Sias Kruger recounts his visit to a mysterious holy site known as the Maw of the Earth to his employer, wishing to dissuade further probing into the region.

This is a simple story, very Weird Tales. A good change of pace after working on the last one for so long. Sias Kruger may be used again as a character- I enjoy the idea of a sort of underhanded nineteenth century relic hunter as a window to tell strange stories.

A man moves onto a remote Eastern Kentucky plot and fast finds himself faced with a series of happenings he can't explain.

This is the final in a trio of tales, with The Quirk Road being the first and The Horror of the Quirk Wood being the second, so you might want to give those a listen beforehand if you haven't heard them yet. Several of my other stories, including The Dreamer in the Gorge, are also tied to this, though their plots are not intertwined. It's my longest story to date, so hopefully it manages to hold your attention.

There will likely be another story in the future tied to the entity described in these stories and the apocalyptic events it means to enact, but it will come down the road. It'll be even longer than this- maybe novel-length, though I won't know until I actually sit down to work it out.

For now, I'll be moving back into my regular pace of Horror and Dark Fantasy stories.
