Growing Things and Other Stories Audiobook (Free)

A chilling collection of psychological suspense and literary horror from your multiple award-winning author of the national bestseller The Cabin by the end of the Globe and A Head Full of Ghosts.

A masterful anthology featuring nineteen bits of brief fiction, Developing Things and Additional Stories is an exciting glance into Paul Tremblay’s fantastically fertile imagination.

In “The Instructor,” a Bram Stoker Award nominee for best short story, students is forced to view a disturbing video that about Developing Things and Additional Tales will haunt and torment her and her classmates’ lives.

Four men rob a pawn shop at gunpoint and then vanish, one-by-one, as they speed away from the crime scene in “The Getaway.”

In “Swim Wants to Know WHETHER IT’S as Bad as Swim Thinks,” a meth addict kidnaps her daughter from her estranged mom as their town is terrorized by a giant monster . or not.

Joining these haunting functions are stories linked to Tremblay’s previous novels. The tour de drive metafictional novella “Records from your dog Walkers” deconstructs horror and publishing, possibly attracting a character from A Head Full of Spirits, all while providing like a prequel to Disappearance at Devil’s Rock and roll. “The Thirteenth Temple” comes after another personality from A Head Full of Ghosts-Merry, that has released a tell-all memoir written years following the events from the novel. And the title story, “Developing Points,” a shivery story loosely shared between your sisters within a Head Full of Ghosts, is told here in complete.

From global catastrophe to the demons within our heads, Tremblay illuminates our primal worries and darkest dreams in startlingly original fiction that leaves us unmoored. As he lowers the sky and yanks the ground from beneath our foot, we are compelled to contemplate the darkness within our own hearts and thoughts.
