@@jonathanharris4871 it's set after A Cabin vs a Killer from the Stars, but before the Threshold of Evil. I leave it ambiguous as to the Vanishing City of Warmire, Colorado.

You're correct, the sun isn't a star. It's obviously a deadly laser. Edit: Oh my god, the sun actually shot a deadly laser at something. I was making a joke.
This story so strongly radiates Dead Space vibes. Ever since I saw the Dr. Who episode about the sentient star, I've been obsessed with the idea of them being eldritch horrors.
I mean, if space had an atmosphere then we'd be hearing it screaming for eternity. And solar flares can end us if desired So that's pretty eldritch and terrifying to me
@KamiEuKiTo ? No, lol. I don't take any issue with seeing creation as a series of cyclical events, but it's not creating a god in our image to perceive the potential for sentients of higher planes, or that all which is occurs in the imagination of some sleepers mind. Id argue the opposite. There is life everywhere, conciousness abounds, and their is reasons to believe that forms of awareness permeate all matter. Our creativity, living adaptation, evolution, the desire to seek, and overcome, resisters; if conciousness exists, why wouldn't the universe itself be conscious? Why wouldn't the source be dreaming? I'm not saying it has to be, but to declare the thought narcissistic?🤣
34:07 What I can decipher: “You stole from me. You do not own my soul. I will wipe you out and cleanse my domain. Pray to your gods and die". Such a chilling line. Such a brilliant story, and brilliant narration to go with it.
The fact that the story has one character driven mad by his experiences while the person reading about it is able to distance themself by just not thinking too much about it is a really good touch. I love cosmic horror where it's a potential threat but not a looming one, so it can just be filed away by the brain with other potential threats like asteroid impacts or gamma bursts.
I love the Lovecraftian aspect that there is something so beyond our ability to comprehend its existence that destroys with madness. It is told in such a matter of fact, as though narrator is just telling about their day.
I agree, it reads like he is sitting in the room after he used the gate just relaying the absolute bat shit insane information to the director. I'd love to see another chapter with his son being in the space program and being one of the few people who know the truth. That he joins the organization and they figure out a way to somehow deal with the danger. Its interesting though that the sun only went insane on them after they poked at it. I would think the organization would look further into advancing the wormhole tech to get humanity the fuck away from it as opposed to poking at it or trying to tame it in some way. It begs the question though that if our sun is one of these entities, does that mean that ALL stars are one as well? Interesting stuff.
Not fiction only, just read between the lines…MK ultra at its best with these astronauts & this is just more information about keeping the hoax going about the moon landing BS! It’s fascinated a lot of people but also put aliens in their brain which is all a psychological operation.
I highly recommend ‘The Left-Right Game’. Yes, it’s 6+ hours but don’t let that deter you one bit. It really is quite amazing that it’s not written by a professional author. And it’s much, much better than you ever imagine it will be! ruclips.net/video/Bbziw22vVfE/видео.html
@@ScramTek oh that’s SUCH a great story. Yeah I have a crackpot theory that some of the writers of these stories are actually best selling authors trying out new ideas or genres. Like if THE Nora Roberts/JD Robb (romance/light sci-if romance) wrote some gory ass horror Pasta! Some of them are really THAT good. I often wonder how most don’t have a contract. hmm..?
It goes back to our ancient ancestry when we witnessed solar eclipses. Eclipses are awesome to behold, but ancient texts usually cite them as a "change". With our modern eyes, we interpret this change as a bad thing, but usually, this change is from one year to the next, a-la Mayan Calender suddenly ending and everyone assuming it's the end times.
We knew the world would not be the same. Few people laughed. Few people cried. Most people were silent. I remembered the Hindu scripture from the bavahad giva. Vishnu,is trying to persuade the prince,to do his duty,and,to impress him. V I S H N U T A K E S O N H I S M U L T I A R M E D F O R M , A N D S A Y S , N O W I A M B E C O M E D E A T H , T H E D E S T O R Y E R O F W O R L D S. I supposedly heard that,one way or another.
Interesting thing I noticed: The reality he traveled to? His solar system's star is probably completely normal, like ours. He could choose wherever he could go, and his desire likely included the star not being an eldritch horror.
@@HKNative217 yeah we do. We know how physics works on a macro level, for every practical use. Physics doesn't allow for eldritch horrors beyond our comprehension to become stars.
@@zachrabaznaz7687 that's what we think. We're so smug about our findings but literally one discovery can crumble everything we think we know. Hell, the earth's mantle core and outer core are purely theoretical.
Possible Spoiler: Sounds like the sun was a prison for something nasty, thus "not a star." Just stumbled on this channel, and can't wait to listen to more!
Not a prison but definitely a sentient living being, in its probable dormant state benevolent to the creatures that evolved from it's "birth" stage. But malevolent when we in our ignorance of it being a life form awoke it from it's "slumber", it knew of us, understood us, but as the Titans of old barely tolerated us. Our mistake in trying to tap it's power in our arrogance believing in our "manifest destiny" destroyed us.
@@mountaintiger6945 the sun is already scary without us attributing sentience to it. It will kill us all when it turn into a red giant after all. But i guess that an essential part of good cosmic horror is absurdity. There are a lot of things that can easily kill us and we are unable to stop (hirricanes, earthquakes etc.) but we don't lose our sanity over it because we understand how it works and why, and we accept it.
Most likely a living sentient entity itself. In the XX century there was a filosophical current that sustained that the planets and stars are the actual living organisms, we are just parasites, only their life cycles are so vast that we dont even register in their minds. Beter to kept it that way.
S-Tier reading voice. And a bloody awesome short story to boot. And the slight sound of the turning page is great. I know a lot of audiobooks cut that out, but it just adds to the atmosphere here. Excellently done!
Wow... Never in my entire LIFE I would be so mind-blown by this kind of story-telling. The delivery of the story-telling is very captivating; I felt like my own grandpa was doing the narrations. But the story itself in essence is pretty grim yet beautiful. I'm actually looking forward for someone in trying to make a comic or animations about the events in the story. That would be Fantastic!
I've just finished watching, and this is utterly gut-wrenching. While yes it was truly horrifying when Earrh was destroyed and the Sun "spoke," I still feel the end of the journal where it depicts Shay's fall to madness is to so much more horrifying and depressing. He witnessed what no one could even begin to process, saved all of humanity, and prevented the complete collapse of reality, and yet he couldn't even feel safe and happy in his home. Even after combining with the safe timeliness Shay and sharing their memories, he still couldn't even be happy with HIS family and only saw them as ghosts of what he truly desired. A horrifying ending to a great story.
Yeah, I bet netflix would eat this up to churn out as one of there more low budget ideas. Its hard to take anything eldritch horror wise into the mainstream but I bet it would do extremely well on some streaming service, bunch of no name actors with a neat story.
Nope there a dozen pot holes. Badly badly written. Blow up the Earth with that much power and the moon would be be destroyed to. I'm not going to go through and explain all the stupid mistakes but even be on the science.. opportunities to increase the fear missed.. Voice actor is very good but no writings terrible. I mean you start off with the guys family killed on the planet blown up. There's no threat. This is almost funny. No it's bad writing. I mean I'm not even going to go threw it. its just badly written. Read the transcript you'll see just how great a voice actor this guy is.
@@rev.jonathanwint6038 well considering how well you write unintelligible sentences. I find it hard to believe you have any idea what you're talking about, and somehow in your edit you still managed too screw up. If anything is badly written, Its trying to figure out what you just wrote in English. I count 8 errors in your comment and I'm astonished your editing skills missed it. See if you can find mine. ;)
@@2_protects_the_1 Maybe they're Al badly written. Including yours. I'll only point out one mistake though: you used too instead of to. Edit: I now realize you want your mistakes pointed out and made them on purpose. *Well *using well twice in the same sentence sounds bad but is ok *first sentence is not a full thought *when the first period is correctly placed the next sentence starts with and (which is more ok than people think) *to *it's *the comment with its is slightly nonsensical *Jonathan made a lot more that 8 errors, but if you count this that seems to be how many you made. The story is garbage and I wasted 45 minutes on it because I unfortunately have nothing better to do.
@@rev.jonathanwint6038 Coming from the guy that can't seem to put together a sentence. Wtf are you even saying. Your sentence structure is so bad it makes me think that you are mentally handicapped. I am glad that you have this horrible take on this story because i feel the opposite. It makes me think i am correct about me enjoying it since it is the opposite of what you think. Next i hope he does a story about the parasite that resides in the space where your brain was.
Excellent. Reminds me of the style and quality of a Dean Koontz thriller. "Strangers" or "Watchers" for example. By chance, "The Sun Is Not A Star" appeared in my YT feed, repeatedly today. While doing a bit of job searching, I listened. I was definitely hooked. Very good! Several times I had to go back and re-listen, just to be sure I absorbed the information so that I could effectively "visualize" the scenes. Subscribed. Liked. Awesome!
Ding Dong and Ring Ding for I too had the same syncing to Dean... Yes the visual and emotional depth is so like Dean's telling of Travis, Einstein, Nora while out running Vince and the outside.r.
The scary thing about this is that ancient man knew way more about what they saw in the sky than what they should have. Not the least was their preoccupation with the stars themselves. You could wonder a lot more about things nearer and more relevant but the right question is, why so much interest in the exact position of the stars and what they resembled?
@@alexanderkulaev541 A man with obscure knowledge of different cultures, mythology and occult. Best I'd describe him as - gateway to esoteric enlightenment. You can watch his RUclips channel "Atlantean Gardens".
What an amazing story! I've listened to creepypastas for years, and most of them are kinda meh nowadays. This one was really good. And superb narration! 😄
"Nexus Gate"?! Viidithe22? Just checking. Oh, a strong reference of a gun fanatic civilian neutralizing a rampaging cosmic entity; I love this series. An enthralling imagination Caligo.
I can't express how happy I am to see how much your channel has grown since I found you over a year ago! Your videos make my work go so much faster. I remember you were struggling when I first heard your narration from a collaboration on another channel. I think you had posted about trying to upload as fast as you could but it was hard because your access to internet wasn't always a guaranteed thing. I just remember thinking, this dude has an incredible talent for narration and it made me become a member. I knew you would go far on your talent and I wanted to help you get there faster. I'm so happy to see your channel doing so well and I hope your home life is doing well too.
I appreciate the acknowledgement of astrophysics, a lot of stories forget to keep track of it, gravity, speed of light, all that, I think it's important to have some understanding for spacebound stories.
Yes! Even if the story requires that it breaks these laws to work, that acknowledgement not only respects the reader's sensibilities, if done well it can add to the atmosphere and tension.
@the EQUATION I consider it more a science fiction, if the author went on long tangents to explain every little detail of how it works, the story would be needlessly long.
there are fantasy aspects of course, like what the sun is, and getting to a place by picturing where in spacetime you wanna go. But discrediting it as all fantasy is disingenuous.
This reminded me of the old time radio shows I would hear when I was a boy. The story is creative with an Eldritch eerie vibe. You just earned another subscriber!
Such an amazing story, and the kid has the right idea by the end of it. He's 100% right. So the sun could possibly (1/however chance) just one day obliterate earth and the solar system? Then nothing has changed. Only the means, the method, and reason, would change. Does and can that make it infinitely more confusing and or horrifying? Totally. I'd crap myself if the sun suddenly blinked and I heard an angry voice in my head say "die". But at the same time, if it hasn't happened, then the fear of it happening, is no different than the fear the sun goes supernova, or a asteroid strikes the earth, or you walk into the street at the wrong time and a bus hits you. It all ends the same anyways. Personally, I'd rather go out from something extraordinary. Let a asteroid just big enough to get through and land on me out and about obliterate me compared to choking on a cherry pit. But it's all irrelevant as the point is to not dwell on it. It's okay to think about, and feel some sort of way about these things, but letting the mind dwell will destroy you far faster. Anxiety is a douch x,D and some may do this uncontrollably anyways. But if you have it, then it's all the more important to distract yourself with infinitely more relevant and present things than destruction from an outer and unknowable force. Doubly so why I love these kinds of stories, they really make you think. Personally they help me find solutions to my own more substantial and changeable mental problems. As that whole anxiety rant is how I personally found my coping mechanism when my anxiety gets too horrible about something that I know is unlikely. Doesn't help me with my immediate and happening anxiety, but, progress is progress ☺️
If you were in the world of this story, the implications would be irrelevant. There is nothing you can do about them, unless in the far future the humanity of that timeline develops technology just as powerful as what the sun is capable of. In the meantime what is the the MCs son supposed to do? Fret about "implications", or move on with his life.
Wow, just wow. This is genuinely one of the best Lovecraftian stories I ever heard/read. And Lovecraft himself could have been proud of making up this story and writing it so well. You are such a huge talent, James, as a writer, storyteller, beautiful and true stylyst, and also as a narrator and director. I'm so happy I've found your channel. Now I will be going through all your mystery archives tale by tale while I'm exercising or having dinner or prepping for going to sleep. Thank you for your creativity and beautiful work!
It's good to see him finally getting some recognition. He's been at it for years. I've been listening to him since like 2019. I remember seeing him get like 2 hundred views while someone like Mr Creeps got like 40 thousand and it always baffled me. Don't get me wrong. Mr Creeps is okay. But V22 is much more talented and hands down, much better story choices. Guess Creepypasta Narrating is like everything else. Sometimes shits just not fair.
This was so dope! I absolutely LOVE this series...I love that nod to the couple that killed that alien in one of the last part of the series. You're kickin' ass homeslice 👍👏 💙❤💜
Just got this randomly recommended, only 12 mins in and this is fucking awesome listening after a big day. Looking forward to exploring your work, i been missing good story telling
I wrote a story like this for a creative writing assignment in my junior high English class when I was a kid in the '70's, where a space monster swallowed the Earth. My teacher got really weird with me. He wasn't the most stable character to begin with, but I think it drove him over the edge into a nervous breakdown. Good times! ;)
@@VenomSnake420 My story was nowhere near as detailed and well crafted as this one. It was only a couple of pages, and, to be honest, I based it on a story I read in a sci-fi comic book. I no longer have any copy of it, though I somewhat remember the dramatic, black pill ending paragraph. The teacher was known for being verbally and somewhat physically abusive to his male pupils. He would throw erasers or chalk at the heads of kids he thought weren't paying attention in class. Shortly after I turned in my story to him, he confronted me as I was getting on the bus to go home. He was a tall, thin, relatively young guy and I was a short, chubby, non-threatening, bespectacled kid. He was with an older guy who was an administrative assistant and pointed at me, saying "That's him! He's the one!" The admin said "O.K., I'll take care of it." I never heard anything further about it, but it was disturbing. I can't think of anything that I could have done to trigger him besides that story. I have no pity for any psychological stress I might have caused that jerk. I guess it was a bit of nerd revenge.
i completetly forgot that the whole story was basically a reading of the fathers journal. at the end i was like "how ironic. the son's become the same as his father" just to be reminded that the son was simply reading the journal all along
Holy SpaceBalls!!! 😮 This was FANFU€KINGTASTIC!!! Your voice acting is Top Tier! *chef’s kiss* 👌💋 You’re definitely getting added to my “Favorite Horror Narrators” list ASAP!!! 🤩 P.S. I’m ‘bout to binge-listen the fu€k out of your videos 😅
You CAN'T travel back in time to change something. Because IF you change that thing you delete the REASON that you went back to change...so you'd never go back. But if you never go back than you couldn't have changed anything. It's an infinite loop...catch 22 kinda paradox.
Unless you travel to a alternate universe when you time travel so everything you change doesn't effect the universe you came from, just the one you traveled to. Infinite possibilities might exist.
@@Hades1100 true...but you still wouldn't be changing your history. I personally like the multi verse theory that for each and every choice we make another reality exists where we went left instead of right chose chicken rather than hamburger etc..I like quantim mechanics everything that can happen therefore must happen somewhere...idk ??
I mean, this story did pretty much address this, as he states that everyone and everything (which he considers to be his "real family") is long dead. Plus that part about sending people to the past never affecting the time-stream, and them never coming back. It pretty explicitly confirms that time travel creates a new universe/timeline each time.
A story that would fit right into the SCP universe. From the cosmic horror existential horror to the shady organization messing with things they shouldnt.

I put this on in the background while I was playing a video game, but after the first few minutes I paused the game for an hour to listen to this fully. Phenomenal and chilling writing. At the end I really felt the sheer existential dread of living with the ghosts of your family. Going to listen to the whole series now!
This was my first time just listening to one of your channels great stories. The title alone just sparked my curiosity I just started listening and at first I actually thought it was like a true story untill it got really wild and I'm like" okay this is science fiction"that's credit to how great the narrator was. I really felt like I felt watching Interstellar which is a great complicated film.
The visceral scream that I scremt when I got interrupted by a solar panel ad kicked in mid way. I never thought I'd get jump scared by a youtube ad, but here we are. Well done
This is one of the best things I've ever come across online. Great voice, great subject! Amazing job. I'm not one for audio anything, but at 3:30am, it's perfect👌😍
The Earth is destroyed, you're on a moonbase that's careening out of the solar system and you're concerned about enough money being spent on a project? Dude, civilization just collapsed, capitalism with it.
This was honestly one of the best stories i have ever heard hopefully the author turns this into a book so I can put this on my shelf. Ik it’s short but goddamn. And the narration was perfect. Definitely reading more from this author
WoW! No words for how amazing this is. I’m one that lives in the belief that death and destruction is less than a blink away so “just don’t think about it” but hearing it... it made me very sad. More than sad. It almost allowed me to slip back into depression. A place I once was for way too long and NEVER wanna return to. I knew I could end up there, I never thought listening to a story would be the thing that could take me there. Whoa! Even with that, this is still a completely fabulous story. Not one that I’ll ever listen to again. However, i’ll be checking out the other things this channel does
First story I’ve ever sat and listened to in my adult life. Wow! Thanks and subbed. Great job! Kind of feel bad for the Sun to be honest..ripping a huge wound into it like that in order to steal its energy, I’d be pissed too.
It's still annoying to see someone like Mr Creeps getting like 40 thousand views. And V22 getting 3 or 4 thousand. Nothing against Mr Creeps, but come on. V22 is much more talented, and the story choice comparison, forget about it. Some of the stuff Mr Creeps reads sounds like it was written by some green freshman college student with absolutely no life experience.
To be fair, I never even went to college and I'm self-taught on top of that. I'm just happy my books are liked despite a few flaws here and there on my part.
@@itsJamesCaligo I've enjoyed your work. And college is overrated. I too was mostly self educated. Dropped out of highschool. No one took me serious. Went back, got my GED. At 25 I went to university. I was on top of the friggin world, like yeah, in your face bitch. No one ever thought I'd go to college. Aside from math I was right up with or ahead of all the egg heads who stayed in high school and got their diploma. Psst. Now look who's laughing. I double majored in literary-criticism and psychology. Ended up graduating with a respectable GPA. Did good, right? Not so fast. Now I'm over a hundred thousand in the hole. I work the front desk and bartend at an airport hotel in Milwaukee. So yeah, college is most definitely overrated. I could work the front desk and bartend at an airport hotel as a highschool dropout and I wouldn't be in debt up to my eyeballs.
The end is what truely scares me from the effect of knowing after all you've done you don't belong In a place you once did going back in time knowing what truely happend
I got engrossed in the story, I forgot it was a guy reading his father's journal, so he can't be dead...meaning the explosion was an illusion...and this is about the to get WAY scarier, isn't it?
This is my first time checking out your channel, and i gotta say, THAT WAS FANTASTIC. I love sci fi horror so this was also really good for me personally, thank you for making this wonderful video!
Finally! Some good cosmic horror! This is one of the best stories I’ve listened to in a while. The similarities to Lovecraftian writing have already been mentioned in the comments, and it’s one of my favorite things about this story. I’ve been searching for something of this nature for a while.
It's half past 4 in the morning now and I just finished listening. Couldn't sleep before and decided to give this a shot. Glad I did because it is fantastic. Earned another sub.
This is amazing. All I could think of while hearing this story is the song Space Oddity by David Bowie. I went ahead to hear it after finishing this video and it's a pure experience. Makes me appreciate the story even more. Thanks for narrating this!
You are not a human. There were no "Romans, or dragons" Did the Maya name themselves Maya? His story as told by the Narrator, one view tells everyone's story
That made my Christmas even more enjoyable! Thank you for that story! This story is exciting because it makes the Sun more mysterious by the deliberate acts it takes against the entire Solar System. There has been a growing school of through in the spiritual community that the whole Universe is actually conscious and that our human senses limit what we perceive to be alive. The Sun having a consciousness is really no more strange than carbon-based bodies having consciousness. We really don't understand what this Universe is all about or why it exists.

Normally i use stories like this to fall asleep but this one was so well written and so good it actually kept my attention all the way through
Same
Yup same here 😂
I wonder what kind of dreams you have if this is the kind of material you use to fall asleep to?
Righ????
Mfw when I watched the whole video with my eyes closed tryna sleep
interesting story, the sun changing color is a common motif in apocalyptic stories. maybe a deep ancesteral memory of a cataclysm
Volcanic ash changes our perception of the color of the sky
It goes back to our ancient ancestry when we witnessed solar eclipses. Eclipses are awesome to behold, but ancient texts usually cite them as a "change". With our modern eyes, we interpret this change as a bad thing, but usually, this change is from one year to the next, a-la Mayan Calender suddenly ending and everyone assuming it's the end times.
@@HighIQRetard ah yes

The blue star freaked me out too that's ancient folklore in an Indian tribe. It talks about the fifth world.
We knew the world would not be the same.
Few people laughed.
Few people cried.
Most people were silent.
I remembered the Hindu scripture from the bavahad giva.
Vishnu,is trying to persuade the prince,to do his duty,and,to impress him.

Interesting thing I noticed: The reality he traveled to? His solar system's star is probably completely normal, like ours. He could choose wherever he could go, and his desire likely included the star not being an eldritch horror.
We don't know if our star is a "star"
@@HKNative217 yeah we do. We know how physics works on a macro level, for every practical use. Physics doesn't allow for eldritch horrors beyond our comprehension to become stars.
@@zachrabaznaz7687 that's what we think. We're so smug about our findings but literally one discovery can crumble everything we think we know. Hell, the earth's mantle core and outer core are purely theoretical.

@First M Last Said on a computer. 🤣
That was great!! Best scary space story I've ever heard and your narration was perfect. Did you write this story? If so you have massive talent.
Ok, I read the other comments and got the answer. Doesn't take away from your incredible storytelling ability. 🙂
@@tammywagner8032 Yeah he did a great job narrating it.
*"Pray to your gods and die"*
Honestly such a hard line
Possible Spoiler: Sounds like the sun was a prison for something nasty, thus "not a star." Just stumbled on this channel, and can't wait to listen to more!
Yeah it's where Satan lives
SCP-001 When day breaks comes to mind.
Not a prison but definitely a sentient living being, in its probable dormant state benevolent to the creatures that evolved from it's "birth" stage. But malevolent when we in our ignorance of it being a life form awoke it from it's "slumber", it knew of us, understood us, but as the Titans of old barely tolerated us. Our mistake in trying to tap it's power in our arrogance believing in our "manifest destiny" destroyed us.
@@mountaintiger6945 the sun is already scary without us attributing sentience to it. It will kill us all when it turn into a red giant after all. But i guess that an essential part of good cosmic horror is absurdity. There are a lot of things that can easily kill us and we are unable to stop (hirricanes, earthquakes etc.) but we don't lose our sanity over it because we understand how it works and why, and we accept it.
Most likely a living sentient entity itself. In the XX century there was a filosophical current that sustained that the planets and stars are the actual living organisms, we are just parasites, only their life cycles are so vast that we dont even register in their minds. Beter to kept it that way.
S-Tier reading voice.
And a bloody awesome short story to boot.
And the slight sound of the turning page is great. I know a lot of audiobooks cut that out, but it just adds to the atmosphere here.
Excellently done!
A bit too forcefully gruff, and he doesnt have a deep enough voice to pull it off super well.
@@_trismegistus everyone's a critic🤔
Many different voices too! Makes it very interesting
@@_trismegistus
Yeah, got my throat all uncomfortable.
That's what i thought ;)
Wow...
Never in my entire LIFE I would be so mind-blown by this kind of story-telling. The delivery of the story-telling is very captivating; I felt like my own grandpa was doing the narrations. But the story itself in essence is pretty grim yet beautiful. I'm actually looking forward for someone in trying to make a comic or animations about the events in the story. That would be Fantastic!
Nyan cat man!!!
Your own grandpa? Haha
I've just finished watching, and this is utterly gut-wrenching. While yes it was truly horrifying when Earrh was destroyed and the Sun "spoke," I still feel the end of the journal where it depicts Shay's fall to madness is to so much more horrifying and depressing. He witnessed what no one could even begin to process, saved all of humanity, and prevented the complete collapse of reality, and yet he couldn't even feel safe and happy in his home. Even after combining with the safe timeliness Shay and sharing their memories, he still couldn't even be happy with HIS family and only saw them as ghosts of what he truly desired. A horrifying ending to a great story.
I think we can Al agree that this story was so well written
It would be fitting to see this turned into a real script for a movie
Yeah, I bet netflix would eat this up to churn out as one of there more low budget ideas. Its hard to take anything eldritch horror wise into the mainstream but I bet it would do extremely well on some streaming service, bunch of no name actors with a neat story.
Nope there a dozen pot holes. Badly badly written. Blow up the Earth with that much power and the moon would be be destroyed to. I'm not going to go through and explain all the stupid mistakes but even be on the science.. opportunities to increase the fear missed.. Voice actor is very good but no writings terrible. I mean you start off with the guys family killed on the planet blown up. There's no threat. This is almost funny. No it's bad writing. I mean I'm not even going to go threw it. its just badly written. Read the transcript you'll see just how great a voice actor this guy is.
@@rev.jonathanwint6038 well considering how well you write unintelligible sentences. I find it hard to believe you have any idea what you're talking about, and somehow in your edit you still managed too screw up. If anything is badly written, Its trying to figure out what you just wrote in English. I count 8 errors in your comment and I'm astonished your editing skills missed it. See if you can find mine. ;)
@@2_protects_the_1 Maybe they're Al badly written. Including yours. I'll only point out one mistake though: you used too instead of to. Edit: I now realize you want your mistakes pointed out and made them on purpose. *Well *using well twice in the same sentence sounds bad but is ok *first sentence is not a full thought *when the first period is correctly placed the next sentence starts with and (which is more ok than people think) *to *it's *the comment with its is slightly nonsensical *Jonathan made a lot more that 8 errors, but if you count this that seems to be how many you made. The story is garbage and I wasted 45 minutes on it because I unfortunately have nothing better to do.
@@rev.jonathanwint6038 Coming from the guy that can't seem to put together a sentence. Wtf are you even saying. Your sentence structure is so bad it makes me think that you are mentally handicapped. I am glad that you have this horrible take on this story because i feel the opposite. It makes me think i am correct about me enjoying it since it is the opposite of what you think. Next i hope he does a story about the parasite that resides in the space where your brain was.
Excellent. Reminds me of the style and quality of a Dean Koontz thriller. "Strangers" or "Watchers" for example. By chance, "The Sun Is Not A Star" appeared in my YT feed, repeatedly today. While doing a bit of job searching, I listened. I was definitely hooked. Very good! Several times I had to go back and re-listen, just to be sure I absorbed the information so that I could effectively "visualize" the scenes. Subscribed. Liked. Awesome!
Ding Dong and Ring Ding for I too had the same syncing to Dean... Yes the visual and emotional depth is so like Dean's telling of Travis, Einstein, Nora while out running Vince and the outside.r.
The scary thing about this is that ancient man knew way more about what they saw in the sky than what they should have. Not the least was their preoccupation with the stars themselves. You could wonder a lot more about things nearer and more relevant but the right question is, why so much interest in the exact position of the stars and what they resembled?
Search up Robert Sepehr.
No tv is why. Boredom

@@Home_Rich thank you!
What an amazing story! I've listened to creepypastas for years, and most of them are kinda meh nowadays. This one was really good. And superb narration! 😄
That's simply because 1, creepypastas are just that, they are just meh in their mediocrity, and 2, this wasn't a creepypasta.
Very scp-esque writing quality, and nexpo/nightmind-esque narration, just perfect to find another channel doing this type of content!!
"Nexus Gate"?! Viidithe22? Just checking. Oh, a strong reference of a gun fanatic civilian neutralizing a rampaging cosmic entity; I love this series.
An enthralling imagination Caligo.
The Cabin vs Space Killer story is my greatest shame oof
I can't express how happy I am to see how much your channel has grown since I found you over a year ago! Your videos make my work go so much faster. I remember you were struggling when I first heard your narration from a collaboration on another channel. I think you had posted about trying to upload as fast as you could but it was hard because your access to internet wasn't always a guaranteed thing. I just remember thinking, this dude has an incredible talent for narration and it made me become a member. I knew you would go far on your talent and I wanted to help you get there faster. I'm so happy to see your channel doing so well and I hope your home life is doing well too.
I appreciate the acknowledgement of astrophysics, a lot of stories forget to keep track of it, gravity, speed of light, all that, I think it's important to have some understanding for spacebound stories.
Agree
Yes!
Even if the story requires that it breaks these laws to work, that acknowledgement not only respects the reader's sensibilities, if done well it can add to the atmosphere and tension.
Lacking that depth, it is mere fantasy.
@the EQUATION I consider it more a science fiction, if the author went on long tangents to explain every little detail of how it works, the story would be needlessly long.
there are fantasy aspects of course, like what the sun is, and getting to a place by picturing where in spacetime you wanna go. But discrediting it as all fantasy is disingenuous.
This reminded me of the old time radio shows I would hear when I was a boy. The story is creative with an Eldritch eerie vibe. You just earned another subscriber!
Such an amazing story, and the kid has the right idea by the end of it. He's 100% right. So the sun could possibly (1/however chance) just one day obliterate earth and the solar system? Then nothing has changed. Only the means, the method, and reason, would change. Does and can that make it infinitely more confusing and or horrifying? Totally. I'd crap myself if the sun suddenly blinked and I heard an angry voice in my head say "die". But at the same time, if it hasn't happened, then the fear of it happening, is no different than the fear the sun goes supernova, or a asteroid strikes the earth, or you walk into the street at the wrong time and a bus hits you. It all ends the same anyways. Personally, I'd rather go out from something extraordinary. Let a asteroid just big enough to get through and land on me out and about obliterate me compared to choking on a cherry pit.
But it's all irrelevant as the point is to not dwell on it. It's okay to think about, and feel some sort of way about these things, but letting the mind dwell will destroy you far faster. Anxiety is a douch x,D and some may do this uncontrollably anyways. But if you have it, then it's all the more important to distract yourself with infinitely more relevant and present things than destruction from an outer and unknowable force.
Doubly so why I love these kinds of stories, they really make you think. Personally they help me find solutions to my own more substantial and changeable mental problems. As that whole anxiety rant is how I personally found my coping mechanism when my anxiety gets too horrible about something that I know is unlikely. Doesn't help me with my immediate and happening anxiety, but, progress is progress ☺️
Too many words.
@J.P. Simen☆ then the monolog wasn't for you 😜
Well, you're completely avoiding of all the implications
If you were in the world of this story, the implications would be irrelevant. There is nothing you can do about them, unless in the far future the humanity of that timeline develops technology just as powerful as what the sun is capable of. In the meantime what is the the MCs son supposed to do? Fret about "implications", or move on with his life.
Wow, just wow. This is genuinely one of the best Lovecraftian stories I ever heard/read. And Lovecraft himself could have been proud of making up this story and writing it so well. You are such a huge talent, James, as a writer, storyteller, beautiful and true stylyst, and also as a narrator and director.
I'm so happy I've found your channel. Now I will be going through all your mystery archives tale by tale while I'm exercising or having dinner or prepping for going to sleep. Thank you for your creativity and beautiful work!
V22 has the BEST narration voice! Always so impeccably done. 😊
Perfect for these kinda scary story
It's good to see him finally getting some recognition. He's been at it for years. I've been listening to him since like 2019. I remember seeing him get like 2 hundred views while someone like Mr Creeps got like 40 thousand and it always baffled me. Don't get me wrong. Mr Creeps is okay. But V22 is much more talented and hands down, much better story choices. Guess Creepypasta Narrating is like everything else. Sometimes shits just not fair.
Have to go with lighthouse terror on best narrative voice on this type of content
@@Daniel_4.27 Lighthouse is certainly very good as well! 😊
have to go with mr creeps on this one but

Very entertaining Short Story Thanks for posting this it was very enjoyable! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I heard Nexus Gate and realized that this is a sequel to “My House sits on the Threshold of Evil series.” After a time skip. I'm so happy.
Oh? This is a sequel?
@@diversezebra6754 The prequel that takes place before the series proper but came out after the current videos.
Just got this randomly recommended, only 12 mins in and this is fucking awesome listening after a big day. Looking forward to exploring your work, i been missing good story telling
I wrote a story like this for a creative writing assignment in my junior high English class when I was a kid in the '70's, where a space monster swallowed the Earth. My teacher got really weird with me. He wasn't the most stable character to begin with, but I think it drove him over the edge into a nervous breakdown. Good times! ;)
The reaction of the weak and penetrable mind
@@VenomSnake420 My story was nowhere near as detailed and well crafted as this one. It was only a couple of pages, and, to be honest, I based it on a story I read in a sci-fi comic book. I no longer have any copy of it, though I somewhat remember the dramatic, black pill ending paragraph.
The teacher was known for being verbally and somewhat physically abusive to his male pupils. He would throw erasers or chalk at the heads of kids he thought weren't paying attention in class. Shortly after I turned in my story to him, he confronted me as I was getting on the bus to go home. He was a tall, thin, relatively young guy and I was a short, chubby, non-threatening, bespectacled kid.
He was with an older guy who was an administrative assistant and pointed at me, saying "That's him! He's the one!" The admin said "O.K., I'll take care of it." I never heard anything further about it, but it was disturbing. I can't think of anything that I could have done to trigger him besides that story. I have no pity for any psychological stress I might have caused that jerk. I guess it was a bit of nerd revenge.
@@jerrylev59 sureeee
Awesome story! It's like if Lovecraft were writing in the 21st century
This has to be one of the best space creepypasta/stories I've listened to.
Amazing listen.
This story was so immersive. I could not pause it to go to sleep and continue later. Now it is nearly 4 am. Subscribed.
i completetly forgot that the whole story was basically a reading of the fathers journal. at the end i was like "how ironic. the son's become the same as his father" just to be reminded that the son was simply reading the journal all along
Holy SpaceBalls!!! 😮
This was FANFU€KINGTASTIC!!!
Your voice acting is Top Tier! *chef’s kiss* 👌💋 You’re definitely getting added to my “Favorite Horror Narrators” list ASAP!!! 🤩
P.S. I’m ‘bout to binge-listen the fu€k out of your videos 😅
You CAN'T travel back in time to change something. Because IF you change that thing you delete the REASON that you went back to change...so you'd never go back. But if you never go back than you couldn't have changed anything.
It's an infinite loop...catch 22 kinda paradox.
Unless you travel to a alternate universe when you time travel so everything you change doesn't effect the universe you came from, just the one you traveled to. Infinite possibilities might exist.
@@Hades1100 true...but you still wouldn't be changing your history. I personally like the multi verse theory that for each and every choice we make another reality exists where we went left instead of right chose chicken rather than hamburger etc..I like quantim mechanics everything that can happen therefore must happen somewhere...idk ??
Closed time-like loop
That and of course you can only go forward in time, like in futurama. and the universe just resets at the end
I mean, this story did pretty much address this, as he states that everyone and everything (which he considers to be his "real family") is long dead. Plus that part about sending people to the past never affecting the time-stream, and them never coming back. It pretty explicitly confirms that time travel creates a new universe/timeline each time.
A story that would fit right into the SCP universe. From the cosmic horror existential horror to the shady organization messing with things they shouldnt.
This sounds like one badass Dead Space style game . . .
I appreciate that you got Gaara from Naruto Shippuden to narrate the story. Lol

I love cosmic horror stories and this one definitely captured my imagination. Thank you for sharing!
This was my first time just listening to one of your channels great stories. The title alone just sparked my curiosity I just started listening and at first I actually thought it was like a true story untill it got really wild and I'm like" okay this is science fiction"that's credit to how great the narrator was. I really felt like I felt watching Interstellar which is a great complicated film.

don't poke the bear, especially if the bear provides life.
This was honestly one of the best stories i have ever heard hopefully the author turns this into a book so I can put this on my shelf. Ik it’s short but goddamn. And the narration was perfect. Definitely reading more from this author
This audio thing,if it would be in book form,would be just like house of leaves
BEST COSMIC HORROR I'VE HEARD IN A VERY LONG TIME, great job!!!!!
This is so good! Is there a sequel or prequel? Or something in the same universe?
Check the description, there are currently 11 entries in "The Threshold of Evil" series.
Just found you and subscribed! I really enjoy your narration! 👏 And to the author... great story!
WoW! No words for how amazing this is. I’m one that lives in the belief that death and destruction is less than a blink away so “just don’t think about it” but hearing it... it made me very sad. More than sad. It almost allowed me to slip back into depression. A place I once was for way too long and NEVER wanna return to. I knew I could end up there, I never thought listening to a story would be the thing that could take me there. Whoa! Even with that, this is still a completely fabulous story. Not one that I’ll ever listen to again. However, i’ll be checking out the other things this channel does
First story I’ve ever sat and listened to in my adult life. Wow! Thanks and subbed. Great job! Kind of feel bad for the Sun to be honest..ripping a huge wound into it like that in order to steal its energy, I’d be pissed too.
''I saw my skeleton through my hand that's how bright it was'' dude it was so bright you turned into a fucking cartoon.
It's still annoying to see someone like Mr Creeps getting like 40 thousand views. And V22 getting 3 or 4 thousand. Nothing against Mr Creeps, but come on. V22 is much more talented, and the story choice comparison, forget about it. Some of the stuff Mr Creeps reads sounds like it was written by some green freshman college student with absolutely no life experience.
To be fair, I never even went to college and I'm self-taught on top of that. I'm just happy my books are liked despite a few flaws here and there on my part.
@@itsJamesCaligo I've enjoyed your work. And college is overrated. I too was mostly self educated. Dropped out of highschool. No one took me serious. Went back, got my GED. At 25 I went to university. I was on top of the friggin world, like yeah, in your face bitch. No one ever thought I'd go to college. Aside from math I was right up with or ahead of all the egg heads who stayed in high school and got their diploma. Psst. Now look who's laughing. I double majored in literary-criticism and psychology. Ended up graduating with a respectable GPA. Did good, right? Not so fast. Now I'm over a hundred thousand in the hole. I work the front desk and bartend at an airport hotel in Milwaukee. So yeah, college is most definitely overrated. I could work the front desk and bartend at an airport hotel as a highschool dropout and I wouldn't be in debt up to my eyeballs.

Imagine the sun and existence itself giving you PTSD. Fucking brutal if you ask me
I got engrossed in the story, I forgot it was a guy reading his father's journal, so he can't be dead...meaning the explosion was an illusion...and this is about the to get WAY scarier, isn't it?
I forgot as well. 😂
This is my first time checking out your channel, and i gotta say, THAT WAS FANTASTIC. I love sci fi horror so this was also really good for me personally, thank you for making this wonderful video!
As soon as this video ended, a massive boom of thunder happened!! Pretty cool stuff!
That was another wonderful yarn spun by Mr Caligo and brought to life for us by V22. Stellar writing, engaging topics and terrifying implications.
I want to believe this is true, not the sun is not a being star stuff but a dad trying to scare the shit out of his son for kicks
I can’t stop listening to this story!! Cosmic horror at its best!! 👌🏽👌🏽
Ive been looking for more narrative audiobook style channels on YT for ages and the second I gave up on trying, this channel showed up.
Love the story, the narration, even the Lovecraftian illustration
This was a REALLY good story! Great word painting.
this was a amazing story, truly horrifying to think about if it acctually happened. would love to see this in a movie
I watched this a month ago and have not been able to stop thinking about it.
Finally! Some good cosmic horror!
This is one of the best stories I’ve listened to in a while. The similarities to Lovecraftian writing have already been mentioned in the comments, and it’s one of my favorite things about this story. I’ve been searching for something of this nature for a while.

if the people that made "Event horizon" made a tv show of this and didn't put in all the woke rubbish that are in tv shows now it would be brilliant.
Such a good story. Congratulations to the author and the person who read it. I loved it.

This was so well written I thought it was a subscribers actual real life story for a minute. Anyways, it was disturbing to say the least.
That made my Christmas even more enjoyable! Thank you for that story! This story is exciting because it makes the Sun more mysterious by the deliberate acts it takes against the entire Solar System. There has been a growing school of through in the spiritual community that the whole Universe is actually conscious and that our human senses limit what we perceive to be alive. The Sun having a consciousness is really no more strange than carbon-based bodies having consciousness. We really don't understand what this Universe is all about or why it exists.
