Five After Midnight

By: John Anthony Davis

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Five lives. Five terrors. One sleepless night.

An antique restorer buys an abandoned asylum for a song, only to learn the bricks in the walls hold more than mortar—they hold trapped, screaming minds.

An overnight radio DJ stumbles upon a chilling, intelligent pattern in the static between stations, a pattern that watches the town lights below… and seeks to correct their imperfections.

A librarian discovers a collection of blank books that fill themselves with the final, fractured thoughts of the local desperate and damned. Now, a new volume has appeared, bearing her own name.

A failed musician downloads an app that promises to perfect his art. It speaks to him in his own voice—polished, confident, and utterly ruthless—pruning everything that isn't the song.

A man lost in his own life finds a forgotten house on a mountain. In its master bedroom stands a wall of polished obsidian, reflecting back a hollow, peaceful version of himself that offers to take all his pain… forever.

In this chilling collection, the monsters aren't under the bed—they're in the walls, in the static, on the page, in the phone, and in the mirror. "Five After Midnight" delivers five unforgettable journeys into domestic horror, where the most terrifying hauntings are the ones we invite in ourselves.

Perfect for fans of Stephen King, Paul Tremblay, and Shirley Jackson.
