I blame Vect.
This is why you never release your Haemonculus into the wild when it gets too big.
When I first read this I somehow forgot what sort of book I was reading and had the actual thought "Oh I hope she find her husband OK"
Can’t blame you. I’d actually pay, for a happy end to these kinds of stories.
Yeah but that is our humanity talking this is the grim dark future 😅
@@elijahhayter3026"happy," doesnt really mesh well with "Grim Dark."
I'm thinking of picking up a few 40k books to read during the incoming brutal Winter. It should fit the hollow bleakness of Winter lol. Anyways what's some good books to start reading. Never read any b4. I have been listening to a lot of lore so I do know the different races and story lines somewhat.
@@mikehunt4797Warhammer 40k? The best starters for getting into the books are usually the Eisenhorn series or Gaunts Ghosts.

If you want some good xenos lore, check out the necron books for sure

This story feels like it would make a killer side quest in an RPG. Imagine you come across a woman begging for someone to help find her husband. You question her and she invites you into your home where you meet her kids and she tells you her story and about her husband. You then track down the clues of where he went and track him to the “don’t go here because it’s evil ” place. When you enter you fight a few enemies and eventually go into a building where a demon awaits you and gives you a similar deal to this story but also gives you a list of names and tells you to bring one to get the husband back. You’re then left with a few choices
A. Kill the demon- this choice will have you battle the demon and when defeating him make you return to the wife where she breaks down crying because she will never see her husband again. Later you might find out that her house is foreclosed and no one has seen the family though the answer is likely not good.
B. Corpse- this one would be like the ending to this story where the first name of the list is already dead, so by bringing this corpse the family will get a corpse in return. The wife is happy (if not also broken) but clearly this is not good for the family.
C. Bed ridden- the third choice is a man who is heavily injured and bed ridden but alive and will live years to come. Doing this will bring the husband back but in a similar state to the man where you learn the family is together but life is very difficult for them and the family will probably resort to bad means to make money.
D. Bad father- this ending could be if you took a man similar to the scrap merchant alive to the demon. The father returns but this is not the man the wife described. He is abusive, probably drinks a lot, and overall a bad person. But again the wife is desperate so she keeps making excuses about his behavior and lost in her own world.
E. Good father- this last one would see you find the last name on the list is a perfectly healthy man who has his whole life ahead of him big dreams, probably also a girlfriend he wants to marry soon, and a good job lined up for him. Take him to the demon though and the husband will return healthy and completely fine like nothing has changed. Going back to the family you will probably learn they are happy and life is genuinely getting better for them… but somewhere else you could find a woman crying alone and you learn she was the girlfriend of the man you technically got killed and how life for her is going to be hell because of your actions.
Or having just one ending where your character reacts just like her in this video, giving you an uncanny feeling for the rest of the game.
Pretty cool Quest scenario.
Ending E could be made more messed up as it's now the girlfriend of the sacrficed man, asking someone to help find her lost lover, thus repeating the cycle once more.
This is actually kinda a sidequest in BG3
@@NosferatuWickedTTRPG i just finished tht quest

It's probably the closest thing we can get to a happy ending in the grim dark.

its sad, but you are correct
I disagree, and suspect you kinda missed the point of the story a little bit.
@@leovalenzuela8368 explain
Wes: Sometimes when you have a bad habit
*Warhammer Collection looms in the background*
Also Wes: Sometimes you need a good habit.
maybe I'm just numb to horror but I'd say this story is more a heartbreaking tragedy than a horror story
Very much
The horror is in Marceline's acceptance.
A tragic ending would have been if she realized that it was a bad trade and destroyed the corpse of her husband. Husbandless and handless, with a rough future ahead, but better than what now sits in her home and refuses to let her children go.
If she was well versed in chaos and how it operates, then she could have gotten Cole back exactly as she remember him...... but... the price would have been much MUCH higher.
For a start she should have created a black tontine (chaos legal document), that way the assessors (Lawyers/Judges of chaos) would have scared the skin man into doing what he promised, assuming the tontine was worded correctly.
As for the pricing, I would assume something along the lines of a handsome man for the body, a smart man for the mind, and her children for his soul, +13 others for the assessors.
With this said, she would have had to been one hell of a sorcerer to know about all this stuff, and in all due likelihood wouldn't be living paycheck to paycheck so non of this would be necessary. :P
Really dont hink that thing is a capable deamon to be able to bring back Cole as she remembers him, i dont hink it actually keeps the souls of those he consumes, and given the hostile enviroment i also doubt it was actually Coles killer. That flesh puppet was probably the best it could do, hell it probably is only like 70% cole, the rest of his remains that werent taken were eaten already by the time she arrives.
You know what? As far as 40k goes, that is a pretty happy ending. Marcelene, you go girl.
The chilling part to me is that even if she lured the other guy alive to the skin man, there would still be desterbing parts about him. Good read good story
what does this even mean
@@serfaIshe would get him back but hes already dead, so it would be a puppeted version of him.
Like a skilled actor playing the part of her husband instead of her husband.
@@serfaI It's warhammer, so the sky is the limit. But I like the idea that Cole would inherit some of the traits of the merchant. Definitely alive, but also a giant asshole.
Technically she held up her end of the bargain without actually committing murder. That was self-defense.
Self defense requires equal response, If you kill someone with a knife in a fistfight you will be under scrutiny since you brought a knife into a fistfight. So technically, you would lose with that defense, unless you can prove the guy in question could kill you with only his fists, and he is intended to kill you. Which would be hard to prove.
PS: TECHNICALLY, I am right, you are wrong, F. U, STOP BOTHERING ME!
Here is what actual lawyers say about this:
Self-Defense Law: Overview
By FindLaw Staff | Legally reviewed by Melissa Bender, Esq. | Last reviewed August 15, 2023
Legally Reviewed
This article has been written and reviewed for legal accuracy, clarity, and style by FindLaw’s team of legal writers and attorneys and in accordance with our editorial standards.
Fact-Checked
It is a widely accepted principle that a person has the legal right to self-defense and the defense of others. This is also true when that defense would normally amount to a crime. Self-defense is an affirmative defense. Each state allows a defendant to claim self-defense as a legal defense when accused of a violent crime, such as a murder charge. Federal criminal law allows this as well.
The specific laws on self-defense cases vary from state to state. Some states have stand-your-ground laws, while others do not. This article addresses the broad concepts of self-defense law in the U.S. You should check the laws of your state to understand the requirements for a claim of self-defense.
What Is Self-Defense?
Self-defense is using force or violence to protect oneself, or a third person, from imminent harm. In other words, the victim reasonably believes they are in immediate danger of imminent death, bodily injury, or serious bodily harm. This definition may seem simple enough, but it raises many questions when someone uses it in real life.
Courts struggle with determining an appropriate level of force or violence when a person defends themselves. In reviews of what is such appropriate levels of violence, courts often consider the following:
What if the victim of a violent crime provoked the attack?
Did the perpetrator threaten the use of deadly force or non-deadly force?
Was the victim obligated to retreat from the violence or threat of imminent force?
Did the victim have a reasonable belief or reasonable fear that the use of force against them was imminent?
Did the victim use reasonable force in response to the attack?
What protection exists for victims who feel, on reasonable grounds, that a threat exists when it does not?
Self-defense law is more complicated than it first appears. To handle the many circumstances under which self-defense occurs, states have created rules to determine when self-defense is allowed. These rules also decide how much force a victim can use to protect themselves.
Is the Threat Imminent?
Generally, self-defense only justifies using force in response to an imminent threat. For a threat to be imminent, it must be certain to occur. Such a threat can be made with words as long as it puts the intended victim in a reasonable and immediate fear of physical harm or serious bodily injury. Without such a threat, offensive words do not justify the use of force in self-defense.
Consider the following scenario for an example of such a situation. A jealous ex-lover confronts his former girlfriend and shouts, "I'm going to kill you!" He brandishes a knife and steps forward. In this case, the victim would be within her rights to defend herself because a reasonable person would fear physical harm. So, if she had pepper spray in her purse, she's justified in using it to fend off her angry ex-lover. Had he approached her and said, "We need to talk," she would not be legally justified in using the pepper spray in self-defense.
The use of force in self-defense loses justification once the threat has ended. For example, if an aggressor assaults a victim but then stops doing so and indicates that there is no longer any threat of violence, the threat of danger has ended. Any use of force by the victim against the perpetrator at that point is retaliatory and not self-defense.
Consider the following scenario. Two players in a basketball game argue over a foul call until one punches the other in the face. After delivering the punch, the player quits the game and leaves the gym. A few hours later, the two players coincidentally encounter each other in the grocery store. At this point, the original confrontation is over. Absent a new attack or imminent threat of harm, the punched player would not be legally justified in punching the player who hit him earlier. Under this circumstance, the use of force is retaliatory and not self-defense.
Was the Fear of Harm Reasonable?
Self-defense is legally justified even if the perceived aggressor did not mean the perceived victim any harm. What matters in these situations is whether a "reasonable person" in the same situation would have perceived an immediate threat of physical harm.
Under the legal concept of the "reasonable person," legal systems decide whether a person's feelings and experience of imminent danger justify the use of force as a response to a threat.
Imagine two strangers walking past each other in a city park. A bee is buzzing around the head of one of the two people. The other person sees this. Being friendly, the other person reaches quickly to try to swat the bee away from the bee's soon-to-be victim. The person with the bee by their head, only seeing a stranger's hand move quickly toward their face, might understandably slap the other person's hand away violently.
In other circumstances, the slap would amount to a textbook assault. But a court could easily find that the sudden movement of a stranger's hand toward a person's face would cause a reasonable person to conclude that they were in danger of immediate physical harm. This would likely render the use of force a justifiable exercise of the right to self-defense. It would not matter that the perceived attacker meant no harm and was, in fact, actually trying to help.
Imperfect Self-Defense
Sometimes, a person may genuinely fear imminent physical harm that is not objectively reasonable. If that person uses force to defend themselves from the perceived threat, the legal situation is "imperfect self-defense."
Imperfect self-defense does not excuse a person from the crime but can lessen the charges and penalties involved. But not every state recognizes imperfect self-defense as a reason to lessen a sentence.
For example, a student is studying at a coffee shop when a classmate arrives and walks toward the student. The classmate balls up his fist in anticipation of a friendly "fist-bump" greeting. The student genuinely fears that their classmate is preparing to punch them, even though this fear is unreasonable. In reaction to the perceived threat, the student flings his coffee cup at the classmate's face and scrambles away. While the student's claim of self-defense would not excuse any criminal charge for assault, it could reduce the severity of the charges. The student's self-defense claim is imperfect because of the unreasonable nature of how he perceived a threat.
Some states also consider instances where the person claiming self-defense provoked the attack as imperfect self-defense. For example, if a person creates a violent conflict, then unintentionally kills the other party while defending themselves, a claim of self-defense might reduce the charges or punishment. But the defense would not excuse the killing entirely.
Proportional Response
Self-defense law requires the response to match the threat level in question. In other words, a person can only use as much force as required to remove the threat. If the threat involves deadly force, the person defending themselves can use deadly force to counteract the threat. If the threat involves only minor force and the person claiming self-defense uses force that could cause grievous bodily harm or death, their claim of self-defense will fail.
Duty to Retreat
The original laws about self-defense required people claiming self-defense first to attempt to avoid violence before using force. This is also known as a "duty to retreat." While most states have removed this rule for instances involving non-deadly force, many states still require the person to attempt to escape the situation before applying deadly force. It's important to know the laws of your local jurisdiction to decide whether this duty is required.
Stand Your Ground
In contrast to the duty to retreat, many states have enacted so-called "stand your ground" laws. These laws remove the duty to retreat and allow for a claim of self-defense even if the person making the claim did nothing to flee from the threat of violence.
Today, this is the more common rule when situations involve nonlethal force. But states differ on whether the "stand your ground" principle applies to lethal force situations.
This article delineates which states have "stand your ground" laws and which use a different legal standard.
Castle Doctrine
Even in states that require a person to retreat from the threat of imminent harm before defending themselves, a person can often use deadly force against someone who unlawfully enters their home.
This rule, also known as "the castle doctrine," allows people to defend their homes against intruders through the use of lethal force.
Additional material on the castle doctrine is available on FindLaw. But when in doubt, it is always a good idea to consult a local attorney for legal advice.
Need Help With a Claim of Self-Defense?
Self-defense claims are fairly common. But the situations in which a person can defend themselves and how much force they can use are complicated. Everything is much simpler with the advice of a competent criminal defense lawyer. Find an experienced criminal defense attorney near you.

@@ReigoVassal”Citizens? What citizens? Where?” - Marines Malevolent, probably
Ask not shat the military can do for you but what you can do for the military.
Oh but they do actually, its just that sometimes it has to be done by a massive, weeks long orbital borbardment of a mostly loyal world killing billions of imperial citizens just because some scavenger in the underhive accidentally stumbled upon khorns symbol..
what can you do eh..
I never thought of that before, world's being left behind by the Imperium until there's nothing left but legends. That's incredibly interesting worldbuilding
Imagine a horror game where you're a regular citizen in a small village on an abandoned world. No one is coming to save you and you must face off the horrors by yourself
It's always so funny when you are doing a super dark and serious intro and then all of a sudden "super happy guy doing a sponsor" and then back to the horror 😂
Please please please do more of these. This, and the king of pigs are my 2 favorite videos from your entire channel. The visuals set you apart from channels such as "A vox in the void". They make the story much more engaging, and im captivated to watch start to finish.
More! More! More!
I usually just listen to these stories w no visuals. Vox is great, but I like wes’s choice with the stories that would hold up as decent horror minus the lore
Mine is definetly mortarions first crusade
"The various military forces of the imperium will do all they can to protect thier citizens"
No they fucking won't.
“Nobody knows what the skin man wants”
He wants to sell you a skin flute
It's surprisingly interesting to hear about a world/civilization that treats the Imperium as their mysterious and mythical advanced ancestors, instead of the Dark Age of Tech Humanity from an Imperial perspective.
"I lost a hand. That's all." 27:04
Best Quote of the video.
I love the grimdark story hour. It also just feels perfect for October. Like some 40k stories to tell in the dark…
So, Marceline dragged a full grown man a long distance past creature-infested territory, with only one hand? That’s some real Girl Boss energy.
I thought the same thing
Your horror videos are probably your best content. Praise be.
I hope he make more, more frequently
I think Skin man is connected to the Drukhari. the way that it was describe sounded like that homonculi creature that Tau encounter.
Theory, he was a medic the Drukhari had been captured in the battle of the legend and implanted something that gave him his immortality but at the price of constantly needing new limbs and organs.
Wait, so if she brought a living person, the Skin Man could have resurrected Cole?
Probably not, he says “you brought me a corpse” the dude was hours dead at most, he wasn’t decayed at all, then acts like returning a week old corpse is equivalent. He didn’t care, he used her, why he didn’t just kill her? Because he saw an opportunity to double dip
Chaotic creatures will always find a way to screw you over in a deal especially when they promise to ressurect a dead loved one
Probably
No, he was just fucking with her. "Of curse i'm a monster made of body parts and i'm using your husband's voice, of curse i can bring him back with no problems"
I doubt it. He would have probably made some kind of other ironic quip to justify the zombie he gave her. Although, I do wonder if he could have had the power to put a demon inside the construct he made, to make it less of an automaton. I think such sorcery though requires enormous amounts of power or expendature in 40k, and would probably demand more than one sacrifice to make it worthwhile.
Anyone else listen to these videos while they go to bed? Idk why, but I really enjoy this content as I'm crashing. I'll just put a video on, and drift off as listening to our boy narrate the *"Grimdark Story Hour."*
You really need a video of that's bist a compilation of multiple Grimdark stories put into a single, 4hr video Wess.
Any theories what the skin man is? I honestly thought it had something to do with nurgle or tzeentch but its really interesting to see a character that seems to be logical(although uncaring for the emperor) was smart. So it was a weird ending where she was satisfied seeing Cole like that
I was thinking a flayed one that somehow grew beyond its madness
I think Slaanesh has some ties to the skin man. Cole was gone for 6 days, which is their holy number, and the throughline of love and torture between Cole, his wife, and the creepy merchant seems to be connected to their domain.
I kinda just want to assume that its an entity that exists seperate of the 4 and exists on that world as it got harder and harder to be free of their influence in the warp
@@spencerc4252 Kind of what I was thinking too. Some kind of other warp entity not necessarily attached to the chaos gods. It seems like it constantly needs to replace its parts though, and that it can create zombies without too much effort. I am thinking that the area there where it lives is kind of thin between the warp and reality. Like the area in the mountains in the Horus Heresy where Loken encountered Samus, and in the woods on Caliban where Zahariel encountered the watchers. I like un-categorized antagonists in the seeming expansive possibilities of Warhammer.

I love these GrimDark Story Hour episodes. They are some of my favorite excerpts from the WH40K lore.
But everything you put out is amazing, so I’m here for it all! Favorite Warhammer content creator by far!
I was expecting her to go back out and capture the old religious woman. Think about it. She’s old alive and probably relatively frail. Take the husbands corpse back and offer the woman and the husband. The next time he comes back he’s alive and sentient, but severely traumatized.
Still pretty cool ending.
That's under the assumption it's in the Skin-Man's power to provide something other than a twisted, monstrous result 😂
@@blowfish1702 True. Actually that's extremely likely considering horror story and all. She shows up with the living woman and the husband. But after an awkward silence skin man is like, "Well, I can give you back your hand, but that's it." 😆
What a lovely story to wake up to.
These are good; I hope you continue narrating such stories.
So stocked for this story!! Thank you so much for another awesome story!! ❤
Grimdark story hour is awesome man. Good way to start the day. Morning meetings are much better with 40k in a headphone lol.
Thanks for all these grimdark horrors, it's got me listening to more on audible, so far my favorite that I heard was the wicked and the damned keep up the good work Wes! 😊
I really like the 40k stories of entities that either developed on their own without origin with the chaos gods or evolved way past that.
Praise be to WesHammer. There is another story I can share with my mother. We are not even into 40k because it's kinda inconsistent and ridiculous, but these stories are the best.
Thank you and thanks to the authors so much!
I wonder, if she brought him another body if the skin man could restore more life. Not even someone she killed but Simone who say died of old age. Could the skin man scavenge the ruins and find things her family could sell or use in exchange for body’s. She just opened up a whole new trading lane.
I’m not kidding I want Adams family rip off where her husband and kids collect bodies take them to the skin man in exchange for useful goods.
Yes, absolutely! to all three.
So far I enjoy these kind of videos the most along with the Deep Dives because the stories give more of a background understanding of 40K that the video games and comics just never could
I just got into Warhammer 40K and man it was all because of the Grimdark stories you tell, appreciate you opening my eyes man
good lord the madness of love in this story is really something
I still think that the second story you voiced over (?) Was the most unsettwling like this feeling of inevebility and that nothing can be done about it

The skin man's final words make me wonder, had she given him a living being could her husband have been returned in full.
It's possible, but she should have worded it better then "I will give anything to get my husband back".
She never mentioned the state she wanted her husband back in, and the "anything" part means she most likely all ready gave away her soul.
One of the best stories I listened too. Love your channel
Already got it downloaded so i can listen to it while im toolin around at work love the content bro

28:15 O’ would that I were a Salamander space marine in the immediate vicinity with a few moments to spare. I would impart a few much-needed lessons onto this young man with great enthusiasm. 🦎 👊🏼
Edit: 29:50 Nvm she took care of his arse.
This one actually had a semi good ending for once… not exactly the best outcome but it’s certainly not as bad as everyone dying
Implying death is the worst thing that can happen in 40k.... :P
@@nigredoooalgown6245 compared to the other horror stories? Yes.
You have children dying and people feeding their partner to a pig demon.
You have the one on the old space station where a demon lures in a ship, causes it to be blown up and small squad of people slowly turn on each and murder each other.
You have the two people trying to escape a planet before a warp storm comes and engulfs it… guess what? One of them murders the other and then evil villain monologues about having murdered gods knows how many by deliberately screwing with shipment orders with the explicit purpose of causing people suffering.
So yeah this is one of the few horror stories that doesn’t have death in every brutal and selfish way possible (except a rapist… so ehh deserved)
I don't know, man. Maybe Marceline & what's left of Cole are somewhat OK in their madness, but their kids are about to go through some pretty nightmarish trauma for the foreseeable future, or at least until their minds break, too.
@@Ellman1231 I agree zombie dad isn’t the best outcome possible and they still live on a hellish world of horrors with an unpleasant future ahead of them.
But in comparison to the other 40k horror stories, three people surviving and one becoming a zombie is a lot better so that’s why I dare say it’s “good”

Trauma as a child in the grimdark? That's just a normal childhood
LOVE THE STORIES. KEEP THEM COMING. THANKS.
Love the horror series. Can't wait for you to cover more of these.
This was amazing to listen to, please make more!!
I listened to one Grim Dark Story Hour a few days ago knowing nothing about Warhammer. Now I’m looking into painting minis. I will never financially recover from this.
Waiting on the king in yellow video . Every since you made a post about him I've been intrigued. Excited for a vid.
Yay!
A new bedtime story. 💜
Love listening to your horror vids as i fall asleep. That voice and those stories. *chefs kiss*
That was excellent. The imagery you used worked well to capture the feel of the story, even though for the most part it was unrelated. Looking forward to the next one.
aaah yess finally, my favorite contentt in warhammer 40k, tysm bro
Great video please keep up your amazing works stay safe and have a wonderful and day
It baffles me how some of the scariest shit a person could think of is just common place in the 40K universe, like. “God damnit, that’s the 3rd dog we’ve had this year that turned into a blood spewing demon that tried to eat our son. Maybe the 4th one will be good.” This lore is butt fuck nuts and I love it
I've never been a man for these kind of stories but goddamn Wes, you outdid yourself once again😤
I love grim story hour. Please make more. Also this is heresy
Edit: your voice acting is so good. Keep it up
