About this listen

Louisiana's bayous are not just water and trees; they are veins of memory, grief, and hunger. In Bayou After Dark, Luna guides you through a world where the cypress roots hold secrets and the mist carries whispers of those who never made it home. Each episode is a self-contained story drawn from the folklore, history, and hidden corners of the American South: a trapper who catches something in his net that should not exist, a bride whose wedding veil is made of Spanish moss, a family who hears their own voices calling from the swamp at night. These are not jump scares. They are slow, inevitable dread—the feeling of a hand on your shoulder when you are alone in a boat. Luna's voice settles into the dark like the lantern on the prow, steady and close. The stories share a setting and a sensibility: the thick, humid terror of a place that remembers everything. Listen if you want to feel the water rising around your ankles. But do not look too long into the dark reflection.

  • The Whistler of Parish Road — Fexingo Horror
    May 3 2026
    October 1998. A dirt road south of St. Martinville, Louisiana, where the sugarcane grows twelve feet tall and the night air smells like rot and molasses. Luna tells the story of a woman named Delia who lived in a shotgun house at the end of that road, and the thing that came whistling through her window every night for three weeks. Not a ghost — not exactly. Something that learned to mimic human breath, that counted her heartbeats in the dark, that pressed its mouth against the screen and whispered her name in a voice that was almost hers. A story about what happens when loneliness leaves the door unlocked, and what comes in before you can close it. Quiet, close, and wrong in a way that settles into the bones like humidity.

  • The Drowning of Cypress Creek — Fexingo Horror
    May 2 2026
    Luna rows into a stagnant arm of the bayou near St. Francisville, Louisiana, on a September night in 2019, following a story about a man named Elias Thorne who went missing from his houseboat three months prior. She finds his boat still moored to a cypress knee, his belongings undisturbed, and a journal entry that reads like a confession. As darkness falls and the lantern sputters, Luna realizes she is not alone on the water. Something beneath the surface has been waiting for an audience. A slow, intimate meditation on grief, memory, and the weight of what we carry into the quiet places.
