Amazon Sets Premiere for Podcast-Inspired Lore

The Amazon original Lore is slated to launch on October 13 on Prime Video.

Based on the podcast of the same name, which has an average of 5 million monthly listens, the anthology series presents tales inspired by real people and events that have led to our modern-day myths and legends. The series combines documentary footage with cinematic scenes to explore these stories. Executive producers are Ben Silverman (The Office), Howard T. Owens (The Biggest Loser), Gale Anne Hurd (The Walking Dead), Brett-Patrick Jenkins (Face Off), Glen Morgan (The X-Files), Jon Halperin and Mark Mannucci (A Year in Space).

“Lore is a unique hybrid series that presents meticulously researched true-life tales through a variety of mediums in order to surprise and delight, and even unsettle,” said Conrad Riggs, the head of unscripted at Amazon originals. “We are thrilled to once again provide Prime members unprecedented access into a world they thought they knew.”

Lore is produced by Propagate Content and Valhalla Entertainment.
