A 15th-anniversary NoSleep episode packed with five new horror tales
This preview is based only on the published show notes for NoSleep Podcast Season 24, Episode 20. The anniversary installment features five stories, multiple returning performers, and two entries flagged with trigger warnings, making it a substantial listen for fans of the show’s anthology format.
This is a preview based on the episode’s published notes, not a recap of the audio itself. Season 24, Episode 20 is framed as a celebration of **The NoSleep Podcast’s 15th Anniversary**, and the lineup suggests a full-length anthology showcase. The notes list **five stories** with start times, giving listeners a sense of the episode’s structure and pacing if they like to sample specific segments or plan a long listen. The featured stories are **“Listen Closely”** by Chris Hicks, **“Hole(d)”** by Garrett Atkinson, **“New Admission, Room Six”** by Arlo Vell, **“Return to Shiver Creek”** by Zalina Alvi, and **“Marnie and Kyle in the Quick ’n’ Now”** by Jason Washer. Two of those entries—**“Hole(d)”** and **“Marnie and Kyle in the Quick ’n’ Now”**—are explicitly marked with **trigger warnings** in the show notes, so listeners who prefer to check content advisories ahead of time may want to review the linked warning page. The metadata also highlights the episode’s ensemble nature, with a large cast that includes Sarah Ruth Thomas, Yenni Ann, Peter Lewis, Erin Lillis, Atticus Jackson, Dan Zappulla, Rima Mycynek, Graham Rowat, Mary Murphy, Nikolle Doolin, Wafiyyah White, Linsay Rousseau, Matthew Bradford, and others. Production duties are split across several familiar NoSleep contributors, with **David Cummings** as executive producer and host and **Brandon Boone** credited for the musical score. If you enjoy NoSleep for its variety, voice performances, and polished production, this anniversary episode looks like a strong pick based on the notes alone.
