Oh jeeeezzzzz ...no sleeping tonight, buddy. Thanks a lot. Absolutely superb storytelling. I particularly admire how you use the sound landscapes and touches of effects to enhance the story - this requires a very deft touch, just a little too much and the power of the narration would have been disturbed. Case in point - that distant child's cry at the end made my skin crawl. It was just distant enough to be deeply unsettling, but not so close that it pulled my attention away, just right to spike up the fear. All the way through you kept the balance perfect.... was it really almost twenty minutes? Maybe time went faster because I'd stopped breathing.....

Mr. M Your comments made me smile.:) I'm very pleased that the story had the intended effect on you. I was very mindful in creating this that I wanted the effects to be a subtle enhancement to the words and not to overshadow them. I glad to hear that you noticed what I was going for. Thanks very much for the listen and the nice comment. Check out my latest song called Shaolin Munk Funk (w/ musichead & awigze)

Fruit of Thy Womb really Andy, this is so well done! i think i told you earlier that i'm really impressed by your speaking voice - you have the perfect cadence and the quality of your voice is just perfect! have you ever worked in broadcasting??) this story is the essence of CREEPOLA, and your added effects really hit the spot. Great work! Check out my latest song called Symphonic Smackdown

Scary! Thanks for the scare! Nothing scarier than a closed door silent or with noises behind it...or one cracked open tempting a peek in...AHHHHHH! Oh MOM...wouldn't a divorce have been less painful? ...I'm sorry I can't listen to it from 13:42 on...I'm afraid it will leave indelible images I wish not to have imbeded in my mind!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks, Connie.:D Whoa, was it really that scary? Well, I'm glad to hear it, I guess.:) I wish you could have finished it, though. I thought some of the more interesting ideas were at the end. Thanks for the listen though--I'm glad it had an impact on you in some way.:) Check out my latest song called Shaolin Munk Funk (w/ musichead & awigze)

Yikes Brilliantly written. The sounds are such an effective highlight on the already visually evocative creepy story line. The tension is so well drawn out, and the horror of a trusted figure being so evil makes the whole story incredibly effective. The next Mr. Poe??

Creeped out! Wow. What a voice...and what a story. Nice. There's something about just audio on a horror story, radio style that creeps up behind us and makes us S-C-R-E-A-M. (You may like my "Locus Storm," (http://www.macjams.com/song/54165) It's got a bit of a creep-out effect going on, but without any words— only the scream.
