The Wicked Library

Season 10 continues with another briny Batrachian tale as we take a dark dive into the deep.

Geoffrey Sykes Vermillion returns in another dark and mysterious adventure. This time, he visits his friend Gerald Marshall at his summer, seaside cottage when Gerald's nephew falls ill under strange circumstances.

This tale draws on the events told in "The Summer of the Amazing Mr. Fig", about a Deep One and his special friend, Clara Overton.

Season 10 continues with a wet and Wicked wild wade into the waves.

Nicola Hope is exhausted, tired, buggered even.

She spends most of her time sweating like a pig in the Horny Haggis kitchen, but now that she's done for the day, all she wants is to sit at the bar and guzzle down all the beer in the world - and maybe just maybe, if she's lucky enough, she might even score a little action.

It's always nice not to spend the night alone. But that all disintegrates like a politician’s promise when her mother texts. Mostly everything Nicola loves crumbles when Mammie touches them, and Mammie likes nothing more than touching the things that makes her daughter happy.

Set in Dreich, the same damp Scottish town as "The Nun's Cat", Myk Pilgrim's contribution to The Wicked Library's 13 Wicked Tales Anthology – “A Fish Doesn't Know” is about the terrible joy at seeing yourself as you are.

Season 10 continues with a fantastic tale by an author appearing on the show for the first time, Bram Stoker Award-winning author, Sara Tantlinger. This dark tale was written just for The Wicked Library.

In 1971, a test of the Emergency Broadcast System was sent the wrong code word, sending 40 minutes of confused panic across the airwaves. In Sara's story “Code word: HATEFULNESS”, we take a look at how such a thing could go terribly wrong for one listener.
