Summary

While hosting a popular late-night radio segment called Tell Me a Story author Joel Farrelly encounters a vast array of different callers from all walks of life, each with their own unique and often terrifying tale to tell. This is a collection of the show's most memorable segments as well as a memoir of how it all went horribly wrong when, at the height of his success, a mysterious caller forced Joel to recount a disturbing story from his own past... The one story Joel hoped he would never have to tell.

Enjoyable but short

I really enjoyed this, it had potential for lots more stories though so felt a bit disappointed it was so short because the premise was really good. So what it is is good. but could have been longer

Scarier than expected

I am fairly hard to scare but these stories are wonderfully spooky without resorting to cheap violence and sex. Each story grows a sense of unease reaching to a terrifying crescendo. Highly recommend

what a gripping listen!

Honestly I'm baffled that this was a free listen! amazingly well read and the story kept me hooked, listened I'm 1 sitting. The only downfall was how abruptly it ended leaving me wanting more, and how short it was. I'll be looking for this author again

Not great

Schlock horror, not for mainstream fans. Narration suited the style. Definitely glad it was included and not purchased!

It didn't satisfy the hunger it created

I enjoyed this novel, but; I kept feeling like I needed more from the stories. The writings were creating interest and drawing me in but they just didn't seem to satisfy my curiosity.
I would recommend giving this a read however.
A solid 4/5 from me.
