As The Raven Dreams Podcast - Scary Stories Collection (Vol. 11) - 3 ORIGINAL SHORT HORROR STORIES

Starting point is 00:00:00 Lazang sur-gillet, Pugance-Moyerned 15 minutes. We're like it's the hour dojo. Prere to play. Vive the pleasure with Leo Jo.

Starting point is 00:00:08 The casino in-line that proposes the more recent machine-a-soo and the new-res to pay-a-Bas-Bonanza. No, no longer.

Starting point is 00:00:27 POS Bonanza. Veillage me in a fashion responsible. The conditions apply. It's something else here now. Something new. From, exclusively on Paramount Plus, it's the series Stephen King calls scary as hell.

Starting point is 00:00:39 Everything here is impossible, but it's also real. Sci-fi vision comes at the best show streaming right now. We're running out of time and we still don't know the rules. Don't miss what the movie blog calls something you need to watch.

Starting point is 00:00:52 Saving those children is how we all go home. From, binge all episodes, on Paramount Plus. Samson was known for stealing other people's wives. Emphasis on was. You see, Brian Samson was my neighbor, and he had a reputation around town. He'd been caught in bed with more married women

Starting point is 00:01:28 than you could even think to count. Odds are he'd received just as many beatings because of it. The thing about Brian Samson, is that he was kind of a jackass. There's the obvious. He was destroying marriages, but he was also the kind of guy to park on the road in front of driveways after driving home drunk at 2 in the morning,

Starting point is 00:01:52 play his music too loudly, rev his piece of crap's car motor randomly just to be a nuisance. Honestly, he was a hundred times worse than words can paint. He was truly the scum of the, the earth. Now, one could say that the women Brian slept with were just as at fault as he was, but Brian, Brian was something special. He was truly irresistible to those that he wanted, and damn near invincible to those that beat the hell out of him on the regular. That all said, let's move on to how he and I met. One day, last October,

Starting point is 00:02:38 I came home from work early and found my wife in bed with Brian. This absolutely killed me inside. She was my world. She had betrayed me. We talked about it, and she told me about how he got into her head and manipulated her into doing what she did. Honestly, I believed her. She was very convincing. I took some time to get to know Brian, really get to know him.

Starting point is 00:03:13 I looked into who he was and put together a pretty good profile for him. I studied his mannerisms. He and I even went in together on a business venture. We decided we would purchase a refrigeration warehouse and start a cold storage business. Well, and that's what I let him believe anyways. I let him talk to the bankers and sellers. I watched as his charisma worked on them to lower the price and close the deal. Then came the day that we went and looked around the place alone.

Starting point is 00:03:51 The day that I hatched my plan. We were looking at a walk-in freezer together. I shut the door behind us. After a few moments, I pulled out a small handgun on Brian and shot him in his leg. He fell to the ground and screamed in pain. I just laughed and walked back toward the door. He screamed and asked what I was doing, and I told him I was leaving. You can't leave me here?

Starting point is 00:04:21 I'll freeze to death, he shouted. Oh, come on. Don't be an idiot, Brian. I retorted as I walked out and stared at him. Vampires can't freeze to death. I smiled as I shut and locked the door, two and a half foot of steel in the middle of nowhere, locking that jackass away for the rest of eternity. Last night, I dreamed I was at my own funeral.

Starting point is 00:05:00 I've been having this same dream almost every single night for the last year. It's such a surreal feeling, seeing the people you love mourn losing you. At the same time, it's also kind of nice knowing that these people care so much about my existence. Obviously, having this kind of dream would be mildly unsettling to most, but I see it as an opportunity to know that when things come to an end, people will actually care. As of late, though, there's been a disturbing part of the dream. I keep seeing this person that I don't recognize. He stands among my friends and family and just seems to loom for the entirety of the service.

Starting point is 00:05:49 For some reason, I cannot place a name to his face, but I can feel that something is off about him. The couple times I've seen him, he's always seemed to target someone in the crowd. He approaches them to console them. He seems so very gentle with them, but when I see his eyes, They seem to have a faint hue, a slight red glow as he stares at where I lie in my coffin. Now, I know most people would just say that it's nothing more than a dream, but I've watched him approach two people in this dream. Both people that he's approached have ended up getting into horrible accidents. One of them passed away.

Starting point is 00:06:37 The other will never walk or speak again. Now, I know it's just a dream, but how could it be a coincidence that the two people, the man approached in my dream, both ended up where they are? There's only so much that you can equate to random chance. Last night, I dreamed I was at my funeral again, and the man, he was there. He was there during the entirety of the service, and this time he did something different. He requested to give my eulogy. He stood in front of the entire crowd of people and spoke to them, comforting them, and telling them that I was in a better place. This morning, I received a call that my parents and my younger sister were hit by a drunk driver.

Starting point is 00:07:33 None of them survived. I saw a news report that there was a fire at a local college in the dorm where a number of of my friends stayed. My girlfriend's mother called me this morning to tell me she had taken her own life the night before.

Starting point is 00:07:53 All of them were gone, comforted by his words and lulled into the afterlife. Now, well now, I'm sitting here and waiting my turn. You see, at the end of

Starting point is 00:08:09 my dream, after the eulogy, he turned to look at my body in the coffin. He ran a hand through my hair and told me that everything would be okay. His words were comforting, and I felt calm as I watched his glowing red eyes pierce my soul. Now, what was the adage? Never work with children or animals? He hovered over me and chuckled. "'Hmner, my friend, working with children nets the best results, "'but animals are much easier to get nowadays.' "'His face twisted into a malicious grin. "'Then there are people like you that make my life even easier.

Starting point is 00:09:08 "'Not only are you in plentiful supply, "'the world really doesn't question the ethics of what I'm doing. "'What exactly are you doing? "'A suit in the corner with his arms, crossed was clearly not as amused with this whole scenario. The intent of this experiment is to remove the subject's memories so that only the most painful exist. The doctor continued hovering over me.

Starting point is 00:09:35 This subject is in prison for murdering his own daughter, quite a sickening act, even for the worst individual. I didn't murder her. I mumbled my words in a low tone. That's what you kept saying, yet here we are, the doctor grinned again. Regardless of our friend's lives, you will be witnessing the next step in criminal rehabilitation. Currently, we throw these evil individuals in a 10 by 10 cell and call it a day. In the near future, and today, we will instead implant tremendous mental and emotional pain into the subject for a

Starting point is 00:10:19 short amount of time in order to show them the errors of their actions. And how does this fix the prisoner? Another suit asked his question. Well, it's not dissimilar to pain compliance that is used when arresting a subject. The doctor looked up at them. Except by triggering this emotional pain, we can almost rewire the evil out of their brains and do so within hours or days, not decades. Please, please don't do this.

Starting point is 00:10:54 I begged in a whispered tone. Oh, I'm sorry, sir, but you were chosen to be the first subject. The doctor smirked down at me, and the first subject you shall be. It connected a device over my scalp and plugged various wires into each other. Now, there will be a slight sting. Once the connection is made, you won't feel anything, and your vision will go dark. That, it is completely normal, and you shouldn't worry about it.

Starting point is 00:11:28 Within a moment or two, the machine will get to work, digging into your memories and deciding via a very complex algorithm, which one will do the trick. Then, that memory will play in your head on repeat until the rehabilitation. is complete. As he finished the explanation, I could feel a slight pain in the back of my head. And how do we know when it's finished? One of the other men in the room asked the doctor. Hmm.

Starting point is 00:11:59 The machine will actually decide that. He reached over and grabbed his jacket. Until then, let's get lunch, gentlemen. I could faintly hear their feet shuffling as the room faded to black. Within seconds, I was back home, standing just outside my front door. I could feel my heart racing as I reached out and opened the door, only to find my daughter lying dead on the floor.

Starting point is 00:12:40 So that my lovely listeners was a collection of three short stories written by me. You guys may have heard some of these in other channels because some other people have narrated them, and that's perfectly fine. I'm all about that. I just wanted to get these on my channel, I'm pretty proud of them, honestly. Writing short stories is something I'm trying to do more often, and I know this video wasn't long.

Hopefully you guys enjoyed these. Like I said, these are originals, all by me, completely, 100%. Pretty good feedback on them from other people, so hopefully they're enjoyable. Yeah.
