I was introduced to chilling tales for dark nights in middle school - now over ten years later I am still listening and loving the channel. Every time I have a down moment I’m constantly wanting more and more stories. I love this program and I hope you love it as much as I do!
I listen to a lot of horror stories and this would be the best show. The short stories have actual plots and a storyline. And the voice actors that aren’t AI.
I will start by saying I listen religiously, so that alone should probably get it a great grade. Some stories feel like they were written by ChatGPT and come off pretty lame and empty, but many are really good. The voice actors tend to be excellent. Where this show regularly misses the mark is in production. It feels like an after thought, like someone did it, but then never bothered to see how it sounds before releasing it. There are episodes where a specific voice is all but lost to the sounds. They are often consistent throughout as if someone just overlayed a piece of music or some form of white noise. Sometimes it world well enough to forget about it for a story or two. Then you get a great story that’s well acted and you can’t hear a child’s voice over the gamma waves they dropped on it. That’s really frustrating because I want to listen and instead I’m frustrated and annoyed as I’m missing entire chunks of the story. I’ve had to skip some episodes after a few minutes, which is really annoying when they spent ten minutes at the beginning trying to sell you something and then follow it up with poor production. It’s free though, so there’s only so much you can expect. If it tried to charge I would be far more critical of the way it refuses to let me enjoy some episodes.
Great for horror fans, these stories will leave you chilled to the bone. Wondering if what you’ve listened to is fiction… or reality…
The quality of the stories being published as well as their presentation has gone downhill tenfold since the decision was made to quit using Otis Jiry. His voice was the reason I started listening to podcasts and now I have found many others that are very good, but nobody matches his voice or delivery. However, this one has lost all appeal and friends and family that listen to the same genre agree.
Several minutes of each episode are devoted to ads. The same ads are repeated during a single episode as well, which is very annoying. Whatever tension might have been generated by a story is undermined by the interruptions.
