The Monster Hunters
Definitely Human·60 episodes
Take a trip back to swinging London in the early 1970s and meet Roy Steel, ex-big game hunter, and Lorrimer Chesterfield, a brain in the shape of a man. Together they are The Monster Hunters. Their mission: to protect the country from vampires, werewolves and a whole pantheon of unmentionable terrors! Taking its cue from the classic period of British horror and adventure, the 1960s and 70s, The Monster Hunters is a comedy adventure series written by and starring Peter Davis and Matthew Woodcock. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Why listen
The Monster Hunters is a full-cast British comedy adventure that lovingly spoofs 1960s and 70s horror, occult thrillers, and square-jawed pulp heroes. You get theatrical performances, period pastiche, absurd monster lore, and a recurring duo whose confidence often outruns their competence. It is a strong pick for listeners who like scripted comedy, vintage horror flavor, and audio drama that feels closer to a radio play than a chat show.
