The Practical Joke

By: Wil Adams

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

What began as a college prank — a little scare, a quick laugh — ends in a nightmare that won’t let go.
Three travelers find themselves trapped in a town that isn’t on any map, where every road leads back to the same dead end… and every shadow hides the sound of something breathing.
As dusk falls, the air grows thick, and the streets come alive with the low chuffing of a thing that hunts by sound — a thing that knows when you laugh, when you whisper, when your heart dares to beat.
For Kenneth, Stephen, and Delores, survival means silence. But when friendship and fear collide in the half-light of dawn, even silence may not be enough.
Because in this town, night never truly ends — it just waits.
