This week, we bring you “Never Ever Ever” by Chris “Slimebeast” Wolf — an unsettling tale of a lonely bookstore clerk whose evening walk leads him to a secluded pond, an impossible encounter, and a warning he has every reason to obey.
After attempting to rescue someone from the water, he flees with one command ringing in his ears: never return. But in the months that follow, his life takes a remarkable turn. A better job, an unexpected romance, and a promising future all seem connected to a mysterious “little voice” encouraging others to help him.
Then he discovers that the woman he loves is hiding a sorrow his newfound happiness cannot fix. And the place he swore to avoid begins to seem like somewhere he needs to go.
How much would you risk for one more miracle?
Don’t miss this eerie tale of love, uncanny good fortune, and the danger of believing you understand what waits beneath the surface.

🖤 THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO HAS HELPED — AND A REQUEST TO THOSE WHO CAN 🖤
First and foremost, we want to say a tremendous THANK YOU to everyone who has donated to our GoFundMe.
The response we've seen, particularly over the past couple of days, has been incredibly encouraging. Every donation—no matter the amount—has helped us during an extremely difficult period, and just as importantly, it has reminded us how much Chilling Tales for Dark Nights means to the people who listen to and support what we create.
It means more to us than you know.
To everyone who has already donated: thank you. Truly. You stepped up when we needed you, and we're incredibly grateful.
For those who haven't donated yet, we're asking you to please consider doing so if you're in a position to help.
As we've shared recently, a series of circumstances outside our control created a substantial financial shortfall. The transition from our longtime podcast network to a new distribution partner resulted in essentially no podcast revenue for April and May—even though podcasting historically accounts for roughly 75–80% of our operating budget. Then, our mistaken YouTube demonetization cost us approximately two additional months of YouTube revenue that we will never recover.
Those losses don't stop the expenses required to produce our shows, compensate the people who work on them, maintain our infrastructure, and keep Chilling Tales for Dark Nights operating.
That's why your help right now matters so much.
đź–¤ DONATE TO OUR GOFUNDME:
gofundme.com/f/help-save-chi…
Every contribution helps us close the gap and gives us more breathing room to continue producing the stories and shows you've supported for so many years.
And whether you've already donated or you're looking for a way to provide ongoing support, we'd also sincerely ask you to consider becoming a Chilling Tales for Dark Nights Patron.
Patron memberships provide us with something that's especially important right now: dependable, recurring monthly revenue. That stability allows us to plan ahead, pay our team, and continue investing in the quality of our productions rather than constantly wondering what revenue from outside platforms will look like from one month to the next.
🔑 BECOME A PATRON:
chillingtalesfordarknights.c…
Memberships start at $7.99 per month, and signing up through our website gives you immediate access to our Patrons Area, including premium and extended podcast episodes and our extensive audio archive dating back to 2012.
If you've already donated, thank you for answering the call. If you haven't and you're able to contribute, please consider helping us today. And if you'd like to help provide the stability that can carry us beyond this immediate crisis, please consider becoming a Patron as well.
We know everyone has bills and responsibilities of their own, and we don't take a single dollar of your support for granted.
With your continued help, we hope to keep Chilling Tales for Dark Nights alive, healthy, and producing quality horror entertainment for a long, long time to come.
Thank you for listening.
Thank you for believing in what we do.
And thank you for helping us keep the darkness alive. đź–¤

🚨 WE DID IT. 🚨
We're thrilled to announce that, as of today, Chilling Tales for Dark Nights has officially been RE-MONETIZED on YouTube.
This wasn't something that happened quietly behind the scenes. Over the past several weeks, the horror community came together in a way we've rarely seen before. Dozens of affected creators and hundreds of passionate fans raised their voices across Twitter/X and beyond, demanding answers and accountability from YouTube after a wave of demonetizations impacted horror creators throughout the platform.
And for once, it appears they listened.
Do we suddenly trust YouTube? Of course not.
Do we have any guarantee they won't pull more shenanigans tomorrow, next week, or next month? Also no.
But today is still a victory.
Not just for Chilling Tales for Dark Nights, but for the entire horror narration community and every creator who fought to be heard. This outcome wasn't handed to us. It happened because creators stood together, fans refused to stay silent, and thousands of people made enough noise that YouTube could no longer ignore the issue.
To everyone who posted, shared, commented, tagged YouTube, signed petitions, spread awareness, and helped amplify our voices: thank you.
This happened because of YOU.
Please join us in congratulating all of the horror creators who have been re-monetized and give them a well-deserved round of applause. 👏👏👏
Today proves that when this community stands together, we can make a difference.
Thank you all for having our backs. We won't forget it.

Make sure that you follow for more updates! It's free!! Can't beat that in this economy!
Currently writing a new short story for an anthology.
I don't want to, nor can I, spoil anything about it, but holy shit, it's been fun to write.
This has roused the writing monster inside of me that has been slumbering for far too long.
