Hello, creeps. Tonight, I wanted to share with you one of my favorite stories, since it is the most magical time of the year. In this month's episode, we feast on the human heart as we attempt to understand love. Like a drug, love can lift us to heights we didn't know were possible, and when taken away, can leave us feeling destroyed, or worse, destructive. Tonight, we see one man's journey as he prepares to purge himself of the memories of his wife. I hope this story can add a bit of spook and horror to your October. Happy Halloween! 

The Tantalus Feast

"The Offering"

Feeling lonely? Don't quite fit in? Well, no need to fear. You'll find comfort in knowing there is a place for all of us: a six-foot-deep cavern for you to cozy on into for all of eternity. Welcome back, creeps! Fall is upon us and in celebration, I am bringing you a creepy tale from beyond the grave. This month's feast follows the life, death and reincarnation of a young girl, Anastasia. I hope that you will join us for tonight's meal. 

"Maggots Like Pearls"

Welcome, creepy! With all of this summer heat, no one is really in the mood for a large meal. That is why tonight we are serving up something small and easily digestible. In tonight's story, we explore something primal that hides deep within each of us: fear. Specifically, we get a glimpse into the fears of a young boy. But, because fear and excitement evoke a common feeling, what will happen when our young friend comes face-to-face with his nightmares? Find out in tonight's tale. Thank you for joining and I hope you enjoy. 

"The Python King"

Welcome back, horror fans! Have an appetite for fright? Well, tonight's meal is equal parts tasty and terrifying, and I'm glad you're here to partake in the festivities. We do, however, have common similarities. And what is more universal than our fear of death? We all fear the reaper, but what would you do if you were given a chance to know the time and place of your own demise? Would your curiosity get the best of you, or would you opt for the final surprise? 

"Dressed for Her Own Funeral"

Welcome to the first episode of The Tantalus Feast! For tonight's main course, enjoy a tale of family cruelty served with a side of fright. This evening, we toe the line between reality and illusion, harmony and disarray, friend and foe, as we explore the inner workings of a family's bond--or lack thereof. I hope you enjoy and happy horrors!      

"Mum's the Word"

Come grab a plate and join the feast to hear some original horror fiction but be warned, if you don't survive you might just end up on the menu.
