Summary

In this chilling new episode of Chilling Tales for Dark Nights, guest host Nicholas Goroff invites you down a dirt road lined with tidy apple trees and friendly small-town smiles—places where nothing bad is supposed to happen. But when a newcomer’s dream orchard bears its first harvest, the townsfolk discover that the sweetest fruit sometimes hides the darkest secrets. Featuring a haunting tale by Micah Edwards and brought to life by Evil Idol standout Sophie Hartle, “Rotten to the Core” peels back the skin of rural life to reveal what thrives in the silence beneath. Whispers spread. Curiosity grows. And beneath the soil, the truth is ready to be picked.
