Season One: The Trials of Dr. Cadwallader
Doctor Cadwallader doesn’t want much out of life — just a civilised environment in which to enjoy his many and varied vices while continuing his half-baked investigations into the occult. Instead, he’s been given the unenviable task of reopening the Aletheian Society’s least desirable Chapter House. With only an assortment of hapless aristocrats and incomprehensible provincials to aid him, he finds himself drawn into a murky conspiracy of vicious street gangs, cursed artefacts, inhuman monstrosities and a powerful load of haggis.
Can the bickering team of misfits unravel the legacy of Hunter House in time to save Glasgow? Just what is the creature under the stairs? And what did happen to Cadwallader in Bhutan?
