"I Put On My Real Face" written by Scott Savino


In Season 1, Episode 2 of Scott Savino’s Series of Grave Mistakes, a woman receives an unmarked package containing the face she’s always wanted.


► Notice: Everything by Scott Savino contains disturbing or unsettling content. It is the opinion of the Voidspire Audio Archivists he does this knowingly and on purpose. Discretion is always advised. ⚠ S01E02 -- ContentWarnings


The mask fits better than expected—soft, warm, and uncannily natural—and wearing it makes moving through the world feel effortless in ways she never imagined. Strangers don’t stare. Conversations come easily. For the first time, she feels seen without feeling exposed.

But small details begin to feel… off. A comment made too casually. A look held a second too long. And the creeping sense that the mask isn’t just changing how others see her—but how she sees them.

What begins as a story about confidence and self-discovery slowly drifts into something far more unsettling, asking what it really means to have a “real” face—and whether authenticity is something you’re born with, or something you learn to wear.

This original short horror story blends psychological unease, identity horror, and subtle body horror into a quiet, creeping narrative where transformation doesn’t arrive all at once—and perhaps once you've put it on, taking the mask off might no longer be an option.

He's disoriented, alone, and shin-deep in a black, viscous current beneath a city he doesn’t remember. "The Light Beyond" written by Scott Savino


In the premiere episode of Scott Savino’s Series of Grave Mistakes, Season 1, Episode 1, a boy wakes in a dark sewer. He's disoriented, alone, and shin-deep in a black, viscous current beneath a city he doesn’t remember.


► Notice: Everything by Scott Savino contains disturbing or unsettling content. It is the opinion of the Voidspire Audio Archivists he does this knowingly and on purpose. Discretion is always advised. ⚠ S01E01 -- ContentWarnings


Ahead of him, a distant figure—a kid with a flashlight—moves through the tunnels with impossible speed, always just out of reach. As the boy follows, he begins to understand the sewers for what they truly are: the pulsing veins of something ancient that lives beneath the city... and he is not alone down there.

What begins as a desperate search for light becomes a recursive descent through identity, unreality, and something far worse than being lost.

This original short horror story blends cosmic horror, psychological dread, urban paranoia, and body horror into a narrative where every choice bleeds in only one direction.
