About this listen
“An incredible collection of stories.”—C.D. Kester, author of Trailer Park
From Reddit NoSleep legend Tor-Anders Ulven comes a collection that plunges readers into the terrifying depths of the unknown.
An unlucky man falls upward into the sky. A disturbing dinner ritual begins with the family removing their left eyes and only grows worse from there… A woman encounters a mysterious entity that allows her to travel through time with gruesome consequences. A rapidly aging child with the ability to control minds forces her father into a nightmare of servitude. A man forms a deadly alliance with the intelligent parasite attached to his neck.
These masterful tales peel back the veil of the familiar, revealing a world where obscurity isn’t just darkness—it’s a living, breathing nightmare.

Martin Lorensen is a twenty-three-year-old counselor for disturbed teenagers. He’s bright, compassionate, attractive, and outgoing. He’s also—and this is the most interesting thing—not dead. Martin has improbably survived not one but two deadly disasters that claimed dozens of lives. The kid is riding one hell of a lucky streak. Two federal agents think there is something darker at play. Now that they’ve arranged to interview Martin, they want answers. Martin is ready to share everything he knows. One thing is for certain: when it comes to escaping death, luck doesn’t figure into it at all.

These are really fun and creepy short horror and supernatural stories!
I loved that the devil paid a visit in several of these wild stories.
This is my first read from this author and I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed each story. They are all extremely entertaining and well written. Some are creepy, some freaky and all are exciting!
I was lucky to get an audio version of this book and the narrator was great!
*It’s out now, and is a must for spooky short stories*
