Summary


On this week’s episode of Drew Blood’s Dark Tales, author P.D. Williams delivers two unnerving tales of strange roads, false intentions, and the danger of assuming you know exactly what kind of world you’re walking into. First, four blues musicians set out for Clarksdale and find themselves pulled into a night that feels increasingly wrong with every mile. Then, a smug online do-gooder goes looking for praise, gratitude, and easy content, only to discover that some acts of charity come with consequences he never saw coming. Darkly funny, eerie, and laced with menace, this is an episode about detours—moral, physical, and otherwise—and what may be waiting at the end of them.


“Long Way” by P.D. Williams — When a group of traveling blues musicians heads for Clarksdale in 1936, a breakdown on a lonely Mississippi road leaves them stranded in the dark and far from help. As the men press onward through an increasingly unnatural night, what begins as a simple detour turns into a harrowing encounter with forces far beyond their understanding. A haunting blend of historical atmosphere, folklore, and cosmic unease, this story charts a nightmare journey into the unknown.


“Kind” by P.D. Williams — Jared has built an online persona around public generosity, turning staged acts of compassion into content for clicks, praise, and profit. But when one of his self-serving charity stunts leads him into unfamiliar territory, he finds himself face-to-face with people who are not nearly as eager to play along as he expected. Darkly funny, sharp, and increasingly menacing, this story explores performative kindness, exploitation, and the danger of underestimating those you think you can use.
