"The darkness from the books" by Tobias Prediger will scare the heck out of you. Bavarian Darkness meets Lovecraftian Horror, and the sound design and music for this outfit by Cvltist Erich Batek will let your mind burst. So be warned—this isn’t for the faint of heart! Here’s an explicit trigger warning: If you think you’re weird sometimes and are being followed on your way home by some guy in a yellow robe and a pale mask, then you’d better stay away from this. It might not end well for you … ????
We’re thrilled that Dominik Valentin Peter, the first narrator we ever worked with, was back on board. He’s the best Lovecraft protagonist you could imagine, but after he delivered the recording, nobody ever saw him again. Maybe he opened doors that were not meant to be opened …
American voice actor Ehren Mierau joined this drastic chamber play and does a fantastic job as well.
Put on your headphones, turn off the lights, and let yourself fall into the darkness from the books …
By the way, the author designed the cover himself—the old gods will be merciful to him.
Lose your mind with Audible:
Do you hear that strange BookBeat?
"A flaming inferno shakes a mental hospital in the Bavarian Forest and the death of a patient brings a young psychologist dangerously close to the abyss of madness.
What drove the arsonist to commit his self-destructive act?
Is a mysterious book the key to the dramatic event?
With „The darkness from the books“, Tobias Prediger's first short story is now being published by Yellow King Productions.
In his story „The darkness from the books“, Tobias Prediger succeeds in drawing the reader into the maelstrom of mental abysses in just a few pages. Right to the infernal end. And we wouldn’t want to be in the shoes of the narrator, who is a "executor" of this story. Because beware: madness – as HPL already knew – is particularly contagious when it comes from the darkness of books.
