Summary

A young wife and mother - new to this town and to its secrets - learns just how much she doesn’t know in this tingly tale of all the things hiding in the dark at the top of the stairs, from bestselling author Brandi Reeds.

While renovating her Victorian home, Ana Clementine finds an ornate door buried under forty years of earth. Once she restores it to the attic, she starts hearing whispers, her loving husband has become a stranger, and her baby daughter learns a chilling new word. Maybe Ana has unlocked the house’s secrets. Or maybe she’s becoming just a little unhinged herself.

Brandi Reeds’s Oak Avenue is part of Dark Corners, a collection of seven heart-stopping short stories by bestselling authors who give you so many new reasons to be afraid. Each story can be read in a single sitting. Or, if you have the nerve, you can listen all by yourself in the dark.

interesting

the reading was terrible at the beginning so robotic it improved a bit later but still had bits of that enerving tone. the story is good yet it could have been explored deeper.

Great story, horrible narrator

I liked the story. It’s spoilt by the narrator though - she has a weird almost robotic voice - at first it sounded like a computer-generated voice. Then when she puts on a voice for male characters it gets even worse - sounds like someone putting on a voice to pretend they are really dumb and slow.

Can't listen, awful narration

As most reviews say, I agree, I thought it was an AI initially, it's read so robotic sounding.

Due to the bad narration I can't tell you if the stories are good or not.

A shame

Good story but.......

This is a good story but the narrator*s voice is a bit dodgy in bits.

I really enjoyed this story.

I enjoyed this story and the narration didn't district from it. It was very easy to listen too, I would like to have heard more.

Ok - not the best but not terrible either!

Mixed review. Just as I was getting in to it,it finished 20 mins later haha. It was ok but felt the ending was rushed somewhat. Thought the narrator for better about half way thru. Glad I didn't waste a credit on it. Three stars for my liking

story ok but poor narration

This was a traditional move into a haunted house ghost story. it was easy listening but I did feel that the back story of the ghost could have been more in depth. the only thing that spoiled it was the narrator. I found her voice most strange and monotonous and the characterisation most odd.

Narrated by a bot

Impossible to listen to this story as it doesn’t sound like it is read by a human. The author deserves a formal apology. If this isn’t performed by an AI then the producer needs to be sacked because the story is borderline unintelligible.
