Introducing Fear: Dark Heights

REALM
About this episode

Welcome to your deepest FEAR! Since humanity first gathered around a campfire, we’ve been sharing stories to freak each other out and spark the darker side of our imaginations. From the mysterious to the macabre, the supernatural to the supremely bizarre, our FEAR feed features similarly shocking tales, with new episodes dropping weekly, presented by Pun Bandhu.


At Realm, the joy of feeling creepy-crawlies tingle up your spine is never out of season, and our always-on chronicles of the ghostly, ghastly, grotesque and everything in between are sure to haunt your every step. So, keep that nightlight on, one eye open, and your head on a swivel because nowhere is safe when you’re immersed in FEAR.


This month, we’re featuring Dark Heights. A small California town—and three people within it—become the targets of an ancient evil.


Tess Bellamy’s return home is anything but triumphant. She’s decided Hollywood isn’t for her, resigned to a normal life of caring for her ailing mother. Linna Severand would be a powerful sorceress...if she could escape her family’s mansion, and usurp their control of her magic. Gabriel Majeaux once tried to save the world from evil. Now he’s the last of his kind, moving from place to place to avoid detection.


After a series of horrifying events, their lives collide...and if they aren’t prepared, it’s unlikely they’ll survive.
