Tonight, we’ll take a little trip to the former tourist attraction that is The Salton Sea.

The story behind this location is a long one to tell, and tonight’s story will cover some of it, but imagine a fading community centered around a once beautiful lake, whose shores are now marred by toxic clouds, high salinity and farming chemicals.

Not many things still live in the Salton Sea, but there is one thing you should be aware of. It stalks the shorelines around dark, and it fixes you in place with its sickly yellow stare.

This story is called Something Horrifying Lives in the Salton Sea, and was written by JLGoodwin1990

Tonight, we’ll hear another story from Kris West, author of The Whisper Tree series!

Our story follows an ordinary suburban man who takes his dog out for a walk behind schedule one night after a late dinner, he discovers his elderly neighbor shuffling down to the town junkyard. Innocent enough.

But he notices that his old neighbor makes the same trip every night, and is always carrying something which he delivers to a mysterious somebody, or something that lives in the junkyard.

This story is called Old Jasper Keeps Visiting the Town Junkyard, and was written by Kris West.

Denizens of the night, welcome to another episode of the macabre; the terrifying.

Tonight, I’ve got 4 back to back Halloween horror stories lined up for you, courtesy of Weird-Suggestion-152!

First up, we’ve got a story set in Appalachia! It’s called “In Deep Appalachia, Halloween Night Comes with Rules”.

After that, we’ll hear about a Halloween potluck gone sideways, in the story “The Year my Office’s Halloween Potluck ended in Horror”.

Then we’ll follow a young man as he is stalked on Halloween night, in “Last Halloween I was Stalked by the Devil.

And rounding out the collection we have “What I Saw on Halloween in 1998 still haunts me”, where a group of young boys learn that not every house welcomes trick or treaters.

A special thank you to the author for generously allowing us to enjoy these stories. And without further ado, let’s begin our descent into terror!

Tonight, we’ll make another visit to the sleepy little town where evil stirs, Brighton!

Our tale for this evening will stir up some strong autumn feelings in many listeners. You’ll get the whole package—town fairs with carnival lights and tents; raking leaves into big piles, a cool wind that slips through the trees during a twilight that comes earlier and earlier.

Oh! It almost escaped me! But who could forget the coverup of a horrific crime in a small town? Who could forget urban legends that turn out to be real? And who could forget that delicious fall feeling when the skeletons in your closet come out to play?

This story is called “A Wind Through the Leaves”, and was written by A.G. Hilton

Tonight, we’ll hear two stories from Zeeshan Ali. The first one follows a house cleaner who finds a little something EXTRA at one of his jobs. And the second follows a woman, mourning a loved one, who begins to notice strange things happening around her home.

These stories are called “I Found a Priest’s Diary from 1910, and “I Think There’s Something Wrong with my Reflection.” Both of which were written by Zeeshan Ali

Tonight, I’ll be reading you stories as you drift off to sleep, with the sound of some relaxing rain and distant, rumbling thunder.

I have prepared over two and a half hours of new stories for you, after which the rain and thunder will continue for some time, until they also slowly fade out and leave you in a deep and profoundly restful sleep.

I want to thank Justine Perry for allowing me to narrate her stories, and the late, great Clifford Simak and Carl Jacobi for giving us “The Street That Wasn’t There”. Enjoy these stories, and may you sleep happily and restfully.

Magnigame, School Photogaph, and Date Night were all written by Justine Perry.

An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge was written by Ambrose Bierce.

Tonight, we’ll visit a classic story that I am ashamed to admit I had not experienced before now!

I was hunting through horror stories in the public domain so I could compile a long horror video for sleep for you! I began to read this story in a more measured, compressed delivery so that it would not disturb your rest, but soon found myself, much like our protagonist, getting SWEPT UP in the action! For many of you this story will require no introduction, and I dare not spoil the twists and turns the story takes here. So without further introduction;

This story is called: An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge

by Ambrose Bierce

Tonight, we’ll be haunted by mysterious creatures which infect the mind!

We’ll meet Ken, a perfectly normal man whose world is turned upside down one day when he sees something he shouldn’t. From that point on, strange creatures begin to appear to him—more frequently and violently as time goes on. They’re always nearby, vigilant with their many merciless, golden eyes.

This story is called “Eyes to See”, and was written by A.G. Hilton…
