À propos de cet audio

Like horror stories? Like audio books? Like to be read to by a voice as soft as black velvet and as sinister as a phantom? The Dark Volumes podcast brings you monthly stories from the greats such as H.P. Lovecraft, Edgar Allan Poe, Mary Shelley, Robert Chambers, and others. There's some commentary, sure, but it's all about the stories, here. Turn off the lights, pour some wine, and (maybe) get under the covers. The Dark Volumes are here to remind you why you should be afraid of the dark.Russell Archey 2021 Art Théâtre

  • "The Yellow Wallpaper" by Charlotte Perkins Gilman
    Jun 24 2025

    Published in 1892, this story is considered one of the great early works of writing, especially in regards to horror, that discusses the mental strains women faced in the late 19th century. It will also speak to anyone who suffers from feeling alone. The walls closing in. Isolation that strains your sanity. And, of course, a common horror trope...the color yellow.

  • "The Wendigo" by Algernon Blackwood - Part 4 of 4
    Apr 17 2025

    A popular beastie in today's culture; it holds much more significance with the Algonquian peoples with which it originated. It's also known as the "witiko" and "weeghteko" among others.

    Originally it was a malevolent spirit or even just a particularly wicked individual, with variations in representation among whichever local folklore it was associated with. Modern variations introduced a cannibalism aspect as well as depictions including a deer-skull for a head complete with antlers.

    There have always been the same common denominator, however: wendigos are the embodiment of greed and excess.

    This episode involves the novella by the legendary Algernon Blackwood, published in 1910 in the collection The Lost Valley and Other Stories.

    A more classical take, and nonetheless incredibly haunting.
