Soft spoken ASMR reading of Richard Bloch's The Secret in the Tomb. A soothing wind has been added in the background for ambience and to help you sleep. Listen with headphones for the best experience.


The Secret in the Tomb is a short story by Robert Bloch, first published in the May 1935 issue of *Weird Tales*. The story follows the last descendant of a family that has long sought the secret to eternal life, believed to be hidden in the tomb of their ancestor, Jeremy Strange. The protagonist, driven by a psychic calling, enters the tomb and discovers that Jeremy Strange is still alive, sustained by feeding on his descendants. The protagonist manages to break free from Strange's control and escapes, later destroying the tomb to end the curse.


It's a classic horror tale with themes of dark magic and the quest for immortality, reflecting Bloch's early influences from H.P. Lovecraft.

This video is intended for sleep. #sleepaid


As many of the larger channels noticed first, in November 2023, YouTube rolled out non-optional end-roll ads on all videos. Because this video is intended for you to relax and fall asleep, I’m hoping by adding this hashtag that YouTube becomes aware of the placement of ads on certain video types, like ASMR.


Video art and video animation are done by me using Canva Pro, Movavi, and Motionleap tools.
