The guy who wrote the first story must have gotten a thesaurus for christmas... thats a lot of 100 dollar words packed in there.

[stevenward]

That first story’s hilarious misuse of a thesaurus gets me every time. Just use a simple word that actually means what you want to say instead of trying to win at story time scrabble 😂

[thaddeusodonnell]

To the first writer..when you try really hard to sound smart..it sounds dumb. And the story didn't even end with a sensical conclusion..just left you confused.

[mistrjt]

That first story…… _The tempestuous storm clouds refine sunlight of the setting daystar through themselves tinting the cumulus bodies of brilliant azure with my sagacious grandfather…_ 🤨

I would have been fine with “I was staring at the sun and my Pop Pop smacked me and told me to stop.” If I misinterpreted that fancy sentence then idk wtf he said. 😆

[fiafia]

First story...I learned a lot of BIG new words.
Second..I’m still scratching my head trying to figure out what happened.

[corriemcginnis]

The first guy went overboard with the thesaurus I think

[cativamusereacts]

The first sounded like an English teacher said "write a story but use as many of the biggest, most unused words you can" 😂😂😂

[littlehellspawn]

The first story sure had alot of fancy words in it. Kinda took me out of the story with how out of place it felt, lmao.

[lp]

The first story is SO bad-- why is it first? So overstuffed with unnecessary, unusual words that I have no idea what happened. Sure wasn't scary-- hard to imagine this was one of the best stories of the year!

[sparrowman]

Great stories to close out the year! That first story, though, seemed like a high schooler forcing complex vocabulary through their word processor for the first time….

[tarapennock]

Yes! Love these! Can we also get some goatman n more skinwalker or wendigo stories?

[billysellers]

I had to skip the first story. It was like an English teacher made a whole bunch of schoolchildren write a short story and had to use big words as part of the assignment. Lmao.

[Stormworks_maker_of_things]

I love the cyptid/skinwalker stories, thanks swamp

[daneekitty]

These are my absolute favorite genre of spoken narrated stories in fact i search every corner of youtube for this specific content so THANK YOU for fitting my very picky favorites

[lizzymint]

Why did you repost this? The first story is such crap and everyone complained about it the first time you posted that video

[laurenmortimer]

I’ve got all the love in the world for this channel I’m an og listener but I’m not sure what I think of the finger snapping when he mis says something. I fall into a deep relaxation whilst imagining the story and sometimes even fall asleep and the finger clicking is waking me up 😂

[nee_username]

That first story... did the author fill out a horror themed mad lib?

("The beast was tantalizing us..." lol)

[manuelromero]

That first story sounds like it was written by a 13 year old who just got his new vocabulary list at school and was dying to use it

[hiraeth]

the first guy is trying so hard to be smart 💀

[SignalFireProject]

I felt like whoever wrote the first story binge read Lovecraft but it was still an interesting story for the most part haha
