Darkness takes root. Hunger grows. The old things wake.

My sister, missing for eight years, finally came home. My mother’s last text message says: IT’S NOT HER.

Something is mimicking our voices from the deep woods, and the sound is getting closer.

I’m a long-haul trucker. The thing I saw in the fields has followed. Now it’s tapping on the window.

My best friend vanished in an old bunker when we were kids. Today, I’m going back in.

These tales and others prove that when the light fails, it’s not just the dark that comes out. It's everything that was waiting within it.

I know "soothing horror" might sound strange, but that's exactly what this was to me. None of the stories in this anthology were particularly gruesome or extreme. Instead, they were creepy, strangely filled with melancholy. Don't get me wrong - that doesn't mean they were bad in any way, shape, or form. They were just more thought provoking compared to other horror novels. Geoff Sturtevant's was an excellent narrator for this anthology. Calm, soothing, yet emotional. It was a wonderful combination. The last 2 stories were probably my favorite out of the collection.

Soothing horror...

These horror stories were interesting. I enjoyed them and thought the narration was pretty well done. I did speed up the narration quite a bit, but that's something I always have to do and definitely not a reflection on the narrator. I only bring it up because at the original speed, this collection of stories is barely over 4 hours so sped up it's quite the quick listen. If you have just a few hours to kill and want to listen to some unique stories, I'd suggest giving this one a try.

I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
