, Bram Stoker, W.B. Yeats, and Harry Houdini must confront forces that test not only their courage, but the bonds that have held them together through the season.

    In this climactic finale, truths come to light, loyalties are pushed to their limits, and the cost of the journey finally reveals itself. What waits in the dark is not just a threat to London, but a reckoning for each of them.

    The end of Season One brings everything to a head — the mystery, the magic, the friendship, and the fear — in a confrontation none of them are prepared for.

    The Midnight Dispatch is a historical fiction anthology podcast blending real people, places and events with the strange and supernatural. Season 1 reimagines the Jack the Ripper murders through the eyes of famous figures who may be more than they seem.

    London’s shadows are shifting. As strange symbols surface across the city and whispers of an unseen force ripple beneath the streets, four unlikely allies—W.B. Yeats, Harry Houdini, Bram Stoker and Oscar Wilde—find themselves drawn into a mystery older than the Underground itself. Their search for a missing friend leads them deep into forgotten tunnels, buried rivers and the city’s long‑silenced memories. What they uncover will test their loyalties, their beliefs and the very limits of what London can hold in its bones.

    In this chapter of The Midnight Dispatch, history bends, legends converge and the past refuses to stay buried.

    In Harbinger’s Rite, we return to London where intellect, intuition, and imagination collide in a city humming with hidden tensions. Oscar Wilde and Harry Houdini find themselves drawn into a deepening mystery—one that blurs the boundary between reason and ritual, and forces them to confront the secrets their friend Arthur Conan Doyle may have left behind.

    This episode delves into the uneasy marriage of logic and lore, the seductive pull of forbidden knowledge, and the perilous ways belief can be shaped—and weaponized—by those who understand its power. It’s a tale of symbols and secrets, of shifting loyalties and ancient echoes, and of the fragile line between investigation and invocation.
