Each episode of The Lantern Anthology is a self-contained tale drawn from a fictional collection of lost and forbidden literature — forgotten folklore, abandoned manuscripts, letters never sent. The stories wander through isolated farmhouses at dusk, towns swallowed by forest, and roads that appear only on maps no one remembers drawing. Some whisper of bargains made with creatures beneath the floorboards; others speak of inheritances that should have been refused. There is no single arc, only the quiet certainty that the next story might be the one that follows you home. Luna's voice is a low, unhurried presence, as if she knows you are listening in the dark. Settle in. The lamp is lit, and the pages are turning. #TheLanternAnthology #LanternStories #AtmosphericHorror #FolkloreHorror #ForgottenTales #LostLiterature #CandlelitHorror #IsolatedHorror #RuralDread #StorybookHorror #NarratedHorror #FictionalFolklore #AbandonedPlaces #MidnightReading #CreepyTales #Horror #HorrorPodcast #StorytellingHorror Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.co…","last_synced_at":"2026-07-30T08:18:15.159395+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-lantern-anthology-fexingo-horror-7868468"},"episode":{"title":"The Night the Paving Crew Found the Black Stone Under Old Mill Road","slug":"the-night-the-paving-crew-found-the-black-stone-under-old-mill-road","published_at":"2026-06-30T16:25:54+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-lantern-anthology-fexingo-horror-7868468/the-night-the-paving-crew-found-the-black-stone-under-old-mill-road","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-lantern-anthology-fexingo-horror-7868468","url":"https://audio.fexingo.com/horror/the-lantern-anthology/episode-0057.mp3","audio_url":"https://audio.fexingo.com/horror/the-lantern-anthology/episode-0057.mp3","summary":"October of '94, a county paving crew outside Marlin, Kansas hit something granite-hard under ten inches of asphalt. What they uncovered wasn't rock — it was a slab of black stone, perfectly smooth, warm to the touch, engraved with letters no one could read. The foreman, a man named Hoyt, made them keep working. But by midnight the stone had grown warmer, and the letters had changed. Luna tells the story of that night — of how the crew finished the road, how the seal held, and how every year since, the cracks return in the same shape. An episode about roads, and what they're built over, and the slow patience of things that lie beneath. #BlackStone #OldMillRoad #MarlinKansas #CountyPavingCrew #HoytForeman #LettersNoOneCouldRead #WarmStone #WhatLiesBeneath #RoadClosed #October1994 #CracksInTheAsphalt #SlowPatience #HorrorStory #HorrorPodcast #FexingoHorror #TheLanternAnthology #LunaNarrates #AnthologyHorror Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo","meta_description":"October of '94, a county paving crew outside Marlin, Kansas hit something granite-hard under ten inches of asphalt.
