Welcome to The Wicked Library for our season of Sci-Fi Themed Horror.
Author: Hailey Piper
Storyteller: Mary Murphy
Host: Sadie Hartmann
Featuring a custom score by Nico Vettese, of We Talk of Dreams.
Story Summary:
A scientist in a secret government lab has devoted her career to studying vicious lifeforms that crashed onto Earth years ago. Having recently ended a long-term relationship and now feeling socially isolated from her colleagues, she can’t help projecting her loneliness onto the lab’s specimens. But is the connection really only in her head? Or does she have more in common with these violent creatures than she ever imagined?
Warning: The Wicked Library is a horror fiction podcast created for a mature audience. Our stories contain graphic descriptions of pain, murder, violence, blood, betrayal, and inhumanity; monsters win, people die, and hope is often shattered. There is also beauty, heart, catharsis, and raw emotion. Fear may be deeply personal, but we all share it.
If at any time a story takes you to a place too dark, turn on the lights, press pause, or press stop. And always remember, that unlike in the real world, these nightmares, and your participation in them, are under your control.
