Scary stories read as if you were peeking into someone else's chat.
Gwaedam Talk is an app that plays horror stories in a chat format. The conversation between two people flows as if in real-time, and the unanswered silence, the lingering "Unread 1," and the sudden disconnection complete the story. It gives you the feeling of being inside that chat room that night, rather than just reading text.
■ Stories Like These
· A photo of a black box posted in a family group chat (5-episode full-length)
· A deep mountain village with rules, and a phone call received at dawn (6-episode full-length)
· Messages from non-existent numbers, sounds from downstairs, the fourth attendee at the first drinking party after graduation…
· 82 stories ranging from one-off short stories to 9-episode full-length stories; new stories are continuously being added.
· Ghost stories that have been circulating on the internet for a long time have been adapted into a chat format with official permission.
