      @@Jyiber I really like lighthouse, but there have been narrations where I switched to another narrator because the tone/voice(?) was too constant. Maybe they were older narrations. But in one particular instance, I lost all immersion when not only did the main character sound anxious kind of like Squidward telling the ghost story with the Hash-Sliging-Slasher, but so did the cop, who, in the story was telling the main character to stand down and take cover etc... Now this would still be okay for certain story types, except that this wasn't a re-telling /recollection type of story- it was told as if it were unfolding in real-time (first person, present tense). This ruined any immersion I had and I had to switch because I couldn't't stop focusing on it from that point on.
      This can break the atmosphere of the story in more subtle ways too. If the narrator sounds anxious from the very start (like when describing their normal daily life) then it creates an emotional reference point that detracts from how they might sound later on in the story when they should actually be anxious. Sure, you could amp up the tone respectively, but this still limits the range of emotions that can be expressed without straying too far from the norm set by the reference point in the beginning or going overboard with it to the point of being ridiculous.
      Lol this was not meant to be a book-! I just felt like if I'm going to say something I should back it up. I'll leave it there!

      @@JL-to9vg All my favorites try to use natural and appropriate speaking cadence for dialogue and if possible different voices, wether their own or another VA. Nature'sTemper is good at that. But I also like guys like Magnatar who can inject a little intensity into the read; which favors his preference to pick cosmic horror and scifi military stories. I also have found some narrators are guilty of a flat speaking style, for example I don't hate Scaryjuju, but sometimes I lose the plot when the delivery is too monotonous (which lighthouse is guilty of sometimes).

    This one was especially terrifying cuz it doesn’t completely make sense, it was realistic but at the same time the unexplained parts make it borderline supernatural in a very disturbing way. I think this is probably the only type of horror I genuinely find disturbing and I love it.

Really pulls the story arc together nicely. As always, your narration and editing are top tier. I do like the segment with your thoughts at the end.

    I’d heard the whole “lights outside my window” type story before where it’s just a creep stalking a child. The way it kept going though, and like you said “evolving” was masterfully done. The story is designed to develop a constantly sinking pit in your stomach. That primal sense of danger like how dogs sense earthquakes. I hope it goes without saying that you not only have immaculate narration and editing skills (of which has inspired me to pursue voice acting), but have a keen eye for picking some of the best stories I’ve ever heard. I’m sure I would never have heard of or seen the works of these amazing authors. For that more than anything I am extremely appreciative of your content and all the amazing work you do. Thank you!

    this story kept me on my toes from start to finish. exceptional writing paired with exceptional storytelling.
    i loved how everything at first seems to be supernatural but is then explained in a way that makes it seem like it would be possible irl. that is what gets to me, that this could happen to someone, maybe not to the extent of this story but nevertheless it makes everything a bit more creepy and scary.

  • @saplingtree8020

    It's near impossible to creep me out or scare me. This story scared me. The man in the woods at the start, the man hiding under the bed, and the man crouched in the corner of the closet. One of my biggest fears is people secretly living in my house without me knowing, or being in a situation with a dangerous person where i can't easily escape. Stories like these make me look around my room to make sure there aren't shadowy figures lurking in the corners or just out of my sight. I love listening to these!
    Edit: May the algorithm bless this video!

    I really liked this one, it seemed really well thought out, I also thought it was going to be about aliens from the lights and stuff, but then I still don't know what the actual antagonist was, was it some weird guy or was it some supernatural entity controlling/manipulating the other characters in the story? Very good story and I like the ending being left open with lots of room for speculation. Also your after comments were cool and I think you should do that more 😁

    Just finished this episode on the podcast in awe. Easily one of the best stories you've narrated - great pacing, actually unsettling, truly psychological horror. Felt like I was getting messed with personally.
    Plus, it leaves so many things to the unknown. Way too many stories you feature flat out give away the monster or twist. The best way to tell a scary story is to barely answer questions!

    This story is great! It reminds me a lot of the penpal series. Great set up and it keeps you guessing on whether there was a supernatural element to it or not. It’s one of those stories that gives you a suitable explanation for most of the weird stuff that happens, but the explanations aren’t conclusive which makes my imagination go wild in terms of the possibilities. Thanks for the narration !

    Edit: That was great! I really like how there was nothing too paranormal about it, it was mostly realistic. There was obviously the occasional possession type thing, but overall it was something that could happen. That's my favorite type of horror, along with psychological horror.
