Tales to Terrify

by Drew Sebesteny

The unseen creature whose ravenous fangs dog your every step as your footfalls echo down the midnight alleyway.  — A long, icy shadow looming over you, making the hairs on your neck rise and your breath turn to ragged puffs of mist. — Unearthly howls that pierce the night, pulling you from the comfort of sleep with feverish, heart-pounding dread.  — Welcome to Tales to Terrify, a weekly horror fiction podcast that gets under your skin, lays eggs and hatches writhing baby horrors nursed on your darkest fears. We're unique in our simplicity, bringing pure tales of terror to your ears audiobook-style – unadulterated and unadorned. Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/talestoterrify. Hosted on Acast.

What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Been a listener for years and can say that this is one of the most consistently great podcasts out there. I consume a lot of short stories and audiobooks and always especially look forward to these. Thank you for sharing such awesome fiction with us!

Xen0cide · Aug 2024

Some of the stories are just ok, and the information sections are a bit dull for me (I skip them), but occasionally there are some downright brilliant ones. The narration and stories of Martin Mundt in particular are some of the most fascinating, delightfully weird, inventive, and unsettling ones. I always look forward to those. Neat podcast with some hidden gems, and it’s obvious there’s a great deal of affection and care for the genre.
