Summary

In this unnerving episode of Chilling Tales for Dark Nights, guest host Nicholas Goroff invites you into the kind of story that leaves a mark long after the final word is spoken—a tale born from childhood shadows, warped reflections, and the silent gaze of a stranger who stands exactly where he shouldn’t. Featuring “The Man at the Fence” by Brad Calderon—performed by Evil Idol 2025 standout Girl in the Dark—this episode explores the fragile boundary between what we remember and what we wish we didn’t. A man reflects on the summer that splintered his family, the encounter that changed everything, and the lingering fear that some figures don’t visit once… but return.
