Welcome back to the Summer of Nightfail Presents, a celebration and sampling of some of the shows

across our network. I'm sick, so apologies for my garbage voice right now. This week we will be

listening to special episodes of Alice Isn't Dead, my horror thriller fiction show, and sleep with me,

the podcast that puts you to sleep. We're in the middle of the third and final season of Alice

Isn't Dead, and if you haven't listened to it yet, it would only take a few hours to get

totally caught up in time for the finale. Alice Isn't Dead is about a truck driver,

played by Jessica Nicole, whose searches across America for the wife she had long assumed was dead.

In the course of her search, she encounters not quite human serial murderers,

towns literally lost in time, and a conspiracy that goes way beyond one missing woman.

It features hours of original music and sound design by Nightfail's disparition.

What started as a strange little detour from Nightfail writing has turned into its own beautiful

thing, and I'm so proud of the work that Jessica, disparition and I have done on this show.

To introduce you to the show, we're going to play you the recording from our one-off live show,

this past spring, in Los Angeles. This live show tells a completely standalone story,

and you don't need to know anything about the podcast to understand what's going on here.

Let's listen in.

Oh.

I'm sorry. I um, I didn't expect.

I didn't know that anybody would be listening.

Okay. Um, when you tell a story, you should expect an audience, but sometimes I don't think about that.

I just tell the story the same way I breathe, just move life in and out of my body.

I suppose you can listen if you want.
