"Drip" - Chilling Tales for Dark Nights

Off Florida’s Forgotten Coast, a stranded shrimp trawler promises Jonah Daughtrey the payday he has spent years chasing. Its hull appears intact, its cargo remains aboard, and no rival salvager has reached it. For once, the advantage is his. But the crew has left no tracks on the beach, and a scavenging bird soon draws his attention to something caught in the nets. Aboard the Job 2:7, Jonah finds signs of a disaster that never made it into the ship’s distress calls. While his first mate searches the deck, he ventures below, following the prospect of salvage into cramped compartments fouled by decay. Somewhere beyond a closed door, something scratches. As the evidence mounts, Jonah must decide how much danger he is willing to overlook for a profit—and whether he has already waited too long to leave.Listen on YouTube: ⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@chillingtalesfordarknights/⁠⁠FEATURED STORY:"The Plague Ship" by Nick CarlsonPerformed by Erik PeabodyProduced by S.K.

In 1994, the Lechtler family checked into room thirteen at the White Valley Hotel. By morning, both parents and their two children had vanished. The investigation yielded no answers, and the death of the hotel’s owner left White Valley with a mystery it would spend decades retelling. The hotel still welcomes guests, including visitors eager to spend a night in its most infamous room. For the young employee covering the overnight desk, that reputation is simply another way to keep a struggling business afloat. Then the newlyweds upstairs call to report an unbearable smell. With snow falling outside and the owners away, an apparently routine complaint draws the employee into the room at the center of White Valley’s unresolved past.Listen on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@chillingtalesfordarknights/FEATURED STORY:"Drip" by Matt RichardsenPerformed by Paul J.

An evening meant to bring a husband and wife closer ends with the loss of their infant daughter. In the months that follow, he struggles to reach Beth through her grief while privately wrestling with anger and guilt of his own. When she begins cooking again, opening the curtains, and speaking about their daughter without breaking down, he allows himself to hope. But the stove stays lit long after the meals are finished. Candles burn in empty rooms, and he hears his wife talking when no one else is there. As her comforting routines become increasingly unsettling, he must confront the possibility that he has misunderstood what is helping her survive.Listen on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@chillingtalesfordarknights/

SmallDoc promises to make routine doctor visits a thing of the past. One simple injection puts microscopic medical machines to work inside the body, treating illness before it can disrupt everyday life. Dean Swanson’s friends swear by it. His mother feels better than she has in years. His boss sees no reason he should refuse. Dean would rather keep his cold. Then an unsettling phone call and a trip to the pharmacy give him something more serious to worry about. Familiar voices sound wrong. Ordinary movements seem strangely rehearsed. And the treatment everyone recommends begins to look less reassuring with every encounter.Listen on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@chillingtalesfordarknights/

At a small-town Florida carnival, the Ferris wheel stands still, the concession stalls sit abandoned, and something is growing where it should not. Detectives Dachery and Margot arrive to investigate a scene neither can explain. Flowers bloom from human remains. Moss spreads across the attractions with impossible speed. And a strange proclamation invokes a name that means nothing to them: the Moss Prophet. With daylight fading and backup still on the way, the partners search for answers among the remnants of a celebration gone terribly wrong. But every discovery makes the grounds less familiar—and their route back to the car more unsettling.Listen on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@chillingtalesfordarknights/

FEATURING GUEST NARRATOR MARK "MARKIPLIER" FISCHBACH! For a coroner-in-training in Washington, D.C., a call to the Metro should be another opportunity to learn. An unidentified man has been found slumped against a train window, with no pulse, no breath, and no obvious cause of death. Then he blinks. Inside the examination room, the supervising doctor insists there must be a scientific explanation. But as the autopsy proceeds, the young intern finds it increasingly difficult to work beneath the dead man’s attentive gaze. After all, how do you examine a body when you’re not sure it's really dead?Listen on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@chillingtalesfordarknights/

Elliot takes the same walk through his neighborhood every night. He knows the streets, the turns, the ordinary sounds after dark. But tonight, a sudden fog conceals the way ahead—and a frightened stranger insists that someone is coming. The man speaks of a ruler who demands tribute from everyone he encounters. Elliot wants to dismiss him. Then the streetlights begin to fail, and he hears claws striking pavement somewhere beyond the mist. With his familiar neighborhood disappearing around him, Elliot must decide how much to trust a stranger whose terror seems increasingly justified. Whoever is approaching expects an offering. The problem is, Elliot has nothing prepared. And he may not be prepared for the price he'll truly have to pay.Listen on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@chillingtalesfordarknights/

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/

Anderson can fly, shrug off gunfire, and reduce almost anything to ash with a glance. Naturally, he decides the world needs him as its superhero. Calling himself Supreme, he sets out to fight crime, stop disasters, and earn the admiration he knows must follow. But real emergencies refuse to behave like comic books, and the people he intends to save keep finding reasons to fear his arrival. Every mistake gives him something else to explain, while every criticism makes it harder to admit that he might be the problem. As his exploits attract an eager audience and the attention of people who want his power for themselves, Supreme becomes determined to prove he deserves the title of hero. For everyone within reach, that determination is increasingly dangerous.Listen on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@chillingtalesfordarknights/

Seeking a quieter end to a night out, a skeptical narrator settles into a London bar, expecting little more than cheap whiskey and football on television. Then a young woman with bright red hair, ruined makeup, and someone else’s drink drying on her clothes takes the neighboring stool. She introduces herself as Lucifer, though she’s happy to answer to Lucy. Concerned that she needs help, the narrator offers to call someone. Lucy would prefer a cocktail and a chance to tell her story. Her proposition seems simple: hear her out before deciding what to do about her. But as she talks about Eden, her father, and the circumstances of her fall, the conversation becomes increasingly difficult to dismiss. Her humor conceals a deep resentment, and the certainty behind her impossible claims begins to make the crowded bar feel disturbingly isolated. Settle in for an intimate, unsettling encounter with a stranger who has plenty to say—and every intention of being heard.Listen on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@chillingtalesfordarknights/
