The Source Recordings, Volume 1

For the creepypasta lover in all of us, here’s a different, more raw way to experience a few older stories from the series—directly from the mouths of the witnesses, who have no use for some author's careful prose or dramatic effects. The stories and the tellers: 1. 'bargain': Meyer Statham (10 mins.) 2. 'A Convergence in Wintertime': Tiff Gideon (21 mins.) 3. 'legend': CSAR (12 mins.)

An Oral History of Hell

Note to listeners: The content of this story is particularly grim, and may be very disturbing to some. 'An Oral History of Hell,' a story written before this podcast began, is a bleak, brutish tale of suspense related by a narrator condemned to Hell's wintry plain. The Grip, the Speaking Stones, the Far Mountains, the Perimeter, the Lie: In describing Hell's harsh geography and customs, Nicholas Strait also describes the events and people that brought him to damnation. His search for a way out must navigate madness, addiction, and the immutable hand of death. MUSIC: "The Unknown" by Kemi, "Deep Blue" by YahavK, "Eternal Recluse" by Kyle Preston, "Too Much" by Michael Vignola, "Uncharted Lands" by Romeo, "One Word (Reworked)" by Christopher Galavan.

Walk through most neighborhoods, and you get at least a general sense of people’s back yards. But where the truly wealthy live on enormous gated parcels of land, you quickly notice it’s almost impossible to either see or know what’s going on back there. With all that space and total anonymity, it really could be… anything. Music: Michele Nobler, 'Choral Prelude in F Minor' by Johann Sebastian Bach, all rights reserved.
