![]() If this is your cup of cold bitter tea, then absolutely check out ‘We Don’t Talk About Sarah’ by William Delphin (E7), ‘My Best Friend’s Grandmother’ by Allison Stuart (E9) and ‘Georgie’s’ by Christopher MacTaggart (E14). There’s a certain visceral-but-plain quality to a lot of the early NoSleep stories that makes them feel like they really could have been true. What I mean are the stories you have to practically drag out of someone, and they will only ever tell you one time, looking like they’re going to puke because they’re so freaked out. I don’t give a fuck about your cousin’s girlfriend that swears she got creepy calls when she used to babysit, or you grandmother’s best friend who definitely found a dismembered hook-hand after driving home from Makeout Point. I know that a lot of that’s kind of done to death, and the tropes aren’t the ones that I’m talking about. The first thing season one really nails is urban legends. My personal favorite stories come from later seasons, but Season 1 in particular hits two of my favorite themes in horror straight out of the park. The early seasons of NoSleep have a real sense of nostalgia for a lot of fans, and I’m no exception. (Or am I too late to grandfather in to that demographic?) TLDR it’s a good show, Brant, and I’ll be talking about it periodically until blogging is only done by hipsters and grannies. At about 30 episodes per season (including special episodes for holidays and season pass exclusive content), and generally two hours per episode, the show has significantly over 500 hours of content for me to gibber on about. As of the day I’m tapping this out, NoSleep has just launched their 14th season. NoSleep has gone on to inspire and support producers and contributors for many other horror fiction pods, including Pseudopod, Creepy, Darkest Night, and more. It premiered on Jwith the intention of producing stories from r /nosleep in a high quality, audiobook format. ![]() The show was started by producer and host David Cummings. On the off chance you’ve been living under a rock that doesn’t get wifi, I’ll start with a very short history of NoSleep. For my (official) inaugural blog, I want to begin what will end up being an extensive project- a start on reviewing the NoSleep podcast, season by season. ![]() As the clock runs out, Dru is locked in a high-speed chase with the enchantress, fighting a fierce, magical duel she can never win alone.I know it took me a while to get here, Radioheads, but I’m so happy you’ve joined me. Can she trust them to help her stop doomsday? Worse, tracking down the enchantress runs Dru smack up against a pack of killer shape-shifters, the grim mystery of a radioactive ghost town, and a dangerous speed demon even more powerful than Hellbringer. But she suspects her half-demon boyfriend, Greyson, and his demon-possessed muscle car, Hellbringer, are hiding a dark secret. Dru must hit the road to get the amulet back. ![]() With this supernatural amulet in hand, the enchantress intends to break the sixth seal of the apocalypse scroll-making the seas boil, the stars fall from the sky, and the earth itself split apart. When a wicked enchantress steals a cursed doomsday amulet, crystal sorceress Dru Jasper has only twenty-four hours to get it back before the world will come to a fiery end. An inexperienced sorceress must retrieve a priceless artifact from the enchantress who stole it, break the curse on her half-demon boyfriend, and stop her friends from turning on each other before the enchantress calls down doomsday. ![]()
