TWL 1119: “Butane Sally and the Swamp God of Sinkhole”, by Sebastian Bendix
Welcome to The Wicked Library for our season of Sci-Fi Themed Horror.
Author: Sebastian Bendix
Storyteller: Sarah Ruth Thomas
Host: Daniel Foytik
Featuring a custom score by Nico Vettese, of We Talk of Dreams.
Story Summary:
In a savage and lawless future, human tribes must protect themselves from the mutated wildlife that encroaches upon them on every side. When her entire tribe falls ill due to spore poisoning, teenage Sally must venture into the treacherous Sinkhole Swamp to retrieve the last known flower that can cure them. Armed with only a flammable tank of butane gas, Sally must face deadly monsters at every turn, as well as the legendary mutant god said to hold sway over the swamp.
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.
