About this episode
This episode explores the psychological horror of choices made under grief and temptation.
In this chilling installment of Scary Stories Told in the Dark, Malcolm Blackwood invites listeners into a night of psychological horror where the most terrifying things are not monsters lurking in the dark, but the choices people make when grief, rage, and temptation press in from all sides. Featuring Mak Ralston’s “All Hands Are Red,” this episode descends into a world of contradiction, private pain, and quiet moral collapse, where justice and vengeance begin to resemble one another in all the worst ways. Darkly intimate, unnerving, and steeped in dread, this is a tale for anyone who’s ever wondered what it really takes to push an ordinary person past the point of no return.
