Welcome, dear listeners, to Whispers in the Dark—where shadows tell stories, and the night breathes secrets. I’m your guide through the unknown, your storyteller in the silence, weaving tales that will haunt your thoughts long after the last word fades. Here, we embrace the eerie, the unsettling, the stories that lurk just beyond the edge of the firelight. So settle in, dim the lights… and listen closely. The darkness has something to say.

The final tenth sinister tale from Whispers In The Dark Podcast is nearly here... and it's one that will haunt you long after the final whisper fades.

‘The Hollow Howl’

Newly divorced and disillusioned with city life, folklore scholar Maggie Ellis retreats to a remote Welsh cottage, Bryn Derw, to seek solitude and finish the book she’s long feared to write—Shadowed Land: The Forgotten Folklore of the Celtic Dead. But the isolation she craves soon gives way to something far more harrowing.

Nestled at the edge of an ancient forest, Bryn Derw seems to hum with the weight of the past. As Maggie settles in, the boundary between myth and reality begins to blur. A mournful howl haunts the mist-thick nights. Locals speak in hushed tones of the Ci’r Nos—the Dog of the Night, a spectral predator said to walk the borders between worlds, watching, waiting.

What begins as eerie disturbance deepens into a waking nightmare. As Maggie unearths chilling truths buried beneath Bryn Derw—bones, lost names, and the hollow road of legend—she realizes she has not merely stumbled into old folklore. She has become part of it. With each nightfall, the hollow calls her closer, and escape grows ever more impossible.
