This podcast is the best, I use it to help me sleep and reminds me to aware of my surroundings
I like all the stories but he just need to post more like every 5 days instead of 7
Such an incredible one of a kind podcast! I listen to lots of podcasts and the quality and detail delivered in these stories is unrivaled. I particularly like the longer stories and Darkness Prevails does an amazing job telling the stories and providing just a touch of background effects to add to the creep factor! π€π€π€
I really enjoy this podcast, but then the narrator reads dialogues and starts using a weeping voice, I really want to turn this off. No one talks like this..
