Whispers Beneath Hollowstream

A Silent Village. A Relentless Curse. A Traveler Who Refuses to Disappear.

By: Daniel R. Mercer

Narrated by: B Fike

When weary traveler Elias Rowan stumbles into the remote village of Hollowstream, he expects nothing more than a place to rest. Instead, he finds a community frozen in unnatural silence—its people terrified to speak, its roads looping endlessly back to its cursed heart.

At night, whispering voices rise from the locked well in the village square. The villagers avoid eye contact. And the masked Watchers enforce rules no outsider should ever break. As Elias attempts to escape the valley, he uncovers the truth behind Hollowstream’s ancient curse—and the monstrous entity known only as The Listener, which feeds on the voices and names of its victims.

To survive, Elias must navigate the village’s hidden laws, unravel forbidden history, and confront the horror that waits beneath the stillness. But the Listener has already noticed him… and once it hears your voice, it never forgets.

A gripping supernatural thriller filled with dread, mystery, and escalating tension—perfect for fans of atmospheric horror, folklore-based suspense, and dark village secrets.
