    New FAVORITE!!!
    ❤️ this podcast !! The Best stories and the narrator has definitely found his niche.. Seriously the perfect voice for story telling !!
  • Sexy beast123333335555
    Title of podcast reminds me of ‘nocturnal emissions’
    Lol.
  • RhodesyB
    Highly Enjoyable+
    Update: the more I listen, the more sure I am that Kristin Holland is a vocal genius. He makes voice acting a true art form. And I still miss a Voice from Darkness. Great mix of old and new tales. Exceptional voices in each, thanks to Kristin Holland. My only critique would be that I do find myself wishing for the return of A Voice from Darkness.

    Ponderous Garbage
    I'm a huge fan of horror podcasts and have listened to hundreds or thousands of hours of them. I saw this one and thought I'd give it a try. I tried to make it through a more recent episode, The Different Face and just couldn't take any more of the trite, unoriginal, and slow pace crap. I may give it another chance, but it'll be a while before I'm willing to forgive the waste of my time.
  • MGP Terps
    One of the best
    Created, written, produced, performed and available podcasts EVER!
  • Cypresswyvern
    Love this
    It’s like listening in a crypt. Like old school radio and the Crypt Keeper on a dreary Hallows Eve night. Most enjoyable. The emotion the narrator expresses is worth every second, Thank you Kristin Holland! You’re the best
  • JbLedge
    Some stories are a little complex but…
    Overall it’s a great podcast. Love all the spooky stories:)
  • With his original
    I listened
    I listened to the first two episodes, liked the stories and the style so I followed the show. Now none of the episodes will play? Please help
  • Flguy1971
    Phenomenal show
    This is the most enjoyable, well produced and thoroughly entertaining podcast that I have had the pleasure to find! My commute daily is up 90 minutes twice a day, mainly on dark scary roads. This is the perfect companion. My sincere appreciate on a great job!
  • QBee13
    It’s way better than reading!
    I feel strongly about boycotting non-fiction as adults. I literally close my eyes and see the words, typed. Great job—thank you for doing the reading😀
  • elimee23
    Fantastic!!!
    I adore this podcast. Kristin’s voice is perfect for horror stories, and the mix of old and new always makes for interesting listening!
  • Piper Lauderdale
    Best Narration! Great Stories!
    This is hands-down my favorite horror fiction podcast. I wish it was updated more frequently. I’ve listened to all of these stories at least twice. Kristin Holland has a very dynamic and versatile voice that really gives me chills.
  • Natalie Thompson
    Great stories!
    One of my favorite horror podcasts because of the quality of the stories and the narration. Excellent!
  • Loganfool
    Unavailable
    That’s what I am when it comes to paying for this. Why would I wanna pay for something that I can’t hear a sample of? Pretty bad management if you ask me.

    Pure perfect darkness
    Listening to this podcast helps to keep me up at night , and in the day, waiting for the next bit of terror.
  • cfawv
    Just discovered this gem!
    Can’t get enough of this. Staying up all night binging on these fantastic stories. Thank goodness I’m retired :)

    Addicted
    This podcast is so addicting!!! Mr. Holland is such an amazing narrator. His amazing narration skills bring the horror stories to life!
  • Moonshade
    Phenomenal
    I cannot speak highly enough of Kristin Holland's voice work. As good as the stories are--and they are very good--Kristin's storytelling raises them to another level.
  • bcbax
    One of the best
    Fantastic.
  • crimson Window
    One of the best horror podcasts
    One of the best horror podcasts out there for a gentle listener…..
  • Spocknroll
    GOAT horror anthology
    It honestly doesn’t get better: stories, narrator, production are all top notch. I listen to a lot (maybe too many?) of podcasts, and while there are a ton of good ones out there, this is a great one. If you like well-told stories that send a tingle down your spine and linger after the telling - not to mention an incredibly bingeable, lengthy trove of episodes to dive into - you’re in the right place.
  • Notsoflynhayn
    Amazing
    Never miss a episode and always replay these episodes. The voice actor and everyone else that makes this podcast happen I would like to say thank you for bringing the best every time you post a new episode. Hope you do this as long as possible. Really appreciate good content
  • Mordrake lives
    Horrifically good podcast.
    I love the style and narration, great for bringing these terrifying tales to life!
  • hutch7470
    Exceptional podcast
    One of my favorite podcasts, very well done
  • Sir Gurr
    Best Narrator in the business
    I listen to several different well known genre fiction podcasts, but Nocturnal Transmissions’s narrator is hands down the most skilled of any podcaster you will ever hear!!! Truly a treasure!! Do yourself a favour and listen to this podcast on a dark and stormy night!!
  • the red paladon
    Love it
    Love this one kinda bummed about the voice from darkness podcast it was awesome too
  • MiKrumm
    One of my favorite horror podcasts.
    I just recently started listening to this podcast. Typically I don’t like gore in horror films. But for some reason I really enjoy dark gore filled tales as podcast and many of their episodes are just that. The narrator is fantastic. If you like scary stories you’ll probably like this series.
  • Dizzyliz777
    Well this is a bummer
    I really wanted to hear The Wedigo but I have to pay monthly. I’m too broke to donate .
  • Lumberjack Bear
    the absolute best horror narration/performance
    The only thing Kristin Holland is 'ripping to shreds ' is the competition. Like the saying goes,'If it's too loud ..you must be too old'
  • Astrodog67
    Tone it down
    Sometimes there’s a good story that the narrator rips to shreds with his lunatic-fringe style of reading. Calm down, man. Screaming at the top of your lungs for 80% of a story isn’t necessary.
  • Deargceann
    Original horror stories are top notch
    I would give a 5, but it annoys me when podcasts use old stories as filler.
  • BookHangovers
    The BEST Horror Podcast!
    I’m fairly new at this whole Podcast thing. A friend recommended that I check out these Horror Podcasts, since I’m a huge reader of Horror Fiction & that I love listening to Horror audiobooks. She thought I’d enjoy them and she wasn’t wrong. It was a bit overwhelming, at first, because there’s so many of these Horror Story podcasts. So, it did take me a good minute to find ones that suited me best. This podcast is hands down my favorite! When it comes to story telling the narrator plays a crucial part in the success of that story. That’s why this podcast is my favorite. The narrator is just phenomenal at what he does. Another thing reason I love it so much is because of the stories told. I just started listening to this podcast and already I’ve heard stories by some of my favorite authors: J.A. Konrath & Lovecraft. I can’t wait to listen to them all. Please, never stop sharing these kickass Horror stories.
  • JesscuhhTM
    Hypnotizing.
    I am a big fan of horror story podcasts and Nocturnal Transmissions is starting to become one of my favorites. Kristin Holland is a FANTASTIC narrator with an absolutely hypnotizing voice. Highly recommend!
  • Teaser0703
    Awesome
    I love this show and love the voice over. I listen to it year round. -MelO. Finances the Other “F” Word
  • Sugar Creager
    Excellent Story Telling
    This is the first podcast that I have became a patrian. I truly love listening to your stories in a true ‘turn off the lights and listen’ experience. No fluff, no nonsense, just a hypnotizing voice and wonderful stories. I look forward to many more!
  • notYOURaverageMOM
    LOVE LOVE F$&king love it
    The stories are amazing, the performance is amazing!!! I started with a voice from darkness and we no new episodes and I get all extra Parton stories listen to in a day. So now I got some more stories to listen to, cuz I love the deep raspy voice to put me to sleep or keep me awake. I’m happy either way!!! Keep up the great work!!!
  • senior squeaky-pants
    Love it!
    These are great. Spooky and very well produced.
  • AJLFX
    THIS is the horror podcast you’ve been seeking!
    These are performances by a master at the top of his craft, and they deserve industry recognition; with well-earned hyperbolic reviews such as these and creative financial support. If you are searching for good, solid, original stories, the occasional masterpieces and classics, all exceptionally performed, they’re here, or surely - uh - bound to be. Hit the subscribe button now, give the show five stars, and drop the man some coin for his labors. I stumbled across this podcast by pure luck, and while in Covid-19 quarantine, I listened to every.single.episode in a single week. FYI, that was three years of his work, for which I did pay, because he bloody well deserved it for such fantastic craftsmanship. I am listening to his performances on other shows now, because I am a newly minted fan as I write this. Kristin Holland is a phenomenal voice actor, and this show is just THAT good. His intro/outro character voice is every bit as ICONIC as John Kassir’s “Crypt keeper” from HBO’s “Tales from the Crypt.” It’s not a fair comparison because these are two VERY different performers, with very different responsibilities, in separate mediums, with wildly divergent resources dictating how the work was...executed. The “Narrator” (glad he has no name) is such a specific character voice you can *instantly* see this character in your mind. I honestly have played episodes on repeat because I find The Narrator and his “other” voices, soothing to listen to; despite the nature of the content. Kristin does all the voices, and at times, it’s staggering to consider it’s the same individual. Truly. Outstanding. The show is very well edited, with high quality vocal sound, and the occasional ambient sound effects sprinkled in here and there. In a creatively just world, this show would get a full ambisonic sound mix - because it deserves it. It could easily be an amazing anthology streamer. However, such an extra digital treat is minor when offset against such superlative skill and talent. Be kind. Share. Pay up. I know you will enjoy these shows as much as I did, Gentle Listener... A+ —> one of best, if not *the best* in the business right now.
  • Jennapizz
    Wow! What a storyteller!
    Truly an A+ podcast for anyone looking for extremely well narrated horror stories. This guys got talent that is truly captivating.. well done !
  • alinmyhead
    Need more
    I just binge listened to voice of darkness and had to find more again awesomeness
  • Aaron Vlek
    Excellent!
    Among the top tier of the best horror podcasts around. Intriguing highly literate stories that never fail to throw the unexpected curve ball and avoid the easy trap of the typical Reddit and rehashed Creepypasta fare. Bravo!
  • Picsnappelejax
    Excellent Anthology
    Chilling and thought-provoking, this series explores all genres of horror, with excellent production quality and marvelous voice acting. Pulling from various writers and styles, this podcast is limited by nothing save the boundaries of darkness and horror. It explores subjects ranging from the tangible, terrible strength of the instinct to survive, to the metaphysical, unknowable void outside our physical reality. It explores a godless, hopeless world, brings to life the monsters therein, and drags its listeners into the shadows of the human mind and its most maddening imaginings. I highly recommend for anyone that would like to have their mind expanded into the abyss, and their heart topped off with chilled and foreign blood.
  • Artemis16
    Amazing horror podcast!!!
    This is the best horror podcast I’ve listened to! Kristin Holland is amazing! He brings just the right amount of drama and creep factor to each story. I also like that there isn’t any unnecessary background noise/music so as to not distract from the story and acting.
