Sorry to hear about your illness! I just listened to one of the previous ones where you said you hoped you didn't get sick again. Guess that didn't work out. Take as much time as you need to rest! I always listen to these while going some hand assembly at work. Makes the tediousness go by faster. Your narrations are the best I've heard. I love the tone in which you use to record. It always sounds so genuine. I think I've listened to every video you have, even the old ones, and I'm working back around for a second loop and showing some to my roommate. This story was interesting! I liked the realistic nature of it a lot. It's sobering to remember that not all horrors are supernatural. Very excited for the re-record of the portal in the forest! I loved the original, and can't wait for the "remastered" version. Thanks for all you do and feel better soon!

[@xvenomxreap3rx]

It started off kinda horrific then to feeling sadness for miles.. I'm not ashamed to admit hearing how he was treated to him being in the hospital near enough crying when the word "crayon" was said and him trying his hardest to get words out did form a slight tear. Then it went completely horrific again.. I did kinda feel sorry for the big guy though. He was probably only doing what he did to either 1. Not to get tortured again 2. Cause he wanted his torment to end Yeah he went the wrong way about getting that outcome but maybe in his head that was the only way. I am happy Miles is doing better now and I hope the guys who experienced all that can live life to a normal exent one day. This is by far one of my favourites. I usually listen to your stories to help me sleep (sounds odd I know.. scary stories to help one sleep) but they honestly do.. tried allsorts to try and help me sleep and only your stories help.. now i must get going. Had to pause this story so it doesn't go onto the next one on the queue.. the whisperer one 😁

I have no idea how it took me so long to find this guy. I live off these stores. I have adhd and it's not easy to deal with at 25 years old and trying to hold down a highly technical job. Luckily I'm by myself most of the time and don't have to listen for anything. So I pop in a headpohone and listen. I've racked up thousands of hours and listened to hundreds or creators tell thousands of stories. Without a doubt I have a new favorite. I can hear the effort he puts into these stores they help me work, do chores around my house, fall asleep you name it I've probably got an earbud in and listening to this channel. My wife gets aggravated with me sometimes and jokingly tells me I listen to "that dark guy" more than I listen to her. Sorry for rambling I just wanted to explain that I've got a lot of experience with creators in the horror/creeppasta narrations but after finding this channel I've basically ignored everything else.
