A soft‑spoken reading of Elizabeth Bowen’s “The Demon Lover,” a story that slips between memory, war‑time London, and the unsettling return of a promise made long ago. Mrs. Drover steps into her shuttered house for only a moment — but something is waiting for her, something that remembers her more clearly than she remembers herself.

This recording leans into the story’s quiet dread: the stillness of the empty street, the strange displacement of time, and the slow tightening of a past that refuses to stay buried. If you enjoy atmospheric narration, uncanny domestic spaces, and stories where the haunting is emotional as much as supernatural, you’ll feel right at home. Thank you for listening and wandering into the eerie with me ❤️

A quiet, atmospheric first dive into Darkest Dungeon, where gothic despair meets turn‑based strategy… and somehow I managed to keep everyone alive. I played a few rounds, admired the gorgeous art, and tried to bring a little calm narration to a world that really wants you to panic.

Setting sail into something delightfully chaotic today — Pirate Pillage and Plunder, a charming little adventure from Three Sided Die. I was gifted a Steam key and couldn’t resist diving in to see what kind of mischief, treasure, and gentle mayhem awaited. If you enjoy atmospheric indie games, this one has that handmade charm I love supporting ❤️

This is my third attempt and it's a stressful work day for me in real-life so this game was basically an outlet of chatting.This game has such an interesting gameplay loop that it's becoming quite addicting and I need to physically stop myself from playing to get work done 😂Developer:  @DangenEntertainment

This is my second attempt at Deck of Haunts and I make major progress, discover an accidental almost-cheat, and get to night 18 before I needed a break.

A quiet, atmospheric first playthrough of Deck of Haunts, a cozy‑uncanny haunting sim where you guide a house full of humans through soft dread, strange rituals, and slow‑burn mystery. I ended up getting surprisingly far — all the way to Night 9 — before our heart was destroyed 💔

If you like quiet horror, environmental storytelling, or games that feel like reading a ghostly journal by candlelight, this one is a treat.

Thank you for hanging out with me — and for being the coziest little haunting companions🌙

Tonight’s reading is a return to something dark, intimate, and familiar 🖤
The Vampire Maid by Hume Nisbet (1900) was one of the earliest pieces I ever recorded on this channel, almost exactly to the day back in 2019. It felt right to revisit it — a short, vampiric whisper for a night when the world feels a little too loud.

Thank you for being here, for listening, and for letting these stories keep you company.

This companionship with the facecam is a side of me you usually don't see, or hear, because I'm usually reacting to these stories I read you - and this way, you can be part of that. The eyebrow raises, the word mixups, the grimacing...and though it becomes quite lo-fi, I feel safe and free to share this intimacy with you. We're safe here and you get nose boops for the mistakes ❤️

Tonight’s Dark Devotion is The Garden of Adompha by Clark Ashton Smith — a story of love preserved beyond death, devotion that refuses to loosen its grip, and beauty that lingers where it should not. Adompha is not a story about hope. It is a story about fidelity taken to its final extreme.

Step into the strange, candlelit world of The Council with me. I’ve only just begun — about an hour in — but the atmosphere is already thick with secrets, odd alliances, and that delicious sense that everyone knows more than they’re saying.

This episode is a slow, 'we're learning things as we go' wander through the game’s early mysteries as I try to get my bearings… and also try to get my mouse to behave. Expect intrigue, tension, and a lot of “wait, what is happening” energy. Oh yea, and my mother is besties with George Washington, so there's that!

If you enjoy atmospheric story games, light chaos, or watching someone learn their mouse skills in real time, you’re in the right place ❤️ Thanks for being here for the journey. Developer:  ⁨@FocusEntertainmentOfficial⁩
