So I think he killer her when he found out about her cheating (maybe) or betraying him and the woman in his dreams was Helen right before her death and she was clutching his phone, for a year he kept getting these dreams because of the presence of those memories in his subconscious mind but his mind had covered the traumatic incidents by making him forget them. He maybe rented the cabin in the woods to get rid of her,and drove there once in a while and that is why everything was familiar to him. The car tracks outside the house were his,and the liquid in the fridge might be the chloroform with which he had gagged her. OR he got retrograde amnesia after hitting the car,due to which events of the past few months of her betrayal and murder by him were erased from his memory and he only remembered the last few days before he found out about her cheating. OR he died in the accident and hence forgot some details of his life,like killing her,but if he were dead why would he feel the cold of the snow? Dead people can't feel as far as I know. Anywayyyy, I enjoyed listening to this story very much. Good story and great narration! :)
Thank you so much for posting this. I'm recovering from eye surgery and am having a little trouble reading for extended periods of time, so I went in search of an audio short story. The story is well written and held my interest. The narration is equally good -- the pauses being just as important as the spoken words. You have a very descriptive writing style. I was easy to visualize the scenes thanks to your attention to detail. Very well done! Thank you!
This is a great piece of work. .........It truly sufficed my desire for an appropriate kind of short story. ..and you really have a story telling voice which has a sense of calmness. ..Please keep up the good work
Thank you kindly! ^^ This was honestly always intended as a kind of a one shot project/experiment, since my channel is mostly about games and such, but I'm not ruling out the possibility of me doing more of these :)
I just listened it while work(repetitive work). I didn't knew it had this much meaning. I thought what the holy hell is going on dream dream and dream.
This reminds me of a Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde story but I know it's not even remotely the same. I absolutely love this, and you have great narrating voice!
Wow I enjoyed it very much, liked that you left the story with an open ending, it increases chances of different interpretations from different reader / listener. You should write often and narrate it (You have a great narration voice) so we can enjoy :) Great work! 👏
This video is like a spooky history lesson wrapped in a fascinating mystery! Love how 101 Ghost Stories explores the unexplained, and the Antikythera Mechanism is definitely unexplained. Can't wait to see what other historical oddities you tackle next!
Didn't realize this was a piece by a developing writer. Please accept my apologies if you've read my earlier comments, which I've since deleted. Thought this was something mainstream and to hold you to that standard is unfair. I felt the amnesiac main character and the twist was unoriginal - that was it in a nutshell, in case you're wondering. Delivery is half the battle anyway
I enjoyed this.please keep writing and reading. Your voice is actually really soothing and relaxing. And I was enjoying it sooo much. And then, it ended.
Not a bad job. I personally prefer a more coherent story, but for what you seem to have been aiming for, you did well. One suggestion: At 21:56 you say, "Now everything made sense, but ..." As others have pointed out, the pieces of the puzzle do not come clearly together for some of us. I would like this line better if it read, "Now everything made sense, ... yet nothing made sense." Or perhaps, "... yet nothing made any sense at all." Keep it up!
Thanks for the constructive criticism! ^^ And yeah that's a fair point. While writing that line, I tried to convey that everything made sense to the character himself, but in hindsight I should've written "Now everything made sense to him" :D Non-native english speaker and all that, so mistakes are sure to happen. At the time of writing I was pretty worried that the story would seem too obvious, my idea was to make a psychological thriller that depicts what happened in a way that leaves room for the reader to interpret it in different ways. I've been avoiding explicitly explaining everything in the comments, because I'm worried that might upset people who like to hold their own interpretation of this as the truth ^^
WOOHOO 🎉 really enjoyed this amazing 📖 the narration was awesome 😎 So hhge Thank You 😊 from a very happy bunny 🐰 Keep em coming please huge fan of both author and narrator KAZ 😊🌟🎉🥀💖🌷🌟🎉🥀💖🌷🌟🎉🥀💖🌷🌟🎉🥀💖🌷🌟🎉🥀💖🌷🌟🎉🥀💖🌷🌟😘🥀
Good story, good narrating. I really enjoy it 😊. I'm not quite understand about two thing. 1) why he still have his phone on his apartment after year of his ex murder? 2) how the black crumbled piece of paper get there?
Thank you for the compliments! ^^ About the phone, the markings on the phone were made over a year ago, but the murder itself is much more recent. Very recent in fact. Beyond that, it's just his phone with some markings on it, so he hasn't changed his phone in a year's time. The blank crumbled paper is something that is intended to be an unclear and strange event where Conrad has to ask himself "was he going insane?", so it's up to interpretation whether the paper was ever real, whether Conrad crumpled it during a minor blackout or in his sleep or whether he made a false memory of folding it neatly.
Haunting! Good illustrations through your words, and your voice has a pleasing tone... Can't place the accent...Thank you! I'll subscribe from Bothell Washington. And Bigfoot says hello 😎
Thank you so much for the sub and for the positive feedback! :) My accent is likely a strange and jumbled mess of everything I've heard from TV, movies, the internet and so on with some base tonal remnants of my native tongue, which is one of the rarer ones in the world, so I would be amazed if anyone could guess my origin from that x) I'm from Finland :D
I feel like I have to be a bit careful while answering, because I hear that good stories are meant to be somewhat up for interpretation, that every reader, or in this case listener, can form their own ideas on what exactly happened. With that said, I of course want to help anyone interested to understand the story better. The exact reason for why his phone is in her hand I leave unexplained, perhaps she took the phone when he didn't notice while they were at the cabin, perhaps he left the phone in the freezer to taunt her or maybe he left it there as a twisted relic to rid himself of all memories of her. As for what overall happened... at the moment of him walking away from the car crash, the car is facing away from the direction of the cabin. He also distinctly recognizes the smell of the strange liquid in the fridge. Those things coupled with the fact that she had his phone suggest strongly that Conrad was at the cabin and had been driving away from there before the crash. The story also mentions at the end that "he knew what he had done", which in this tragic story was nothing good... he just couldn't remember doing so. I hope that helps! ^^
I am a student and budding movie maker. I would like to make a short film based on this story in my university. Can I go ahead? I would love to mention your name and give appropriate credits
I'm not sure what that fully means, as I want to be careful to not fully relinquish the rights to use my story to make profit, but if you mean a non-profit movie or such, I would be absolutely happy and honored to allow such a work of art be created as long as I'm just credited as the creator of the short story it was based on. And I'd love to see the result if at all possible 🙂If you need to hash out any further details feel free to contact me over DM's on my instagram at instagram.com/kriostyx/
Conrad has killed his lover and put the body in the freezer. I'm not sure of the sequence of events, but she has his phone, which makes him remember what he has done. Upon leaving the farmhouse, he realizes what he has done and decides to end his life by succumbing to the elements (freezing to death). That's my understanding. If anyone has a different interpretation, I'd love to know.
This was one of the first things I ever voice recorded close to 8 years ago by now, trying very hard to maintain a.... let's say a "narrator voice" with not too much emoting or other elements so it would be easy to listen to. The end result is pretty much what an inexperienced narrator would end up with but it is really me. You might recognize some of the voice vibes from my other super early let's play videos and such. It's honestly slightly bumming me out that people in about the last year have started commenting that it is AI, now when AI is common. 8 years ago AI voice was..... not this. Not even close :D Try to keep that in mind as well. And it took a lot of work to get this together back then as it sure wasn't exactly a one-and-done type of take :D
I'm really sorry I shouldn't have said it , I wasn't sure, AI voices are getting better so it's harder to tell. l didn't mean to upset you I know what's it like to feel crappy and I'm sorry xx
As I mentioned to another commenter, I feel like always have to be real careful when answering questions like "what happened?" because I hear good stories are supposed to be up for interpretation, that every listener can form their own ideas of what happened :D If you feel like him being dead all along fits the story, then I don't want to take that away from you at all. However, as I've mentioned in the comments, there are three key facts that suggest strongly that he had been in the cabin. His car was facing away from the cabin when he woke up in it, he recognized the smell of the strange liquid in the fridge, and his phone was in the freezer. Also at the end the story mentions that "he knew what he had done". That is a strong implication that he had done something bad. I hope that helps! ^^
I have guns but when it comes to the street, I'm an up close and personal type. Blades are my friends, silent, and SUPER effective. Guns are for home defense and hunting friend.
Todd Bertram things are so different here in Uk ... there ARE guns but few and far between, it’s just too damn easy to get angry and pull a trigger.... knives are a big issue here, all young lads seem to carry them. I think our prisons would be overwhelmed if we had guns here. However I do worry about apocalypse or something 😂!!!!
@@whenfishesflew people dont have self control these days. I have guys but they live at home unless I think I need one for a certain situation. People are afraid to just throw hands these days and have a good old street fight. Too much pride these days, kids aren't willing to lose a fight so they pull a piece.
Todd Bertram I never thought of that but you’re right there! It’s fear of losing! It used to be ok to lose ... now kids get prizes for taking part in something at school for example! You’re spot-on there.
So I think he killer her when he found out about her cheating (maybe) or betraying him and the woman in his dreams was Helen right before her death and she was clutching his phone, for a year he kept getting these dreams because of the presence of those memories in his subconscious mind but his mind had covered the traumatic incidents by making him forget them.

So well read! Thank you for this upload.
Tremendous work 👍👍
HI check our stories 😊
This is great, well done!
Check our stories 😊
I love dreaming
Nicely read, but I saw that ending coming from the first minute.
Maybe I might sound dumb, but can anybody explain me the ending?
May be describe it in private message? I am not able to exactly get the idea.
Thanks.

Dude u r way too gud....... sorry fr the copyright but i would like to narrate this in front of my college.....if its ok wid uh
I would be honored if you narrated this at your college! :) I only ask that you mention me as the original author ^^
Kriostyx of course I would. ....I don't like stealing..don't worry

That's good to hear! Thank you and all the best to you and I'm glad people enjoyed the story! :)
Just listening now , i think the narrator sounds like an AI voice or is just me ?!

I’m not too sure what happened, did he kill her? Was he dead all along and reliving his dream?

Not sure this is read that well as I found it hard to concentrate.. Or perhaps too tired
I've used this story many times to sleep
It works
I'm listening to this story for the ????? Idk ..I'm in love with this story 💕
Didnt like the very end
From some words I can hear that english is not your mother tongue. Am I wrong when assuming you’re from a nordic eurooean country?
You are 100% correct on that :D Finland.
Kriostyx Joo vähän veikkasinki! :D
Can someone plz explain the story! !!! I'm dying to understand!
Give me ur no I will explain the story well to your curiosity
Have you ever not have any better ranater?
I didn't get this 🥲
How is from ans
Sorry couldn't listen to the story. The reader was so bland.
I'm sorry, but, the monotone, monotonous ramble had me full of distaste within minutes. Good luck with this in the future
what a stupid way to start a story ' wheres the introduction ' to confused to fast ' skipped
This story sounds like it was written by a two year old.
At least reading through ANY author 101 is asked too much for some people.
No bueno
Sucks. Next.
Wrong.
Worse story ever. Sorry, voice irritated me too!
I don't think this kind of stuff is for people like you, Crazy Cat Lady.
Very boring 😴
The reader has done a poor job.
Ruby González The reader is clearly not native english speaker..
Lame, not worth the listen.
Todd Bertram no guns ?! 😂
