Riveting stories, Amazing Readers

I’m a huge fan of horror fiction, and out of the many podcasts in that genre I follow, this one is top notch.

The substitute

I found this podcast in season 6. I have enjoyed all of the stories thus far. However, the last episode, The Substitute, has been my favorite! I could imagine this being on television or an actual movie. It left me wanting to know more about that town and how the monster came into existence. I had other questions as well, but I don’t want to spoil the story. Great story and great podcast!

That intro music tho

I love the into music clip. It’s magic! :) Great show! Tanya Thompson was doing this short creepy factoid clip at the end of one episode that made me LOL for real though. It was just delivered so perfectly. Genius Note to sather86 who left a review saying: “Racist. If there was a show called “white people horror everyone would call it racist. How is this different?” Ok so -buddy- you gotta think about it kind of like this: picture two cups. One cup has been half full for a while and water is still being added to it. The other glass has been bone dry for quite some time -and as such- since the goal in this scenario is equality- if there were to be a stronger stream of water being added to the empty glass- this is a good thing. Lots of catching up to do. Make sense? Hope this helps. It’s a lame thought experiment but I’m thinking maybe, just maybe, it might make some sense or at least help you start seeing things a little bit different from time to time. I don’t know. It’s probably just lame.
