Based on the short story by Stephen King, Strawberry Spring is a scripted podcast set against the backdrop of the sixties revolution on the campus of New Sharon College. We follow a generation of students who don't trust authority, the futile efforts of the local police, and a young, determined reporter as he chases the bloody trail of Springheel Jack, an unrelenting, modern-day Jack the Ripper. After vanishing and leaving his murders unsolved, Jack is back - along with a new Strawberry Spring, a weather pattern with an unusual fog bank that rolls in every eight years. Using the fog to hide his tracks, he taunts New Sharon with fresh kills, each murder more violent than the last. The 8-episode season stars Garrett Hedlund, Milo Ventimiglia, Sydney Sweeney, Herizen Guardiola, Al Madrigal, Ken Marino, and Brec Bassinger.2026 iHeartMedia, Inc. © Any use of this intellectual property for text and data mining or computational analysis including as training material for artificial intelligence systems is strictly prohibited without express written consent from iHeartMedia Drama & Plays

I definitely agree with the other reviewers that the sound effects/music in this podcast just don't work well. Obviously, it can be difficult to portray an inner monolog via audio, and this just wasn't successful.
It's also really disappointing that they made the "twist" sooo obvious in the podcast. By the second half of the first episode, you know what's going on! This is NOT the way the story is written, where the twist is a true surprise. I definitely recommend the short story instead.

Read the Short Story Instead

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
The usual Stephen King psycho horror tropes with trite dialogue and some REALLY bad acting, especially the women.
Surely there are TALENTED out-of-work actors who will work cheaply.

Okay diversion

Good story poorly executed. There were many ways they could have adapted the story to a performance. They chose poorly. Actors were good though.
