Sinossi

In midwinter, an aspiring politician finds himself suddenly deprived of human contact.
Newcomers to a town are strangely reminiscent of people lost in a recent flood.
Demonstrators on a peace march see the faces of sleeping children in the snow.
A failed musician meets his own ancestors getting off a midnight train. The Terrible Changes is a journey through the shadow-realm between reality and dream, between clarity and madness, between the living and the dead. In Joel Lane's fiction, the weird is a symbolic language expressing the chilling beauty, sadness and mystery of real life, combining the supernatural with themes of human loss, passion, solitude and despair, in the tradition of Robert Aickman, John Ramsey Campbell, and M. John Harrison.
From 'The Brand' (1983) to 'Alouette' (2008), these stories span a quarter-century of writing: urban horror tales, elegiac ghost stories, erotic reveries and psychological fugues. Long unavailable, The Terrible Changes is now back in print for a new audience, adding to Joel Lane's legacy as a true master of the weird.

    Be careful what you wish for… 
    The Monkey’s Paw by W.W. Jacobs is one of the most chilling and enduring tales of supernatural horror ever written. First published in 1902, this short story explores the terrifying consequences of tampering with fate. When an old family receives a magical monkey’s paw—an object that grants its owner three wishes—they soon learn that every gift comes at a dreadful cost. 
    As suspense builds and wishes are made, Jacobs masterfully draws listeners into a dark atmosphere of dread and inevitability. With gothic overtones, sharp dialogue, and a slow-building sense of terror, The Monkey’s Paw remains a classic of macabre fiction and moral consequence. 
    This full audiobook brings the haunting tale to life with rich, atmospheric narration that will captivate fans of horror, gothic fiction, and classic short stories. Ideal for listeners who enjoy unsettling narratives with a psychological edge.

    ''After a mysterious asteroid impacts the planet Deluuvius, nameless horrors emerge from it and spread swiftly out from the crater in all directions. The planet’s primitive inhabitants come to investigate, but are attacked immediately. The people know nothing of the invaders, and that merciful ignorance is their only defense against the immortal alien abominations. Millions of years in the past, a faceless trio of incomprehensible entities emerged from a distant corner of reality and gave life to the abominations. They are the Three, and their home was a place beyond the reach of reason, but after a great struggle, they and their creations are eventually driven into the many haunted wastelands of Deluuvius. Thousands of years later, Dash, a brave individual with an uncertain youth, must travel into each of the treacherous wastelands to discover his enemies’ origins. Dash must solve the mystery of the Three in the most stunning mixture of fantasy and science fiction ever told.'' (Origin of Mystery is a pivotal work that this fully voiced audio-drama brings to life with sound-effects and original music.)

    The story is narrated by a man condemned to die, who recounts the horrifying events that led to his downfall. Once a kind and animal-loving individual, he succumbs to alcoholism, which transforms him into a violent and abusive person. His escalating cruelty culminates in the mutilation and eventual murder of his beloved black cat, Pluto. A second, similar black cat appears, seemingly embodying his guilt and driving him further into madness. This new cat, with a white patch on its chest that eerily resembles a gallows, becomes a constant tormentor, leading the narrator to commit an even more heinous act: the murder of his wife. Ultimately, the presence of the second cat leads to the discovery of his crime and his impending execution.
