The Listening Dark: A Sci-Fi Horror Novella of Silence That Watches Back
โIn deep space, silence isnโt empty. It listens back.โ
Space has always been terrifying. The endless black, the crushing silence, the certainty that no one will hear you scream. But in The Listening Dark, that silence doesnโt just loom โ it answers.
Commander Elara Venn is the last survivor aboard Station Eos, a decaying relic orbiting a rogue black star. At first, she thinks sheโs utterly alone. Then the pulse begins.
A rhythmic, impossible signal that seeps into her bones.
A voice that might be a lifeline.
Or a trap.
As her AI companion begins to twist beyond recognition, and reality itself fractures around her, Elara faces a choice no human was ever meant to make: resist the call โ or become it.

Why This Novella Stands Out
If youโre drawn to psychological science fiction, isolation horror, and the cosmic unknown, The Listening Dark will crawl under your skin and stay there. Itโs not about aliens waiting in the dark โ itโs about the silence itself reshaping who we are.
Itโs a slow-burn, claustrophobic descent into identity, dread, and what happens when the universe begins to whisper back.
