Dark Tides

Warwick spins a tale for Heath about one of his earliest and darkest missions he ever had with Tyr. We are thrown into a story of mystery, of once great friends now almost strangers. Mercy's Creek finds itself caught up in a storm it can't hope to weather. How will our cast handle this situation? Can they save their town? Can they even save themselves? All of this and more in the first episode of The Ever-Pleasant Mr Bates!

Content Warning: Swearing, mature scenes and horror themes!

The Ever-Pleasant Mr Bates is part of Dark Tides season 3, a collection of shorter shows that will be earing every other week over this year while we prepare for returning to Ernest and Allister in season 4. Mr Bates is a prequel series that expands the law and world of Dark Tides and begins building up to the next proper season of Dark Tides. This show has been created by Chester Lidden over the past year. There is no need to listen to the previous two seasons of Dark Tides to understand Mr Bates but it does help to have that knowledge.
