There is a general belief that books give a wider room for imaginations - even wider than the room that watching a movie affords you, and truthfully so. These tales, when listened to in the dark, will leave you with much to imagine - an arm covered in goose bumps and the back of your neck with all the hackles on their ends. The curtains you see might not be curtains. The mirrors, too, might become home to many faces and the old man by the road might not be what you think he is. Welcome to the home of scary and macabre tales.

Spoony is a kid with a heart of gold. He loves hugs, he loves affection, and he values friendship and family. But there is something about him that isn’t quite right.

Drawn by desperation to reunite with a misfit crew of old classmates—losers, same as he—and motivated by boredom as much as by revenge, Shakespeare hatches a half-serious plot to rob the town bank.

During the 2020 pandemic, a man began driving for Uber in a small college town. Little did he know the deep truths he would discover about himself, the profound insights into the human condition…. Actually, that’s bullshit. What he really discovered was a cash cow: drunk kids with too much money and a darth of local drivers. But all is not easy money and smooth tones vibin’ in the background. These kids are crazy, and crazy kids mean crazy stories.
