S15E08 - "Ancient Calls" – Scary Stories Told in the Dark

Featured Author: Nicky Exposito and Chisto Healy. A nice lullaby may help you sleep, but these two tales of murderous musical mayhem is more likely to keep you up at night. Our first story deals with a DJ whose wild nightclub act has a more sinister purpose, while in the second, a strange affliction nearly drives a young man into madness, until one desperate act opens the door to a melody he just can't get enough of.

Featured Authors: Finn McCool and Dale Thompson. Pets are such comforting things. They make us feel happy when we're down, keep us company when we're lonely...but occasionally for some, a nice bite of Fancy Feast isn't enough to calm their more...dangerous urges. In our first story, a mercenary relates the tale of his time with a sadistic dictator...and the beloved alligator that takes care of his rivals. In the second, a high-class party of elites discover, far too late, that something very hungry is prowling around, and it wants to invite the guests to dinner.

Featured Authors: Richard Morgan. Tonight, we honor an author whose passing left a mark on the Chilling Tales community, with two stories written by him, one featured here that was recently rediscovered but never published. In that first tale, a new employee finds it hard to make friends, but the one he does find has a tale of his own to tell. In the second, a detective with a dying wife and a murder victim who doesn't seem as dead as she should be find a connection that could solve a lingering problem.
