    396: Claws for Concern - Chilling Tales for Dark Nights
    Aug 21 2025
    This week, Chilling Tales for Dark Nights invites you to a seaside town where neon lights flicker, carnival games ring out, and the scent of salt and fryer grease hangs in the air. But behind the laughter and music, the tide is carrying in something far less welcoming. Join host Steve Taylor and a full cast of voices—Geoff Sturtevant, Otis Jiry, Christopher Drape, Nick Goroff, Kevin Barbare, Olivia Steele, Katie Otten, and more—for a tale that begins with nostalgia and ends with nightmare. When the claws start clicking, the question isn’t what’s for dinner… but who.

    392: How Not to Die: A Vinny Pastorelli Survival Guide - Chilling Tales for Dark Nights
    Aug 7 2025
    Vinny Pastorelli talks loud, drives fast, and drinks his coffee strong—but none of that prepared him for the supernatural catastrophes that keep finding him. Whether he’s dodging death in a school gym, a suburban neighborhood, or the middle of nowhere, Vinny’s got one rule: survive first, ask questions later. In this four-part horror-comedy gauntlet from writer Craig Groshek and voice actor Kevin Barbare, chaos comes calling in the most unexpected places. Packed with monsters, mayhem, and enough garlic to clear a city block, this episode delivers high-octane hilarity with a Bronx-sized helping of bad decisions. Strap in, wise up, and remember: when the unholy shows up, Vinny’s already got a game plan. Probably.

    389: Render Unto Madness - Chilling Tales for Dark Nights
    Jul 29 2025
    What happens when the hunger for greatness meets a machine that dreams darker than any man ever could? In this haunting episode, we invite you to step into the glowing light of a screen that never sleeps—a realm where creativity blurs with madness, and code becomes a conduit for something far older than intelligence. When one man's pursuit of artistic legacy crosses a forbidden threshold, he finds himself entangled in a web of horrors he helped bring into being... but can no longer control. With a story penned and performed by one of CTFDN's veteran voices, our latest episode is a descent into the uncanny, the unspeakable, and the inevitable. This isn’t just horror for the modern age—it’s a whisper from the void in the voice of your own ambition.
