Settle in for a riveting collection of stories from 26 Indigenous authors, performed by 9 Indigenous narrators. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Emily Connelly discuss these horror stories packed with fearsome creatures, dangerous spirits, and horrifying humans. Listeners will be shocked, scared, and delighted by stories from well-known and newer authors alike, all narrated with skill. Sheldon Elter’s matter-of-fact portrayal of a frustrated son transforms into very believable terror in Cherie Dimaline’s “Tick Talk.” Tara Sky’s youthful voice enlivens two disturbingly realistic stories of white people manipulating Indigenous girls and women with unsettling sincerity. Listeners will find stories full of horror and fear—yet community, humor, and joy abound.
