Read Before Midnight

W. H. Maxwell www.fictionalpage.com

Dive into the chilling world of 'Read Before Midnight' - where horror meets sci-fi in the haunting landscapes of rural Appalachia. Experience spine-tingling tales of small-town terrors, cosmic horrors, dystopian futures, and supernatural encounters that blur the lines between this world and the next.

From cosmic entities devouring entire towns to dystopian futures of horrific decisions and consequences, W.H. Maxwell's stories push the boundaries of horror and speculative fiction. Each episode weaves a tapestry of interconnected characters and locations, creating a rich, unsettling universe that grows with every story.

Perfect for fans of Stephen King's unnerving small-town horrors, H.P. Lovecraft's cosmic dread, Black Mirror's disturbing near-futures, and Shirley Jackson's psychological suspense. 'Read Before Midnight' doesn't just scare - it makes you question the nature of reality, morality, and humanity itself. With vivid prose, complex characters, and concepts that linger long after the story ends, this podcast is a must-listen for any horror or sci-fi enthusiast.

New episodes - Season Two! Binge the complete Season One now available on Amazon!
