About this listen

Irvin S. Cobb’s Darkness is a gripping and eerie tale that explores fear, isolation, and the unsettling power of the unknown. Set in an environment where shadows seem to move and silence holds an eerie weight, the story follows a protagonist confronted with inexplicable horrors lurking just beyond the light. As tension builds and paranoia takes hold, Darkness weaves a masterful narrative that plays on psychological terror and atmospheric suspense.

Narrated by Roger Arnold, this audiobook brings Cobb’s chilling prose to life, immersing listeners in a world where every creak, whisper, and flicker of light could mean impending doom. Blending classic horror elements with psychological dread, Darkness stands as a timeless short story in early American horror literature, delivering a haunting experience that lingers long after the final words.

Originally published in the early 20th century, Irvin S. Cobb’s foray into dark fiction showcases his remarkable ability to create tension, proving why his works remain a fascinating part of literary history.
