    Bizarre Horror Stories: Weird Accounts of Swamp Monsters, Yowies, Trolls & Other Strange Creatures , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 76min
    Weird Accounts of Swamp Monsters, Yowies, Trolls, and Other Strange Creatures. There are horror stories, and then there are bizarre horror stories. The kind that really makes you scratch your head after reading them, and inspire you to utter the poignantly plaintive refrain, "What the hell was that all about?" These stories of trolls, leprechauns, and robot aliens serve to remind us that the realm of the unknown is not just scary, it is often downright bizarre. Just consider the tale of the family beset upon by a strange gnome-like entity in Southern California. There is no apparent rhyme or reason as to why these strange creatures may enter into our lives, but when they do, the ball is in their court, and they deliver their bizarre narrative strictly on their own terms. We didn't know that hidden realms of microbes, bacteria and viruses existed in direct concert with our daily life, until we invented the microscope. Perhaps something similar could be said about these bizarre intrusions as well. Perhaps there is some as of yet, hidden dimension from which the unimaginable occasionally emerges. Just as man broke down the barrier that separated us from viewing the microscopic world, maybe someday we will invent a means of breaking through to this reality as well. Until then, we will just have to enjoy the hair raising accounts of those who have been lucky (or unlucky) enough to bump into these other worldly denizens, resulting in some of the most bizarre horror stories you have ever heard. Here is a preview of what's inside. The Real Meaning of "Trolling" Mass Migration of the Chupacabra Discourse on Skunk Apes and Swamp Slobs Killer Yard Gnome Terrorizes Family Attacked by a Pack of Werewolves Encounters with Extraterrestrial Robots And much, much more! ungekürzt.

    Dirty John and Other True Stories of Outlaws and Outsiders , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 491min
    A collection of newspaper stories by award-winning Los Angeles Times reporter Christopher Goffard - including “Dirty John”, the basis for the hit podcast and the upcoming Bravo scripted series starring Connie Britton and Eric Bana.Since its release in fall 2017, the Dirty John podcast - about a con man who terrorizes a Southern California family - has been downloaded more than 20 million times and will soon premiere as a scripted drama on Bravo starring Connie Britton and Eric Bana. The story, which also ran as a print series in the Los Angeles Times, wasn’t unfamiliar terrain to its writer, Christopher Goffard. Over two decades at newspapers from Florida to California, Goffard has reported probingly on the shadowy, unseen corners of society. This audiobook gathers together for the first time “Dirty John” and the rest of his very best work.“The $40 Lawyer” provides an inside account of a young public defender’s rookie year in the legal trenches. “Framed” offers an unblinking chronicle of suburban mayhem (and is currently being developed by Netflix as a film starring Julia Roberts). A man wrongly imprisoned for rape, train-riding runaways in love, a Syrian mother forced to leave her children in order to save them, a boy who grows up to become a cop as a way of honoring his murdered sister, another boy who struggles with the knowledge that his father is on death row: These stories reveal the complexities of human nature, showing people at both their most courageous and their most villainous.Goffard shared in the Los Angeles Times’ Pulitzer Prize for Public Service in 2011 and has twice been a Pulitzer finalist for feature writing. This collection - a must-listen for fans of both true-crime and first-rate narrative non-fiction - underscores his reputation as one of today’s most original journalistic voices.  ungekürzt.

    The Beasts of Electra Drive , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 717min
    From Hollywood Hills mansions and Century City towers, to South Central motels and the oceanside refinery, The Beasts of Electra Drive, by Rohan Quine, spans a mythic LA, following seven spectacular characters (or Beasts) from games designer Jaymi’s game worlds. The intensity of those Beasts’ creation cycles leads to their release into real life in seemingly human forms and to their combative protection of him from destructive rivals at mainstream company Bang Dead Games. Grand spaces of beauty interlock with narrow rooms of terror, both in the real world and in the incorporeal world of cyberspace. A prequel to Quine’s other five tales, The Beasts of Electra Drive is a unique explosion of glamour and beauty, horror and enchantment, exploring the mechanisms and magic of creativity itself.Jaymi is an independent games designer living on Electra Drive in the Hollywood Hills. Opposed to him are his former colleagues at Bang Dead Games. Their mounting competitiveness regarding his own extravagant game creation reaches a point where they attack him physically with a flying drone.Bang Dead is preparing the global release of a game called Ain’tTheyFreaky!, centering on five tabloid-flavored social media “Newsfeeds” for the victimization of certain people by others - the “Gal Score”, “Guy Score”, “Trivia Score”, “Arts Score” and “Cozy Score”. Jaymi decides to fight back, for self-protection and to counteract this game’s destructive effects.He takes an irrevocable step: After creating Amber, the most dangerous of the characters (or Beasts, as he calls them) who will populate Jaymi’s project The Platinum Raven, he releases Amber from that game, such that Amber slithers out of Jaymi’s computer monitor. Appearing human, this now-incarnated Beast is sent to stalk Ain’tTheyFreaky!’s creators in real life - Dud, Kelly, Ashley, and Herb.While Amber terrorizes them, Jaymi creates a second Beast, Evelyn, from his ungekürzt.

    The Thuggee: The History of the Thugs, the World’s First Organized Gang of Professional Assassins , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 87min
    “In the reign of that sultan [about 1290], some Thugs were taken in Delhi, and a man belonging to that fraternity was the means of about a thousand being captured. But not one of these did the sultan have killed. He gave orders for them to be put into boats and to be conveyed into the lower country, to the neighbourhood of Lakhnauti, where they were to be set free. The Thugs would thus have to dwell about Lakhnauti and would not trouble the neighbourhood of Delhi any more.” (Sir H.M. Elliot, History of India) To most people, the typical “thug” in this day and age lurks on a shadowy street corner, toting ready-to-sell packets of “product”, and is more often than not, packing a glinting, unlicensed pistol under his shirt. One might even describe the bully that relentlessly terrorizes peers they deem weaker as such, or perhaps a young hoodlum that ventures out in the dead of the night, tagging their initials or the insignia of their “crew” on public property, and pursuing other kinds of petty mischief. Thugs, a term used interchangeably with “gangsters” at times, are hardcore outlaws of the street, and like most criminals, tend to find strength in numbers. Thugs who have claimed hold on a certain territory are known to harass unfortunate passersby, usually walking down dimly-lit alleys unaccompanied. The most organized syndicates target vulnerable small, family-owned businesses, some so formidably powerful they hold even local authorities hostage under their thumbs. As it turns out, the Thuggee, the group that influenced this now controversial word, is far more fascinating than one might have imagined. The Thuggee: The History of the Thugs, the World’s First Organized Gang of Professional Assassins explores both the etiological myth and origin story of this prolific cult of murderous bandits, and takes an in-depth look into its practices and their ultimate demise. You will learn about the thugs like never before. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jim D. Johnston. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/107762/bk_acx0_107762_sample.mp3.

    BDSM Bedtime Stories: Five BDSM Erotica Stories: Alexandra Noir's BDSM Bedtime Erotica, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 249min, (USK 18)
    Alexandra Noir writes what she lives. She's a therapist by day and devoted kinkster by night. She's committed not merely to letting you into her wild imagination but to give you a window into the intense feelings and intimacy that occur in real BDSM relationships.In BDSM Bedtime Stories, you get five kinky stories about male dominance and female submission. For some of the women in these stories, submitting to a man is what they've always wanted. For others, they didn't know they needed it until it was already happening. No matter they ended up at their masters' feet, it is where they belong. In A Dom in Shining Armor, Liz expects a little drama out of life, especially since she owns an adult toy shop. However, being harassed by someone whose brother is on the town's corrupt police force makes her life a living hell...until Erik appears.

After a few questions and a lot of chemistry, Erik vows to stop the corruption and privately usher in a much more spicy atmosphere. Her relief at having a man protect her is shocking to this independent business woman, but it's nothing compared to how she'll feel when he starts claiming her as his own. In Taming the Bitch Boss, Nina has quite the cold, hard bitch reputation and proudly terrorizes her small team of sales reps. On the job, she looks forward to manipulating, but nights have become boring. Thoughts of luring meek males leads to her creation of a fake profile on a popular kink site.
