For the last few rounds, the Witch Machine had been making a slight groan. But now that groan turned into a whine and an ominous rattle. We all recoiled as the whine rose to a moan and then a keening howl. Sometimes mechanical-sounding, sometimes almost human. --Written by Alexander Saxton Support The Wrong Station by subscribing at www.patreon.com/thewrongstation .

“Mr Carter,” he began, tossing down a manila file folder. “Do you know who I am and why I’m here?” “You’re the Shrink.” Carter didn’t make eye-contact. “You’re here because the Judge wants to know if I’m crazy.” At least he was lucid, the Shrink thought. It made for a pleasant change of pace. --Written by Alexander Saxton Support The Wrong Station by subscribing at www.patreon.com/thewrongstation .

I turned off the light on my phone and sat there, down in that space. In the utter blackness, in the cool, hidden from the pressures of the world. There were no draining bank accounts down there, no stalled careers, no worlds spinning out into madness and loss. There was nothing. And that was a relief. Down there it was safe, contained, cool... empty. --Written by Alexander Saxton and performed by Anthony Botelho Support The Wrong Station by subscribing at www.patreon.com/thewrongstation . The W...
“Sleipnir,” I said. It was the name of the Ghost Ship we were out there trying to find. “Sleipnir.

Rip, peel, puncture... Wrench, boil, burn... When Fado worked, the troubling dreams - if they were dreams - seemed to vanish.

"Like a Goddess of the sea, she raised her pearled hand, and with her gesture came a rising wave that darkened as it grew until it hit the shore and burst; and from the wave the Lathe-Worm howled forth."

The fog grew thick, and soon his only guide through the white void was the sound of running water up ahead. And now his foot rang not against soft loam, but hard, polished stone. As he knelt, he felt the cool touch of marble. “Welcome.” The voice spoke from the belly of the mists ahead, from close to that sound of running water. It was not human. Its vibrations buzzed along his brainstem. --Written by Alexander Saxton Support The Wrong Station by subscribing at www.patreon.com/thewrongstation . ...
In a place like this the fog might thicken in a minute, and then could last for days or months, or never end at all. How many others had set off with a light heart, into the mist and shadow of the Dimness Fens, never again to return? How many sets of bones were black’ning in the bogs; how many sleeping bodies were preserved beneath the still and pine-steeped waters of its sumps and sloughs? --Written by Alexander Saxton Support The Wrong Station by subscribing at www.patreon.com/thewrongstation ...
“I’d like to wake up please," she said. "How do I wake up? I don’t like how this feels.” “It’s normal to feel a little bit off at first," he tried to assure her.

It was in the Maestro’s studio, all lit up golden and dark with the golden-hour light that streamed through its wide-arched window, that the Maestro asked Dulcamara to kill a man, for what would be the final time.“Of course Maestro,” The apprentice replied. “Shall it be the Dagger or the Poisoned Chalice?” --Written by Alexander Saxton Support The Wrong Station by subscribing at www.patreon.com/thewrongstation .

It sat there, under the light. The Egg . Huge, murky and amber. It seemed firm, but still sagged just a bit where it sat. Whatever was inside—if there was anything inside at all—wasn’t clear. The golden casing and yellow-red liquid inside were too opaque to see through. --Written by Anthony Botelho and performed by Liz Der.

I knew then that it didn’t matter that the black mask gave no indication, no inkling of any emotion. The Harlequin was aware of my presence and, in some way, its attention was entirely directed at me.

He held up a jar containing a chunk of stone the colour of yellow pollen. Out of it grew a crystal like sunset or ruby grapefruit; striking in colour, yet… repulsive to look at in some way.

One of those nights, huh? Sorry to pry; it just looks like there’s a lot on your mind.

Something strange happened during this rewatch. I started to cry. And it wasn’t for the sake of the man in the video. Like I told you: I’d seen him die before. I’d done my part, borne witness. But this time I was crying out of relief. I was crying because the algorithm had served me up something I could handle; something that couldn’t hurt me any more than it already had. --Written by Alexander Saxton and performed by Anthony Botelho Support The Wrong Station by subscribing at www.patreon.com/th...
He told me he was a type of Latin called a Frank, and that he had sworn his life to the Knights Hospitaller, and within them, to the Order of St. Lazarus. I noticed he did not eat or drink anything, and that when the wind died away, he had a faint, unpleasant smell of rotten sweetness. “The Order of Saint Lazarus…” I began. “Indeed,” he said. “It is composed of lepers.” --Written by Alexander Saxton.

It was morning when we got there, barely past dawn, and we had a little surprise waiting for us right there on the road into town. Now, they said that there had been killings happening. But the Agency had spared the details. Or maybe the mining company had—who knows? But this was a little more than just killing. --Written by Anthony Botelho.

“You mean a contest,” he said. A slow, crazed smile spread across Practical’s yellowed teeth. He glanced around the room, as if to reassure himself this was not a dream; it must have been the exact scenario he had fantasized about a thousand times. “Very well then, you have yourself a bet.

The monster knew nothing. And then, to a chorus of gasps, it was born. Its flesh - once rigid, tall, and wooden - had been transformed into thickly-corded muscle and dense chitin. The body that had spent so many years upright now lay along the ground supported by two dozen different legs. --Written by Jacob Duarte Spiel.

"No, altogether, people didn’t care too much for young Madeleine Graves, and though I don’t believe I would have much enjoyed spending an evening at the Graves Family dinner table, in the presence of that watchful, grey-eyed child who liked so much to gum at her hair and pick at her scabs, I can’t say it was anything other than a tragedy. And so, being denied the companionship of people, Madeleine wanted a cat." --Written by Alexander Saxton. Support The Wrong Station by subscribing at www.patre...
It began with a deep hum somewhere in the wall behind Samo, and then a tingle of static in the air. “Sail away, sail away, hah...” Doctor Martel said from behind the one-way glass, flicking a series of unseen switches to power up the machine. “Just like falling asleep.” Only it wasn’t like falling asleep; just falling. --Written by Alexander Saxton.

“There is no escape from the Valley.” That’s what they say, isn’t it? I see how you could believe that.

How deep could that water be? Calf-deep? Knee-deep? Certainly not much more than that, with all those rocks and jags of rusted metal scraping the underside of the surface.
