SPOOKTOBER DAY SEVENTEEN

welcome to my spooktober audio advent calendar, where, each day during the month of spooktober, i will be celebrating by listening to a free audio short from nightfire’s Come Join Us by the Fire series, and you can join ME by following the links. let’s all be scared together!


4 minutes

i love you, paul tremblay, but this one was TOO short. i listened to it a couple of times to make sure i didn’t miss anything, like—for example—the consequences of The Thing That Happened at the Pond, but that part of the story seems to have been sucked down to the pond’s murky bottom lined with bloated bodies and bleached white skin and crumbling flesh intertwined in a loveless embrace and matted hair turned to weed and open mouths and swollen tongues and empty eyeholes.

listen to it here:

this feels gauche, but when i announced i was starting a blog, everyone assured me this is a thing that is done. i’m not on facebook, i’ve never had a cellphone or listened to a podcast; so many common experiences of modern life are foreign to me, but i’m certainly struggling financially, so if this is how the world works now, i’d be foolish to pass it up. any support will be received with equal parts gratitude and bewilderment.
