About this listen

The night terror continues in Volume 2 of Night Tales with Cornelius Darkly, the location has changed — a 1990's advertising agency, where all hell has broken loose. Our narrator remains as your guide — now through this trippy body horror built on broken dreams. This is not for the faint hearted. Nightmares will come calling. Dive in if you dare.

Volume 1 set the bar high and Volume 2 takes it higher! Stories that make you smile one moment then give you goosebumps the next. Music and sound effects add to the tension and the stories stay with you long after listening. Highly recommended!

Another great volume of macabre delights

I absolutely LOVE the Darkly franchise, but this second series really takes it up a notch. We move from the childhood horrors of series 1 to the depressingly real adult horrors of the working world in series 2. Our dry, wry narrator is plagued with visions and encounters as horrific as the actions of his boss, his colleagues, and the corporate treadmill slowly eating at his soul. As somebody who has worked in agencies for many years, I can confirm the characters are relatable, the dreads and desires are real, and the moments hiding in the toilet are spot on! Gruesome moments of picture-perfect horror conjure the weird, close-to-home discomfort of David Lynch in this wonderful, viscerally creepy homage to the genre of horror. An absolute MUST listen, with some surprisingly poignant and even, dare I say, beautiful writing: “I’m a turd… I’m drowning in everyone’s shit, I’m slipping slowly into the abyss, at one with a universe of unwanted matter.”

We’ve all been there, narrator. We’ve all been there. More please, Stefan Shaw! 😈

Absolute freakiness - a tale of relatable, grotesque burnout for workers crushed by the system and stomped flat by life.
