Tonight’s story follows a team of seven explorers who descend into an uncharted cavern system deep beneath the earth. What begins as a routine expedition soon spirals into something far darker when they uncover ancient carvings warning of a presence known only as The Jackal.
As the group ventures deeper, strange markings, whispers in the dark, and the growing sense that they’re being watched turn curiosity into terror. By the time one of their own vanishes, the surviving explorers realize the cave isn’t just old… it’s alive, and it’s been waiting for them.
Today’s tale of terror is ‘The Cave’, a story credited to Archfeared, kindly shared with me via the Creepypasta Wiki and read here under the conditions of the CC-BY-SA license.

Other music used is credited to the wonderful The Dark Somnium (intro) and the fantastic Tanner Stokes (end credits). The music is used here with their express permission.
Video footage was either made by me with whatever Go Pro Camera it is that I own, or created with Vivago... I hope you found it to be a relaxing backdrop for today’s story!
