Welcome to The Wicked Library for our season of Sci-Fi Themed Horror. 
Author: Michelle Renee Lane
Storyteller: GP Mackenzie
Featuring a custom score by Nico Vettese, of We Talk of Dreams. 
Story Summary: 
Lizzy is a bi-racial teen who escapes her reality of growing up in a homogeneously white rural town in Central Pennsylvania in the mid-80’s by dropping acid and embracing the local punk scene. A typical evening out turns nightmarish when she discovers that the LSD she’s been taking can transport her through time. 

Warning: The Wicked Library is a horror fiction podcast created for a mature audience. Our stories contain graphic descriptions of pain, murder, violence, blood, betrayal, and inhumanity; monsters win, people die, and hope is often shattered. There is also beauty, heart, catharsis, and raw emotion. Fear may be deeply personal, but we all share it.

If at any time a story takes you to a place too dark, turn on the lights, press pause, or press stop. And always remember, that unlike in the real world, these nightmares and your participation are under your control.

TWL PM 2021: Pride Month Horror Special – Eight Wicked Tales

It's our 2021 Pride Month Horror Special!

For Pride Month we're celebrating LBGTQ+ voices with eight dark tales written by eight amazingly talented queer writers, and presented by TWL alum and author, Davis Walden. Davis is also the creator of the Viridian Wild, an Audio Drama Podcast. For almost every tale we’ve matched a queer voice to the tale to maximize representation

  1. "A Little Too Late for Little Green Men", by Hailey Piper - Told by Skylar McElwee
    An unfriendly encounter at a party for UFO enthusiasts turns from hateful to strange when the real deal preys on Demeter the same night.
  2. "Eleven", by Briana Morgan - Told by Addison Peacock
    A grieving girl chooses to play a dangerous Internet game for the chance to see her dead girlfriend again.
  3. "Preserved by Tears", by Mel - Told by Nathan Blades
    They are paid to watch, not get involved, but Alex can't help the tickling curiosity of it all. What happens behind the apothecary's doors that leaves every employee a crying mess?
  4. "The Mell Well", by Davis Walden - Told by Michael A Turrentine
    Two friends trek out into the jungle to explore an abandoned building, but something has already made its home there.
  5. "Holy Water", by M. Regan - Told by Addison Peacock
    In the wastes of a world gone dry, a sea witch ruminates on the creation of water while her partner mulls on its memory. On their memories. And on how many times she has killed her lover.
  6. "Ténèbres Mon Amour", by Pippa Bailey - Told by Erika Sanderson
    A non-binary horror story, about love between the undefined, amid the destruction and rebirth of Darkness itself.
  7. "Tie a Black Thread to Everything that Remains", by Eric LaRocca - Told by Louie Pollard
    A frightened, young schoolboy. A love that “dare not speak its name”. A phantom with a sinister warning. A student at an English boarding school learns of love and loss when a fellow classmate perishes unexpectedly during the winter recess.
  8. "Everything She's Looking For", by Caitlin Marceau - Told by Alicia Atkins
    This queer horror-romance explores the dangers of giving too much of yourself to a relationship. It looks at the connection between two young women and what happens when that love becomes toxic.
