Every October, Infectious Dose becomes Month of the Macabre. A month-long storytelling experiment where infectious disease science is reimagined through horror, mystery, history, immersive narratives, and the unexplained.​

​

These aren't just episodes about frightening diseases. Month of the Macabre plays with how the stories themselves are told. One week might unfold like a noir mystery. Another might reimagine a classic tale as a modern outbreak, turn the Salem witch trials into a haunted journey through history and disease, or drop you inside an archaeological excavation where the scientific explanation becomes increasingly unsettling.

​

The science remains real and rigorous. The way we get there is deliciously unsettling.

​

It’s Infectious Dose storytelling with the lights turned down and the rules undone.
