This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. Some traditions never sleep. When Maribel agrees to meet her best friend for a quiet evening in Cali, she expects nothing more than good conversation, too much wine, and the drive home to Palmira. Instead, a strange sound from the darkness beside the road changes everything. By morning, her friend is dead. As the police search for answers, Maribel discovers that the death is only the latest in a series of unexplained attacks spreading through the sugar cane fields and rural communities of Colombia’s Valle del Cauca. Farmers whisper about livestock disappearing. Hunters speak of tracks that should not exist. And an old man in a poncho seems to be watching her wherever she goes. Unknown to almost everyone, two ordinary men have spent decades protecting the countryside from a secret older than the Republic itself. They call themselves Los Caballeros—the Night Watch—and they know that what is hunting again is neither animal nor myth. Drawn into their hidden world, Maribel must decide whether to walk away from the life she knows or stand beside the last guardians of an ancient tradition before something forgotten emerges from the darkness. Set against the cane fields, forests, and colonial churches of southwestern Colombia, Los Caballeros: The Palmira Night Watch is a supernatural thriller that blends folklore, faith, mystery, and relentless suspense into a story where the oldest battles are fought far from the places anyone is watching.Show book

An author’s talents may seem obvious and indisputable as they move words and ideas into gathered phrases and stories. But where do these ideas and stories come from? A lonely thought that suddenly gathers form? An inspiration from a Muse? A suggestion from an everyday event? Perhaps in the case of their darker, more malevolent stories, other forces are at work. They help to nourish single words into sentences and paragraphs that ease themselves from the shadows and are suddenly upon us in twisted revelation that may thrill, may disturb, but will always engage and help us explore the edge of darkness where some of the very best literature patiently lurks …. waiting …. for the likes of me and you.Show book
This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. The main character of the story is Harry Houdini - the supposed author of the work, a magician, and a specialist in extraordinary escapes. During his trip to Egypt, his abilities are horrifyingly put to the test, and he confronts ancient nightmares in the underground chambers beneath the Sphinx. Lovecraft wrote the text on commission for the owner of "Weird Tales." Harry Houdini, the famous escape artist, had a column in the magazine in 1924. Writers who contributed to the magazine created stories with him as the protagonist, and H.P. Lovecraft was chosen as the author for one of them. The writer received an outline of the scenario upon which he was to create the story. The story seemed credible to him, but when he learned that it was entirely fictional, he requested creative freedom regarding the extent of fantastical elements. Houdini was thrilled with the story. He and Lovecraft became friends. The famous magician even helped H.P. Lovecraft look for work in New York. The story was published under Houdini's name, with a changed title: "Imprisoned with the Pharaohs."Show book
