Maddison Atkins is the title of two web video series incorporating Alternate Reality Games, both created by Jeromy Barber.

The first of these, now known as "Maddison Atkins 1.0", debuted in 2007. After a while the story tailed off and the characters stopped posting videos; the videos have since been taken down, although transcripts are available on Maddypedia, the Maddison Atkins wiki.

The series was given a complete Continuity Reboot in 2009, featuring the same actors but following a slightly different storyline. This current version is sometimes known as "Maddison Atkins 2.0" to distinguish it from the original. It may be watched here.

Both versions of Maddison Atkins tell the story of the eponymous Maddison and her friend Adam Wilmott as they attempt to make a film for a college project. They receive a mysterious message tied to a pigeon, and are drawn into a strange world of codes and mysteries.
