  • Summary

  • Welcome to The Westside Fairytales Podcast


    Demons, desperate souls, and eldritch horrors…


    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.


    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. New episodes are released every month and can be found at westsidefairytales.com, or wherever you listen to podcasts.


    The first 4 seasons are comprised of a variety of short stories. Seasons 5 and 6 each are a season-long novel broken into episodic chapters. While each story can stand on its own, all content takes place in the extended Westside Fairytales universe, with continuing themes, characters, and connections.


    The Horror and Lit Club episodes are discussions, interviews, and reviews that are separate from the regular fiction episodes.

    We're now more than halfway through the off-season, and new episodes of Westside Fairytales are just around the corner. Today's minisode is just a trifle. A snatch of memory. The creeping sort of horror that walks with you for a while even after you've said goodbye.

    Ever felt stuck in a rut? Today's episode of the Westside Fairytales is about a woman who feels trapped in a life she never expected to live. Her husband doesn't appreciate her. She doesn't have any hobbies, any friends, or really any social interaction aside from her children.


    But an old friend has stopped by to help her break out of this funk. Somebody from her childhood that always shows up when she needs him.

amazing stories and a great author

I've loved all the stories. Tyler, the author and narrator, does a great job! The stories aren't campfire stories, they are more akin to episodes of the twilight zone.
