S12E21 - "Down the Road" - Horror Hill

Horror Hill: A Horror Anthology and Scary Stories Series Podcast

In this triple-feature episode of Horror Hill, acclaimed author Jesse Pullins invites you to take the scenic route through a landscape where reality frays at the edges, and something ancient waits just beyond the next bend. Whether it’s a lonely drive through the dark woods, a nostalgic joyride that veers into nightmare, or a house visit that turns out to be anything but routine, each tale leads further from the familiar—and closer to something terrifying. So buckle up, keep your eyes on the road, and whatever you do... don’t stop.

"Watch for Deer" by Jesse Pullins – Fresh off his first shift at a new job, a young man makes the long drive home through a remote wooded backroad. But when a sudden encounter on the dark highway leaves him shaken, he begins to suspect that not everything in the forest is as it seems. With the night growing colder and stranger by the minute, he’ll have to confront something far older—and more deliberate—than any wild animal. A haunting meditation on guilt, nature, and unseen forces, this story will change the way you see the roadside forever.

"Neon Nightmare" by Jesse Pullins – Warren and his friend Rodger are riding high—literally—as they cruise the desert in an ’85 Corvette, amped on designer drugs and 1980s nostalgia. But their euphoric road trip begins to fracture when something starts following them: a shadow that speaks in whispers and leaves black stains in its wake. What begins as a psychedelic joyride soon becomes a violent sprint through a dreamscape where nothing is what it seems. Equal parts surreal and savage, this is a high-octane tale of escape, addiction, and the horrors that hitch a ride in our minds.

"My Last House Blessing" by Jesse Pullins – Father Cain has made a living pretending to cleanse haunted homes—his robes, rosary, and “holy water” all just part of the act. But when he takes a new gig in a remote Victorian house, he finds himself facing more than just creaky floors and nervous homeowners. What was supposed to be a simple grift turns into a descent into something primal, ritualistic, and deeply wrong. A layered tale of deception and consequence, this story peels back the curtain on the horrors that can’t be faked.
