I found this podcast in season 6. I have enjoyed all of the stories thus far. However, the last episode, The Substitute, has been my favorite! I could imagine this being on television or an actual movie. It left me wanting to know more about that town and how the monster came into existence. I...Read full review »

I love the into music clip. It’s magic! :) Great show! Tanya Thompson was doing this short creepy factoid clip at the end of one episode that made me LOL for real though. It was just delivered so perfectly. Genius Note to sather86 who left a review saying: “Racist. If there was a show called...Read full review »

either it scares or it doesn’t. This doesn’t.

Thank you for these viewpoints. I have been binge listening because I love the genre and appreciate the various authors. Both the stories and interviews give me insight into parts of society I rarely encounter. I have become an occasional contributor on PayPal, both to acknowledge an unlevel...Read full review »

I’d been looking for a good storytelling podcast for a while and, as a Thirteen podcast fan, I was searching for something similar. I’d tried quite a few others that just failed to impress, so by the time I came across this one, my expectations were not high. I’m so happy to say that I have been...Read full review »

Excellent stories and fabulous narration.

I can't get enough of these stories. I love how I'm learning about different traditions and folklore from the African diaspora, and some of the twists in these creepy stories! I'm a super-fan at this point.Read full review »

I’m so happy I found this podcast! I don’t remember how but I’m not going to question it. The host is amazing and the stories, while some may not be to my preference, are still all amazing. I have never not finished an episode, nor have I left disappointed. I especially love that episodes...Read full review »

I have been searching for a while now, when I happened across the podcast I excitedly waited to listen to the first episode… I’ve been listening ever sinceAnd emphatically await each new episode as well as interview!
Tabbywon via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/20/22
About a year ago, I followed and listened to several of the episodes. It was in the midst of racial chaos everywhere. I was sick of it. Why did this have to be presented as black horror? Why couldn’t it just be horror? Why did it matter? Also the few episodes I heard, didn’t have the best audio....Read full review »

Great stories. Give em a listen, you’ll be hooked and there are stories for every horrid taste
nevertrumper666 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/04/21
Nightlight is by far the BEST horror podcast I’ve had the pleasure of listening to. They feature such chilling and horrifying stories. One thing I particularly enjoy are the interviews with the story’s author. The interviews are so thorough and inspiring. I’m a huge fan and highly recommend this...Read full review »

I LOVE THIS PODCAST. The stories are so well written, I can visualize everything - every detail and description are spot on. The narrators are also great. They really make the stories come to life.

Every story I’ve heard so far has been fantastic and gripping, and the voice actors are phenomenal. Would definitely recommend!

I have enjoyed all the stories and the narration, only one thing that I can’t help focusing on, the music in the back ground is slightly over powering. (Loud) Just my opinion but I feel it detracts from the experience. Best wishes from Roslin listener.
Roslin, Scotland via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 10/22/21
I enjoy this podcast but I hate the intro music, it’s way too loud and annoying. I like that they have a good variety of writers who probably wouldn’t be heard otherwise. Keep it up!
Becka2U via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/19/21
Amazing podcast! Recommended to all my friends and family!

A wonderful podcast with great stories by both emerging and established horror authors. Great show for the horror lovers!
DuskyProjects via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/07/21
This podcast is full of deliciously frightening stories, professionally performed and executed. If horror is your thing, give it a listen, and if horror isn’t your thing, this is a great entry point... it just might become your thing after all!
Jesse A Adams via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/07/21
This is absolutely one of my favorite podcasts, period. The stories are fresh and interesting; the writing is phenomenal, and the narrators/VAs are fantastic.
hey-mikey via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/07/21
Great podcast stories are wonderful . Was so happy when I found a horror podcast by us for us . Keep up the great work .
PaintedWalls via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/30/21
Normalize the audio across segments. It is irritating having to turn the volume down for an (annoyingly basic) intro only to have to crank it back up to hear the content. I really don’t care what color the authors are... I can’t discern that from text on a screen or grammatically correct...Read full review »

So many good stories on this podcast. I love having access to Black horror writers and the narrators are talented!

Tango of a Telltale Heart is my favorite so far!

It is nice to hear stories from different writers and I love it. It is my now one of my go to podcast for dark and horror stories. Keep it up!!!

I love this podcast and have been listening to it every night. I only wish Tonia Thompson spoke just a tiny bit slower so I can absorb every word and picture the story in my head as she speaks. I tried going to half speed on the settings, but then it is way to slow.
LP-littleA via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/24/20
... if it were a “white only” podcast, it would be classified as racist. How is this ANY different?
sather86 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/19/20
I was looking for a new short story horror anthology podcast and Nightlight popped up as a suggestion. I decided to give it a try and am very happy with this find. The stories, the productions, and the interviews are all excellent. I highly recommend.
