The Westside Fairytales Podcast
We at the Westside Fairytales have written a story for you. Not you in that broad sense where you just means anybody, but you, Dear Listener. We know all about you. What makes you nervous, what sickens you, what keeps you from leaving your house sometimes for the maddening worry of it. And we’ve put it in a story. A story we’ll read for you.
Demons, desperate souls, and eldritch horrors… These strange and varied original tales will linger long after you've finished listening. The Westside Fairytales horror and dark fiction podcast is an award-winning audiodrama written, read, and produced by author Tyler Bell.
Seasons 1-4 contain a variety of short stories; Seasons 5 and 6 are novels broken into chapters. While each story can stand on its own, all take place in the extended Westside Fairytales universe, with continuing themes, characters, and connections. The Horror and Lit Club episodes are discussions, interviews, and reviews independent of the fiction episodes. Original art by Yui Breedlove.
