The Frequency: A Short Story
Some voices never stop broadcasting.
Sam Porter hosts The Frequency, a midnight radio show for insomniacs, wanderers, and the quietly haunted. Cynical and detached, he fills the graveyard shift with sarcasm, static, and callers who believe in far more than he does.
Until one night, a mysterious caller breaks through the signal—describing Sam’s studio in eerie detail… and remembering things Sam has spent years trying to forget.
As the voice grows more familiar, Sam is pulled into a slow-burn psychological unraveling that blurs the line between radio waves, memory, and the ghosts we carry. Is he speaking to a stranger, a spirit, or the echo of a mistake he never made peace with?
The Frequency is literary psychological fiction at its quietest and most devastating—an emotional story about grief, forgiveness, and the echoes that live inside silence. With subtle magical realism and atmospheric tension, this story explores what happens when the living finally stop talking and learn to listen.
For fans of introspective first-person storytelling, haunting but gentle supernatural fiction, and novels about unseen connections—this is a story that lingers like a whisper long after the final chapter.
N.B. This is a short story told from a first-person point of view.
