Science Fiction · Cole Weavers

For forty years, people have been mailing each other scary stories. There are no rules to the Tiny Terrors Scary Story Exchange. There is only etiquette. If you like a story, you copy it and pass it on. Always leave the original credit. And for every story you receive, you send out at least two — because a story only survives if someone bothers to keep it moving. Some of these stories have been in circulation for decades. Some died on a kitchen floor. Cole, Mark, and D have been members since they were teenagers, when they started stealing entries from the collection of Cole's cousin, Tyler. Tyler died young — and twenty years later, his entire collection has landed in Cole's hands. Thousands of stories. Handwritten. Typewritten and photocopied into ghosts of themselves. Recorded on cassettes that hiss like they remember something. And Tyler kept dozens of copies of some stories — almost as if he was trying to take them out of circulation. Nobody knows why. Yet. So now, from a garden shed lined with blankets and egg cartons, the three of them are reading the collection aloud — one complete scary story an episode. Cole leads with his gut. D trusts the manual. Mark feels all of it first. Between the stories, in the Shed, their own story is unfolding too — so start at Episode 0, and listen in order. Tiny Terrors is a nostalgic horror anthology from Cole Weavers, creator of The Town Whispers, produced by Pulp Audio. Get one. Give two. Start at Episode 0. — This show is brought to you by The Exchange — scary stories by mail. The stories on this show travel the way stories used to: hand to hand, in envelopes. The Exchange is that, for real. Members get real letters in their mailbox — complete scary stories, always human written, hand picked and curated, printed, folded, and sent to be read after dark and passed on to someone they trust with it. No feed. No screen. No algorithm deciding what reaches you.

I truly do not care how many podcasts use them as their delivery mechanism - I’m a sucker for cassette tapes and this show does them right. The ‘stop’ button click at the end of a really good story, (e.g. most recent, Haunted House) is like a little mic drop and I dig it.
I am 100% on Tiny Terrors. Not since the White Vault have I felt so desperate to know what happens next. Cole, Mark, and D have fallen into something terrifying. I’m not sure how they’re going to get themselves out of this. Tiny Terrors takes the classic short-horror anthology genre and makes it into an audio thriller like Serial. It is the perfect blend of fun horror and terrifying mistakes. I constantly have the two horror sensations of “No! Don’t go in there!” and “Yes! We must find out!” Tiny Terrors is an absolute blast.
The storytelling is above and beyond. The pacing is just fantastic. The meta dialogue absolutely had me rolling on the floor. The natural, emotion filled voice acting had me double/triple checking this wasn’t biographical. 😂
This is the best horror story podcast I’ve ever listened to! I’m so glad I found a podcast like this. These horror/creepy fans expertly and affectionately read a SHORT creepy story each episode. It makes you feel like a kid sharing creepy legends you’ve heard at night with your friends around Halloween. And there’s plenty of unexpected surprises!
The good - Tiny Terrors started as a very strong show with a great concept! The stories are fun/frightening and the over arching story is intriguing. The bad - off the bat you are told the updates are intermittent and are not on a regular schedule. When I started I thought this would be maybe one every other week or something like that. Unfortunately the show will go weeks without an update. Then they will finally post a new episode and it’s locked behind a hefty paywall for max 6 additional stories. I will try to revisit at a later date. Here’s to hoping when I come back in a couple months there is at least one new episode!
I liked the story that was being told. But the extremely intermittent updates coupled with excitement to see a new episode but it’s a premium one behind a paywall have dashed my expectations that this series will reach a satisfying conclusion, if it even reaches a conclusion at all.
