    Bye bye
    Your voice and stories will be missed. Best of luck with the farming. ✌️
  • Zman2510
    Great podcast but please get rid of the spectrevision thing
    I love this podcast, but the spectrevision thing at the beginning and end of the episodes is ruining it. Please reconsider having that play
  • Dynamo2243423
    Still the best.
    Soren keeps churning out top notch material after all these years. Moonkeeper is the single best horror podcast episode of all time.
  • Gummy bear 🧸🎀
    Five stars
    Perfect amount of thrill
  • diana 1229
    where have you been
    i’ve been listening to scary podcasts for years, but had never run across this one. now that i have i can’t wait to listen to all of them. Soren’s voice is gentle and soothing which contrasts, yet adds to the creepiness of the stories. so glad i found you!
  • scott_dropnroll
    The gold standard of the genre
    This is the best horror podcast on the internet. 10/10.

    Bravo on this one and all of your work!

    PLEASE MAKE MORE IT’S BEEN SO LONG
    Hi I’ve been listening to your art for a long while now I’ve heard them all over and over and every time a new one is released it’s like Christmas to me. Thank you very very much- Samson T
  • Steve in Santa Rosa
    Thank you
    Soren, with “Crannies” you have returned to the intensity and power of your early podcasts that established you as the top horror podcaster, bar none

    Gotta love these narrations. Wish there was more and more!!!!!
  • Sam__30
    Can’t Get Enough
    When new episodes get released, it is a genuine pleasure.
  • disappointedanddumb
    Yes
    Love this!

    Too Sweat
    You are a master at what you do. On mind so many different stories. I will die if you ever write within a world built universe. Any chance you can write a story about a dude trapped in a bunker. I like those stories.
  • bngsc
    Perfect
    This is what a horror podcast should be like: No host ego, read beautifully, great musical/foley interjections, awesome stories. This is perfection.
  • Original is a MUST!!!
    The Best
    He’s one of the OG’s. I’m going to have to go back and listen to the oldest ones again. Please don’t quit!!
  • CallMeErnie or BigErn
    No one can touch this guy.
    Best horror podcast by a million miles. No one comes close.
  • Ashwenchan
    The best of the best
    This is the best horror podcast. Period. Soren’s narrative style and voice are smooth and soothing in direct contrast to the subject matter which is rich and thought provoking. These episodes often leave you with questions and tempt to you a second listen in which dark truths are drawn out. Topics span across all genres and from time to time, there are guest narrators. Some of these stories hit so effectively that when recalling them, you may believe you dreamed them. A macabre delight.
  • Fatty B Negative
    Simple and scary, and no commercials!
    I love this podcast for its slow developing eeriness and sense of foreboding, those heart pounding moments, and for its elegant simplicity. A huge factor for me is that Knifepoint is completely commercial-free! And no fluff in the beginning, just, “My name is…” and you’re in it! Commercials, especially in the middle of a spooky story, really kill it for me. I also don’t want abrupt scares, gratuitous descriptors of gore, or jarring sounds in my horrors podcasts. With Knifepoint, I prefer the most parred down episodes, with the single narrator and minimal sound effects, more than the ones with alternating dialogue and less-linear stories. But they’re all worth a listen!
  • hyrdcharli666
    The best
    I’ve been listening to Knife Point Horror for 5 or 6 years now. Multiple times I’ve gone back to the first episode and listened all the way through to the most current. I love these stories. I wish the episodes came out more frequently but I know it takes time to create work this good. Thank you Sorin and I hope the stories keep coming!
  • Maveric2333
    Fantastically done!
    The only thing that I feel could make this podcast better is for you to post more often
  • E. M. Grinter
    Thank you for this!
    Soren, thank you for bringing me back into the world of horror after a long hiatus. I’d slowly been turned off by the heavy handedness of gore and gruesome shock that is rampant in the genre. Your subtlety and competence in relaying the strange and unsettling is masterful.
  • Aswep
    !
    I’ve been enjoying since 2016 , thank you so much. Never expected, but always on time
  • RightFootRick
    Favorite of all time
    Happy to exist in the same timeline as this production. Thank you from Chicago.
  • rustyduncan
    Best horror podcast hands down
    After weeding through many others,these stories and their level-headed narration are the best that I've found.
  • Easy ATLien
    Top Tier Horror
    My name is Eric L. I have been a fan since early conception. I consume what some may consider a morbid amount of audio horror. I enjoy the nuances; when an author is able to gravitate their audience around the characters and environments they have constructed, seamlessly , it’s an art. Soren is a master at his craft and I applaud the dedication. All without ads. Truly one of the best !
  • K.G.Smith
    Top shelf horror
    Soren is truly one of the greats. I’ve been following this podcast for years and he consistently produces some of the best horror fiction around (in any format). Absolutely a must-listen!
  • MsDantie
    Exponentially impressive
    Good Grief!!!! I have never even enjoyed being scared before this podcast. #lifechanging #stepsisthetruth
  • Deathrag
    Crannies
    That was a good one. Thank you.
  • Gonshio
    Incredible
    I’d never found a podcast where every single episode is five stars until I discovered Knifepoint Horror. his delivery is perfect, the stories are well developed, and the creativity with which and narratives have been crafted is beyond measure. My only sadness is that there is not a new story every week.
  • Nicknamenicknamenickkkname
    Great show, except for…
    The main narrator has this infuriating habit of frequently speaking the last word of a sentence, only the last, in the faintest whisper, especially when he considers that part of the story especially spooky or impactful. Have you ever been aggravated to tears by the sound of someone slurping their drink, or chewing loudly, or vocal fry? This molests my ears in exactly the same way. Also it makes it very hard to hear what he’s saying. I love the stories and the narration otherwise but please for the love of god just speak with a consistent volume.
  • Lucifim
    Amazing
    The quality of stories are unmatched. I love the simple narration too.
  • m_inaway
    Nice.
    This is the only podcast that makes me feel weird, thus the only one that matters.
  • kathydepatta
    Doggo
    I really enjoy Knifepoint, but Doggo was just the best, thank you.
  • GarSlayer87
    Simply the Best
    Keep up the good work man I genuinely get excited when I see a new episode pop up.. hands down the best horror stories in podcast form
  • christopher stockhausen
    Love this
    Love and have loved since 2017. Soren Narnia holds a special place in my heart. Weird stories to lull you into an ambiguous hypnagogia.
  • RufusTFireflyFromOhio
    Endless horror invention and brilliance
    An utterly unique and work of art! His invention and ingenuity are positively endless. I have never failed to find myself surprised and shaken by the stories. The twists and turns are never predictable, they always go differently than my pedestrian imagination predicts. And they linger long after, fully blossoming in one’s memory. This is true deep horror, not all about sudden scares (though it has those too, moments where your blood will suddenly chill!), but more about tragedy — distilled and condensed— leaving you with a real sense of all that is terrifying, haunted, sad and mysterious in the world and in the human soul.
  • Testsubjectx
    Good for Spooky Sleeping
    I see people complaining about the narrator’s cadence, and I can understand what they mean, but skill issue, I guess. I’ve listened to every episode and every new one is an instant listen. One of my favorite horror podcasts.
  • Odd Nerd
    Excellent!
    Each new episode is a gift of intelligent writing, great stories & narration. It’s thrilling to see new ones appear and I can’t wait to open them. Thanks Soren!
  • UncleTude
    It all ends in a whisper…
    Seriously. Every sentence the guy utters ends in a whisper, makes it very hard to follow the story because it’s distracting. The cadence is verrrrry William Shatner in Star Trek….
  • MikellYamada
    Volume
    I love the stories but each sentence spoken by the narrator seems to descend into a difficult to hear whisper. The beginning of each line is spoken at a volume that’s easy to hear. About halfway through the narrator drops his voice to a low whisper. I realize this is probably by design. It’s just hard to keep turning the volume up and down throughout the story.
  • once upon a fan
    Soren is like a friend
    I check my feed at least once a week hoping for a new story from Knifepoint and whenever a new one goes up I devour it. Soren’s causal and understated style is like a friend telling me a story, I can see it and it always feels true
  • Mia Monster Mondays
    Been listening for years and still great
    Every time knifepoint posts, I know the story is going to be good. It’s always worth the wait.
  • mustardandmaymay
    Volume issues
    I appreciate this show for being ad-free and having great horror content. However, I use this podcast to fall asleep to and the volume differences in the narrator's voice make it difficult. He starts off most sentences loud and strong, but then tapers off at the end making it hard to understand what they said.

    Another Episode Another 5 Stars plus plus plus plus
    every time there’s a new episode that pops up here it’s like an early Christmas present
  • Kornmom5
    First class as always
    Sabbatical just dropped and it’s as great as all the rest. Mr. Narnia graces us with an episode it’s always a marvelous creepy listen. Thanks for providing us with these stories. I think it’s time to go back to the beginning and telisten to the lot for the third time. Highly recommended. KKN

    Audio
    Love the stories! But the heavily punctuated audio made the pace of listening difficult.
  • Helmets Every1
    Started from episode 1
    I’ve been listening to every episode for the last couple days. I forgot how much I love these stories. This being the first podcast I ever listened to,Fields being the first of many. Thank you for opening up a world of horror and keeping the genre unique and original. J. Bender
  • James111122
    Love it
    I absolutely love this show, it’s the only one I can’t wait for. Keep it up please😬
  • Cri mo
    Easily the best
    I listen to a lot of horror podcasts, but nothing comes close to Knifepoint. I love that we are just dropped into the story; no preamble, no signposting or self promotion. We’re just… there. The delivery was always spot on, but with the addition of more readers who are equally talented the podcast has taken on an eerily realistic documentary quality. And this is only amplified by the sound design, which is perfectly understated and never overproduced.
  • TacoBell2010
    One of the best out there!
    I’ve been a long time listener and love the show. I just finished Bots and wanted to tell you I loved it. I love all your work but that one was excellent. Keep it up!
