    The monster voices are my favorite parts in these stories. The BOOM the Depth the all powerful sounds. I love it

    First Pharoah: complains about doubters Me: Bruh, you like hid your pyramid in the shadow realm for like thousands of years, what did you expect?
  • Holy shit. How is this channel not more popular? Your sound design is astoundingly immersive and cinematic. You blow my mind every time. You’re my absolute favorite narration channel, no contest.

    Neferkahor was an actual pharaoh from the 1st intermediate period ( a period between the First Kingdom and the middle Kingdom). His name means 'perfect is the Ka of Horus' in egyptian (Nefer-ka-hor(us)). I don't know if the writer mean this as the pharaoh in his story or not. I know it's fiction, but I love ancient Egypt and am a sucker for knowing this stuff. Neferkahor was hardly the first pharaoh and while not too much is known about him, the Intermediate periods were periods of overall weakness in Egypt. As an example, the Hyksos rulers that kind of broke Egypt for awhile ruled during the Second Intermediate period and when they were expelled, Egypt saw a glorious rise again with the New Kingdom including the warrior pharaoh Thutmose III. The reason I say this is because I wanted to see how well it lined up with Ancient Egyptian timeline and Neferkahor was a real pharaoh, but not nearly a first pharaoh. That honor goes to Narmer (Menes). Now there is, in the second dynasty, a pharaoh named Neferkare (The Ka of Re(Ra) is beautiful (Nefer-ka-re)) but there was a whole dynasty before him and he wasn't even the first of his own dynasty. This also begs the question as to the name chosen by the author. Of all the cool names of Egyptian history, why a name associated so much with positivity? The guy doing the evil is named 'The Ka (spirit) of Horus (a good god) is Beautiful'? It could just be that the author liked the sound of the name and didn't do too much looking into meaning, or maybe he did. The writer could have gone with Peribsen (Hope of all Hearts (Per-ib-sen). Peribsen is an older pharaoh than Neferkahor (Second dynasty vs Eight) and is curious to scholars because his name, Seth-Peribsen, directly associates him with Set (Seth) the god that is normally associated with chaos, foreigners and evil rather than Horus or Ra as most other pharaohs associated with. In fact, in their myth Set and Horus fight over the throne after Set kills Osiris, the god-pharaoh, so it's curious to have a pharaoh that associated with Set. (Sidenote: Set in early Egypt wasn't as vilified as he would later become and other pharaohs did attach Set's name to themselves, but none went as hard in association as Peribsen from what I know). Cluefinders 4th grade used him and it is through finding his tomb that the god Set is unleashed on the world (this game was the gateway for me to fall in love with Ancient Egypt btw). So maybe Peribsen would have been a better choice? He's just as unknown in many regards, his name change is curious, his patron deity was unusual at best and evil at worst (again, Set being overtly evil came later but but Horus in the Second kingdom still was the usual choice for a pharaoh's patron), and not too much is known about his religious views. Either, way I would like to pick the author's brain about inspirations for the story and the decisions on which pharaoh name to use. Also, this reminds me very much of the story Lovecraft wrote for, with, and about Harry Houdini, `Under the Pyramids`. A story of Houdini escaping a cult trying to sacrifice him to something under the Pyramids while in Egypt (A giant sphinx creature). The two pharaohs in the story are the famous Khafre and the enigmatic Nitocris (mysterious because she doesn't exist in Egyptian records, only in greek records). Anyway, this comment's gotten away from me. Entertaining story! Edit: Typos

    This first pharaoh dude talks a big game but he ain't got much to show for it. He's all withered and gross. He has no civilization to rule just a bunch of dead dudes stuck in his magic pyramid that no one knows exists. He only has one servant. He trys to get the dude to be his new servant and he just up and leaves the country and all he can do it haunt his dreams like please come back man. 🤣

    Ok, this one convinced me. I've listened to others narrating this but your effects added an incredible flavour. After months of listening to you, you now have my sub.
  • @Happy-to3tf
    I wish I’d never found your channel. Now all the other creepypasta channels are impossible to listen to. Your narration is just too good.
  • @jking8938
    While everyone is saying how good of a narrator you are people are missing out on the sound effects those alone make the story way better and it makes you feel like your in the story and you can picture anyways keep up the good work and your narration and sound effects are amazing
  • That was amazing. Even managed to make me a bit uncomfortable at times. Well written and even better narrated.
  • @SomeStonedDude
    I meant to listen to this while falling asleep but it's literally impossible to sleep over finishing the story. Esspecially with the sound design. Wow.
  • @Eric-ff7mu
    You are by far my favourite narrator, the sound design used in the story’s are what really make it for me.
  • @camenvowode9171
    creepy ghost stories did this over a year ago, however your version is full of emotion and energy, which i prefer.
  • @Glass-Lemonade
    Watching during an active emergency. Seven spires is a great way to stave off existential dread.
  • You and the Mrs. Are just flat out two of the best narrators out there!! Both have such different styles. Hers seem to be more comforting, while yours convey the true emotions of panic and madness!! I can't say how impressed I am by your content, as well as your production values. You two are and will continue to dazzle!! Thank you!!
  • @kage8969
    Dude I am beyond amazed that you made this music, it is comparable to professionally made horror movie music. Just amazing!
