Apple Podcasts5patrickdallas416United States3 months ago - My favorite story teller! AMAZING!
awesome, intelligent, very creative story teller! he narrates his own writing and it couldn't be better. the ambient music and sounds set an unforgettable mood that leaves me hungry for more. I check for updates almost daily. my only complaint is I NEED MORE!! CAN'T GET ENOUGH! Some of the geographic areas in which the stories are set are actually my own hometown of Clay City, Ky. That makes it so fun!!

Such a unique blend of horror and dark fantasy with a little sci-fi sprinkled on top. While several writers blend these genres quite well, Van Buskirk weaves stories that feel couture. His unapologetic and authentic one-of-a-kind-ness is what sets his art apart from the pack. Keep on!
