In a world pulverized by incessant tornadoes, civilization collapsed under the relentless weight of the storms. What began with the monstrous, never-dissipating Bowman Tornado-kicking off a chain reaction of ever-enlarging twisters-now leaves its last survivors navigating a landscape in perpetual disaster. Amidst all the wreckage, scattered recordings that would later be known as "The Bowman Archives" tell gruesome tales of destruction and the unglued minds of human beings. The tapes show the horrible effects of the tornadoes and the rising feeling of fear as survivors turn to face the fact that these storms may be something more than mere natural disasters. "It just keeps growing"-that's what people say, staring out in horror, probably the most fitting epitome for their fear and confusion as they watch the world spiral into chaos. Where the tornados come from, nobody knows; some whispers point to malevolent powers or experimental technology gone wrong. The Bowman Tapes dives headfirst into a sweaty cocktail of post-apocalyptic survival, psychological horror, and supernatural mystery, meandering along the way through explorations of the limits of human endurance and the terrifying realization that the greatest threat to the characters may not be the storms at all but rather reality and sanity themselves unraveling. Inspired by TV show "Lost"
