Sleepy Time Tales - Bedtime Stories for Sleep and Relaxation

Tonight’s story from H.G. Wells takes a dark turn, but the way I tell it you won’t find sleep a stranger. Earth has a close cosmic encounter with an astronomical event, but your slumber will come before the disaster.

This episode guests stars some local birdlife. So if you hear weird squawking, that’s hadeda calls.

Story 16:41
