Wakeful Children

A Collection of Horror and Supernatural Tales

Wakeful Children is a collection of imaginative, inventive short horror stories and tales of dark fiction. You, the listener, will unwittingly witness the twisted brutality of Joe Gallows; the weird dreamscape of The Sandman; the ice-cold grasp of The Face of the Gale; the elemental horror of an ancient, evil entity in Devil's Drop. In Absorption, you will visit residents of a darkly troubled street, watched over by a beautiful, malignant presence all the while.

These and other tales make Wakeful Children an unusual, compelling, refreshingly different read in this genre, as well as an impressive debut. One that will leave you thinking of it long after the final tick.

Eery

Wonderful writing, and engrossing narration of stories that provoke a sense of awe, and unease.

How the short stories end is their conclusion.. Don't look further. If they are unexplainable, then that's the mystery of life. There isn't a second chapter.
You wish there's more.. There isn't.

Perfectly alright

If you like short horror stories then this is worthwhile listening to on Plus.

The narrator really fits the stories but the stories themselves range from uninteresting to good.
