Thank you. From the blackest corners of your mind, they call, pulling you deep into shadow, twisting your senses, keeping you from sleep.

It's time to face your darkest fears.

This is Tales to Terrify. Good evening, children of the night, and welcome.

I've got just a couple of quick reminders for you before we dive into our fiction this week.

First, of course, is our design contest. We've picked a winner, and we're champing at the bit to share this dastardly creation with you, but we've still got a couple of eyes to dot and teased to cross

before we can cast this macabre masterpiece out into the world.

Stay tuned to our social media and next week's episode

to find out who's taking home the prize.

And following that, you'll also have your chance to get your claws on some great merch featuring

the winning design. So keep your eyes peeled. As we head into the summer months, there's going to be

lots to wrangle, not the least of which is our 500th episode bash, which will happen later in August.

Our travel schedule, though, is looking like it might get a little complicated.

So a little advance warning that we may be cooling our heels more than usual over the next several weeks.

That said, we've got some terrifically terrifying tales stalking your way.

Our latest round of submissions are starting to come to life.

And that feels like the perfect segue into reminding you that now is an excellent time to submit your own

horrifying creations. There is nothing, after all, quite like the chill of a truly spine-tingling

horror story to cool you off. Tales to Terrify.com slash submissions, of course, is where you can deposit yours into our vault of horrors for injection into the brains of new victims.
