On Wednesday I got to see the popular podcast Lore live! It was a night of scary stories and spine-chilling tales that were hair-raising. Though I cannot tell any of the stories I can tell you the experience.
Seeing this podcast (which is one of my personal favorites) was an unbelievable experience. Having Aaron Mahnke right in front of me was incredible and the way he dramatized the actions gave the stories extra flair. Having piano legend Chad Lawson there also added to the suspense of the stories, but nothing compared to how great it was to meet them.
After the show I got to meet the great men behind this spine-chilling podcast. They were very friendly and very happy to take a photo with my dad and I. They also signed a photo of Mahnke that was very detailed. To meet these two wonderful people was an unforgettable experience.
Though a spine-tickling podcast might not seem inspirational to you, to me it is. After listening to my first couple of episodes I knew that horror was going to be something big for me. I first wrote a report about one of the episodes, presented to my class and it was a huge success. Then I was inspired to write my own horror story that was inspired by things I have seen and heard. I later turned it in to my teacher and I was surprised to see how high of a score I got. Writing has really changed me.
Seeing the this podcast live was an awesome experience that couldn’t have happened if it weren’t for my dad. Without him this blog and a lot that I write about would not be possible without him. Thanks Dad!
