It’s October, which means a couple of things: The weather is a little colder, everything is suddenly Pumpkin Spice-flavored and most importantly, it’s “Spooky Season. So in addition to our normal science fiction stories, this month we’re sharing some classic horror tales by Edgar Allen Poe to keep you up all night.

For Spooky Season this week we have "The Tell Tale Heart" by Edgar Allen Poe

This week’s story is “The Beast of Boredom” by Richard R Smith. We all find ourselves wishing we had more time, but in this story we learn that it can be more of a curse than a blessing.

This week’s story is The Troubled Atlas, an original story by Sander Wess. In it we meet a scientist in the midst of an accident in space who must make an impossible decision: risk everything to save another crewmember or ensure the survival of the few who remain. With time running out, he prepares to undertake a desperate rescue mission through the compromised corridors of the ship, knowing that even a slight misstep could doom them all.

This week’s story is “Amateur in Chancery” by George O. Smith. If someone’s life depended on it, could you explain the concept of right and left to someone who had tentacles and had never heard of either?

This week, we have an original story that was submitted to Auditory Anthology called ”It’s About Time” by DH Parish, which is a little like the movie Invasion of the Body Snatchers, except the pod people do odds and ends for the community.

This week’s story is “Security Risk” by Ed M Clinton Jr. Over the years I’ve heard a few people say that if there’s a task you don’t want to do, do it once really badly and no one will ever ask you again. Here we learn that if there’s a fight you really don’t want to get involved in, all you have to do is make both sides think they can’t trust you.
