CHAPTER II: "YOU OPENED IT" (by yours truly, Pam Breshears)

Therion Scorn and WereTortoise, I truly apologize for not adding you to the credits 💙

You follow Mistress Midnight into the drowned heart of Innsmouth, where stone streets echo with ancient secrets and temples sink beneath the tide. The townsfolk do not speak—but their eyes follow. Something in them remembers you.

Beneath a crumbling sanctuary swallowed by the sea, the scroll waits—sealed in silence, tainted by prophecy. When you take it, the darkness breathes. When you open it… something opens back.

Mistress Midnight does not stop you. She wanted this.

There is no choice this time, Lorekeeper. The consequences are already in motion.

Soft spoken reading of the Wood of the Dead by Algernon Blackwood.

In The Wood of the Dead, Algernon Blackwood weaves an eerie tale of isolation, spectral whispers, and the ominous presence of the past. The story follows a traveler who arrives in a remote village, where the air is thick with an uncanny stillness. As he wanders into the ancient forest bordering the settlement, he encounters an unsettling old man—one who speaks in cryptic riddles about the dead lingering among the trees.

The deeper the traveler ventures, the more he feels the suffocating weight of unseen eyes and the rustling of something beyond the physical world. The villagers live in quiet fear, their words laced with hints of long-forgotten sins and restless spirits that refuse to be buried. The wood itself seems alive, pulsating with an unnatural presence that hungers for recognition.

As the tale unfolds, Blackwood masterfully builds an atmosphere of creeping dread, blending folklore, the supernatural, and psychological horror into a chilling meditation on mortality and the unseen forces that stalk the living. The traveler—skeptical at first—soon finds that some boundaries between life and death are not easily crossed... nor easily escaped.

Soft spoken ASMR is used to provide listeners with comfort to ease symptoms of insomnia, anxiety, depression, and ptsd. ASMR with atmospheric sounds—like gentle whispering, soft taps, and calming nature noises works wonders for relaxation and anxiety relief. The soothing sounds and personal attention mimic a comforting, nurturing experience, while promoting mindfulness and focus that diverts attention from anxious thoughts. Physiologically, ASMR can lower heart rate and blood pressure, activating neural circuits linked to relaxation. This powerful combination creates a serene environment, helping individuals unwind and feel at peace. Listen with headphones for the best experience.

This channel is intended to provide you with a comfortable space to relax and fall asleep. I welcome all comments and suggestions for stories because this channel is meant for you, my darling.
