Fire gives life… but it also takes. It consumes, it transforms, and sometimes—when the flames die down—something unnatural is left smoldering in the ashes. Join Otis Jiry for a night of stories where heat lingers long after the embers fade and the past refuses to be buried. In tonight’s chilling tales, an unexplained fever burns hotter than it should, and a long-abandoned ruin may hold secrets that never truly died. Some fires can be extinguished. Others… never go out.
PODCAST SUMMARY
"Your Fever is My Fire" by Craig Groshek – Wracked by illness and barely able to move, a fever-stricken man finds himself visited by an unsettling stranger—an old man who seems far too interested in the heat radiating from his body. As the fever deepens, reality bends, and the sickroom transforms into a battleground between weakness and something far more insidious. A tale of sickness, strength, and the unseen forces that feed on human suffering, this story will make you think twice about what lurks in the haze of a high fever.
"We Broke Into Newbridge" by Craig Groshek – What starts as a reckless teenage dare leads three friends into the charred ruins of a long-abandoned boys’ home, a place whispered about in town but never revisited. The fire that consumed Newbridge decades ago left nothing behind—or so they thought. As they descend deeper into the remains, they uncover a place untouched by time and a presence that never left. A gripping and atmospheric descent into haunted history, this story reminds us that some doors are meant to stay closed.
