Drew Blood's Dark Tales — A Horror Fiction Anthology and Scary Stories Podcast

Show Notes

Fresh out of prison after more than two decades, Dennis Prater is handed something he never expected—a second chance. A quiet home tucked deep in the woods. A clean slate. A future he thought was long gone. But freedom doesn’t feel the way he imagined it would. The house is too perfect. The silence, too complete. And the people he meets along the way seem just a little too eager… too interested… too familiar. As the days pass, small details begin to unravel the story he’s been told. Pieces don’t fit. Questions go unanswered. And the deeper Dennis looks, the more he begins to wonder if his release was ever meant to set him free at all.

In the fall of 1956, a stranger arrives in Belle Carne with a fiddle and an invitation the whole town seems eager to accept. His tent has appeared beside the bandstand, admission is free, and he promises enough music to keep everyone dancing until morning. For George and his friends, it sounds like a welcome escape from another uneventful evening. Even the local preacher has joined the crowd. But beneath the stranger’s cheerful patter, something feels wrong—and inside his candlelit tent, the excitement begins to take on an unnerving urgency. Everyone is welcome at the performance. Before you step inside, however, you might want to ask why he’s so eager to fill the floor. Listen on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@chillingtalesfordarknights/

On the Appalachian Trail, an unexpected gift can make all the difference. A bottle of water. Something to eat. A little help when the miles become too much. Hikers call it "trail magic." Matthew Calder could certainly use some. Alone after his girlfriend’s early departure, he’s determined to finish the hike they started together. Then his backpack vanishes, taking his food, shelter, and means of calling for help. By nightfall, the supplies someone has left behind feel like a miracle. But another day passes without a single person on the trail. Then another. And whoever keeps leaving those gifts seems to know exactly what Matt needs.

Scott Madsen has grown accustomed to sleeping alone. After years of sharing a bed and a troubled marriage, he can finally stretch out, settle in, and rest undisturbed. Then a cold touch follows him out of a dream. He wakes to find a hand wrapped around the foot he left outside the covers. Someone is beside his bed—or beneath it. Whoever it is won’t answer him. And when the grip tightens, Scott realizes that reaching the bedroom door may be far more dangerous than staying where he is. Listen on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@chillingtalesfordarknights/

Beneath the oaks of Shady Grove Cemetery, Allan reads to his sisters and tells his mother about his life. Their graves are the closest thing to home he has left—and now the man who murdered them is coming to stay. His father’s burial arrangements are paid for. The objections have been dismissed. By tomorrow, a killer will be lowered into the earth beside his victims, unless Allan’s years of whispered rituals and hidden offerings can accomplish what his protests could not.

A disturbing broadcast interrupts an ordinary evening in rural Vermont. At an abandoned cemetery, police have surrounded a mausoleum, a doomsday cult refuses to surrender, and the cameras are still rolling. Then a black fog pours across the grounds—and the transmission ends. Norman believes there must be an explanation. But as the darkness spreads through the countryside, cutting off roads and silencing communications, the emergency on television becomes a threat to the home he shares with his wife, Wendy. Authorities have issued a simple instruction: stay indoors. With the windows disappearing behind an impenetrable blackness, Norman gathers what he needs to keep them safe. Outside, shapes are moving through the fog. Inside, every unanswered question makes the house feel smaller. Listen on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@chillingtalesfordarknights/
