Summary

In the latest chilling installment of Chilling Tales for Dark Nights, host Steve Taylor invites you to peer behind the curtains of ordinary life—where shadows linger and whispers gather. This episode features a tale penned and performed by Nick Goroff, the very first Evil Idol champion. With his trademark blend of atmosphere and dread, Goroff unveils a story where the comforts of home and community mask something far more unsettling. What begins in warmth soon leads into the unknown, where every friendly smile may conceal a hidden truth, and every quiet street harbors a secret best left undisturbed.
