Trigger Warnings: Depictions of gaslighting, implied abuse, body horror, medical examinations, and a generally uncomfortable aura

Disclaimer: Due to the mature themes prevalent in this audio drama, Smile Grove is intended for audiences 16 and up. Viewer discretion is advised.
Summary: Smile Grove is a semi-serialized dramatic horror podcast focused on exploring mental health, and the fears those fighting against it might experience.
Nikolai, a weary husk of a once-hopeful person left to corrode in their own mental dissonance, Storm, an uprising troublemaker intent on seizing the attention of those around him, Grey, a precocious teen who struggles to grapple with what he doesn't understand, and Tida, a fearful girl who finds light in dark places yet grapples with her own inner demons, are brought into a mental facility with the hopes of reversing traumas and healing old wounds.
Though perpetual meddling from a less than virtuous psychiatrist, Dr. Grover, and even the vile wills of those who observe, the patients soon learn that the opposite is bound to happen.
