    Jun 30 2025
    What happens when the fabric of reality begins to fray—and no one notices? In this haunting episode, hosts Otis Jiry and Malcolm Blackwood guide you through five sinister stories from acclaimed author Micah Edwards, including two brand-new debuts. Within these tales, familiar places twist out of shape, strangers appear where friends should be, and silence spreads like rot through the spaces people used to care about. From overlooked grief to creeping dread behind the walls, from a harmless glance at the sun to the echo of footsteps in a vanished stairwell—each story peels back another layer of the world you thought you knew.

    Jun 23 2025
    Some beliefs illuminate. Others consume. In this unnerving anthology of five original tales, devotion turns dangerous, rituals go awry, and conviction becomes the sharpest blade of all. Step into the minds of those who trust too blindly, obey too devoutly, and cling too tightly to gods—whether old, new, or entirely monstrous. From sunken altars to whispered prophecies, this episode explores the terrifying lengths people will go to in the name of faith. You may enter seeking truth. You’ll leave questioning everything.

    S17E14 - "When Reality Tears" – Scary Stories Told in the Dark
    Jun 16 2025
    Step carefully—tonight, the veil between worlds is thinner than you think. In this special feature episode, five chilling tales from author Ross Tyson invite you to peer through the cracks in reality… and glimpse the horrors hiding just beyond. An isolated ritualist confronts an ancient tide. A journey for closure stumbles into a haunted legacy. A haunted house show starts recording more than contestants. An old VHS collection reveals secrets not meant for human eyes. And deep below the ocean’s surface, something awakens. As the familiar unravels, and truth twists out of shape, one question echoes through every story: What happens when the world you know stops making sense? Narrated by Otis Jiry and Malcolm Blackwood, and featuring selections from Tyson’s forthcoming collection When Reality Tears, this episode is a must-listen descent into psychological horror, creeping dread, and the terror of slipping between the seams of existence. Reality breaks tonight. Will you?

I am putting this one away after 20 minutes. There are so many ads before and after a brief moment of actual story. :-(

Took a Long Time to get to the Story

I was not looking for a Dr Seuss story. Ridiculous and childish overdone rhyming. I hope this was a kids attempt at a story.

Really?
