TWL 906: An Extra Wicked Anthology

It's time for another quarterly Extra Wicked Anthology Episode! Today we bring you three great tales from the darker side of things. Supporters of the show at the $5 a month and above level hear these stories first at the rate of one a month. Later (once a quarter), the stories are compiled and shared with the entire audience to help promote the work of the authors, composers and voice actors.

1. "A Little Light Gets In", by Daniel Foytik

This first tale is a story by The Wicked Library's own Daniel Foytik. It originally appeared in the Shadows at The Door written anthology, and is also available on Audible as part of the audio edition of the anthology with 12 other full length stories narrated by Cynthia Lowman and Daniel Foytik.

Karen, has spent her life wondering what happened the night her mother was murdered. Years later, she returns to the small mountain town in Pennsylvania where she grew up armed with special equipment that will allow her to make contact with her mother's spirit. But, in this town, with dark secrets going back to it's earliest days, another entity awaits her arrival and the opportunity to cross into our world.

Storyteller: Cynthia Lowman | Score: Shawn Parke and Kim Henninger of Henninger Parke Music

2. "13", by K. B. Goddard

Tate is a rational Victorian man who does not believe in the supernatural, curses, or other such nonsense - almost arrogantly so. However, the supernatural does believe in him.

Storyteller: Graham Rowat | Score: Nico Vettese

3. "At the Top of Her Lungs", by Cory Mason

A woman struggles to return to her daily routine after complications from surgery leave her vocal cords permanently damaged. Will help ever come, if no one can hear you scream?

Storytellers: Heather Thomas, Narrator | Nelson W. Pyles, Attacker | Score: Nico Vettese

Voice of the Librarian: Nelson W. Pyles | Artwork: Alex J. Murd | Host / Producer / Showrunner: Daniel Foytik | Executive Producers: Cynthia Lowman, Nelson W. Pyles
