Porcelain — Fexingo Horror

Fexingo

Porcelain is an anthology horror podcast where each episode is a self-contained story connected by the delicate, unsettling presence of antique dolls. Luna guides listeners through a collection of tales that explore the uncanny nature of porcelain-faced figures—dolls that seem to watch, that hold secrets in their painted eyes, that appear in places they shouldn't be. From a Victorian mansion where a collection of dolls begins to rearrange themselves at night, to a small-town antique shop where a single doll carries the weight of a forgotten tragedy, to a modern home where a child's doll begins to whisper in a language no one speaks, these stories are slow-burn and intimate, steeped in dread and the quiet horror of the familiar turned wrong. The atmosphere is one of faded elegance and creeping unease, like a room filled with glass cases and silent observers. Each episode stands alone, but all share a central motif: the doll as a vessel for something old, something patient, something that waits. Luna's narration is hushed and deliberate, drawing the listener into a world where the line between plaything and prisoner begins to blur. Open any episode, but be warned: the dolls are always watching. #PorcelainPodcast #DollHorror #AntiqueHorror #UncannyValley #SlowBurnHorror #AtmosphericHorror #NarratedHorror #AnthologyHorror #CreepyDolls #VictorianHorror #SmallTownHorror #FolkHorror #PsychologicalHorror #Horror #HorrorPodcast #FexingoHorror #StorytellingHorror #HorrorStories Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
