In today’s haunting episode, "Portrait of the Dead", we dive into the chilling world of an artist with a dark obsession. His ability to capture the likeness of the recently deceased is unmatched, but his talent comes with a terrible price. With each portrait he completes, the spirits of the dead return—trapped, unable to move on. As he tries to outrun the growing demands of the restless souls, he realizes his art may have cursed him forever.
Perfect for fans of gothic horror, ghostly hauntings, and unsettling tales, "Portrait of the Dead" is a terrifying exploration of art, obsession, and the price of tampering with the afterlife. Tune in to 13 Tales of Halloween for more eerie, supernatural stories that will keep you up at night!
