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.

1:23.6

Next week, Tales to Terrify hits a pretty significant milestone, our 600th episode, which

1:30.7

best hardcore horror, among many others. When not writing, Frank spends his time creating elaborate
