Something about the disturbing, chilling, and macabre makes our skin crawl. And we love it. Tales From the Shadows takes haunting stories from all over, either found in the dark corners of the interwebs, or provided by listeners, and presents them in an immersive style. Your hosts, Bryton Abrahams and Kyle Roebuck, hope to give you a spooky, thrilling escape during your day, complete with overconfident acting and a little sound design. We hope you'll stay with us...'til the end.
