OrWhateverMovies, the weekly movie-review podcast hosted by real-life siblings Wesley and Iris Ichishita, is proud to announce the launch of its highly anticipated limited-series audio documentary, Powers of Darkness, debuting October 2025 across all major podcast platforms.
A Myth Within a Mystery:
Think you know Dracula?… Think again.
When a literary scholar unearthed a 1901 Icelandic version of Dracula – not a translation, but a radically altered narrative with entirely new characters, darker political themes, and a haunting twist – OrWhateverMovies knew it had to dig deeper.
What began as curiosity has evolved into The Powers of Darkness Podcast, a cinematic investigative series that dives into this obscure variant and the implications it holds for the history of Gothic literature.
Hosted by Familiar Voices:
In partnership with Dacre Stoker (yes, that Stoker), Wesley and Iris Ichishita, known for their entertaining 30-minute deep dives into everything from cult classics to contemporary blockbusters, bring their jousting sibling rapport to a far more mysterious and haunting narrative.
Availability:
Powers of Darkness launches in October 2025 and will be available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, and all major platforms. Fans can visit the dedicated limited-series page athttps://orwhatevermovies.com/limited-series/ for background, supplemental reading recommendations, and buy links for featured editions such as Powers of Darkness: The Lost Version of Dracula (by Hans de Roos) and the Swedish Mörkrets makter.
