"The Pond" S8E16 Drew Blood’s Dark Tales (Scary Stories Horror Podcast) Creepypastas

Deep in the woods, still waters run dark. This week on Drew Blood’s Dark Tales, we trade the noise of the world for the silence of nature—but something in that silence is listening. From acclaimed author Michael Marks comes a tale that blurs the line between solitude and madness, where reflection turns to obsession and the shadows of the mind are the hardest to escape. ▬ LISTEN TO THIS EPISODE AD-FREE IN OUR PATRONS AREA ▬ 🗝️ https://www.chillingtalesfordarknight... 📚 PICK UP A COPY OF AUTHOR MICHAEL MARKS'S LATEST BOOK, "Spiraling Down: 27 Tales of Horror and the Supernatural": https://amzn.to/42Zr2ym TODAY'S STORIES ARE BROUGHT TO YOU COURTESY OF VELOX BOOKS: At Velox Books, they're passionate about bringing the most chilling, weird, and captivating horror tales to readers who crave the extraordinary. 📚 Buy their books on Amazon now: https://amzn.to/40Rblbt • See more about Velox at: https://www.veloxbooks.com • Sign up for their newsletter here: https://www.veloxbooks.com/free-book/ TURN OFF THE LIGHTS, AND TURN ON THE DARK. ⏮️ PREVIOUS EPISODE "Healing Hands" Drew Blood's Dark Tales S8E15:    • "Healing Hands" S8E15 Drew Blood’s Dark Ta...   ⏭️ NEXT EPISODE "Devil's Night" Drew Blood's Dark Tales S8E17:    • "Devil's Night" S8E17 Drew Blood’s Dark Ta...   ⚠️ Skip the intro: 2:42 ⏰ NAVIGATION / FEATURED STORIES: ✦ 00:00 - Episode Start ✦ 02:54 - "The Pond" by Michael Marks (performed by Drew Blood) PODCAST EPISODE SUMMARY "The Pond" – Burned out and longing for peace, Marcus retreats to a secluded cabin, hoping the quiet of the woods will restore his balance.
