The Bellport Theater on The Air Presents
The Department of Midnight
Best-selling author, Warren Ellis, blends science fiction, folklore, and horror in this dramatic mystery series.
Dark matter makes up 85% of the universe. Recent scientific theory suggests dark matter is information—a fifth form of matter—and that we can wake it up. But waking it up can let dark things out.
James Callis is Dr. John Carnack. Five years ago, his dark matter experiments led to tragedy. His redemption is working for the Department of Midnight, investigating dangerous dark matter experiments, trying to prevent further disasters. But there’s a pattern.
And it all leads back to him.
