What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

This is one of the two best horror fiction pods in existence. The quality of these stories transcends any narrow “media modality” or genre boundary; these stories are in many cases first-rate short-form fiction. This is freaking literature, folks. Bravo!

Sflo53 · Feb 2026

I love this podcast, I’m a huge horror fan and these guys are obviously very talented writers that come out with bangers frequently. Even if the story isn’t something I think I’d be into normally, I get surprised with how easily I become invested with it anyway. Finding this podcast was a bit of an undertaking since it was never in my recommendations via the Apple podcast app, but on reddit. I was pleasantly surprised that they collaborated with the NoSleep podcast last year and I hope they do more collaborations in the future, like they talked about on the Decade of Dread Retrospective.

MyCatSirWolf · Feb 2026

Consistently high quality and impressively diverse settings and ideas.

kong rong · Jan 2026

Writing & producing 31 days of original fiction is a Herculean undertaking and TWS kills it every October. This year’s season has been terribly terrifying and hauntingly heartfelt. Some standouts thus far have been, House of Shells, The Click of the Lock and Cameron’s Castle. THANK YOU for writing and narrating some of the best stories in the horror and speculative fiction genre.
