About this audiobook

A young Jamaican girl’s wish is granted by the town Obeah, but the cost is unimaginably high.

"Mama Tulu" by Jessica Guess is one of 18 short horror stories in Nightfire's audio anthology. Come Join Us by the Fire Season 2 is the second installment of Nightfire's audio horror anthology, featuring a wide collection of short stories from emerging voices in the horror genre as well as longtime fan favorites. The collection showcases the breadth of talent writing in the horror genre today, with contributions from a wide range of genre luminaries like Seanan McGuire, T. Kingfisher, and Caitlín R. Kiernan; it includes stories from Nightfire’s own Cassandra Khaw (Nothing But Blackened Teeth) and Silvia Moreno-Garcia (Certain Dark Things); and from rising stars like Nibedita Sen, Matthew Lyons, and Jessica Guess. Plus, it has Nick Antosca’s “The Quiet Boy,” soon to be a major motion picture, Antlers, starring Keri Russell.

Reminds me of the time in 1978 when I passed the house of a supposed Obeah woman on Nevis while walking in the countryside to visit a friend's godmother. On the way up we were peeking at her garden and house, on the way back after listening to tales where we visited we rushed past.

okay, The dad is abusive towards the mom and a acholic got into some trouble left the state to go back to their home town. He dies from the bloodline of the child and is turned over to this woman to be her slave. Do the mom and daughter go back to the states.? I see the background for it, but what's the purpose truly if you'll still be doing the same thing. Is he bound just to the house. Will others be able to see him or just her cause of the blood line.?. Great audio
