@@ImaKhunt007DP is my favorite as well. There's something about his voice that pulls me into the story. After him, it's Joel and Mortis Media. All 3 are crazy good
This has made my day so much better, iv been travelling for over 12 hours today and finally got home to bed just in time to listen to your soothing voice, thank you Joel for your amazing effort. I don’t know what my nights would be without you now ❤️
If whoever wrote the 6th story is reading this, use google maps babe. I live in Louisiana and when we ride in the boat we open google maps up so we can see the different canals and you could also use it to get back to your starting point. There’s also a feature where you can download the map for offline usage.
Let's go! Friday night uploads (I'm from the UK) hit the best! No need to watch/hear the videos the next day! You've helped us all fall asleep lol and I take so much inspiration from you when it comes to stury narrations! Long may let's read continue!
Always listen to these while im doing school work or house chores. Incredibly good narration and vocal inflection. Joel, you have an amazing and soothing voice!
thank you so much for this! I listened to all your middle of nowhere videos the other day and was hoping you'd do more of these specifically. Just made my night especially as I'm sick. Have a great weekend and thanks for all the great uploads!💙
28:20 "who in gods name would drive around with essentially a life-like doll in their backseat?" 😂😂😂 I laughed when I heard this. Brought back memories from high school. I kept a mannequin when my grandparents shut down their flea market. I gave it to my friend and he drove everywhere with her. Periodically, I would find her legs or arm hanging out of the trunk.😂
So weird story, I was driving home from the mall with some friends and a super old car pulled up next to us at a stoplight. An elderly couple was driving but in their backseat were two dressed up skeletons, wigs and all. They we’re obviously the fake ones used in science classes as they were way too clean to be real, but needless to say we were all kind of weirded out. Someone told me that putting a mannequin or something like that in your backseat is a carpool tactic, but still.
Op of story 6 is so annoying, that story frustrates me to no end. That whole group harassed the guy into going out with the boat, but op acts like he could have just said no. He was saying no. But op and his horrible friends kept pushing the matter
Just realized I’ve been blocked by someone for no reason and now I’m overthinking lol thankyou for this video now I have a chance of falling to sleep 😂😂⚠️⚠️
listening to this while painting in an empty place, by myself. so you know...fun times! 😅 That story is what I always worry about painting by myself at night.
A hero on paper, but a liar in real life. This story is fiction, nobody was saved that night, and nobody was abducted or disrespected. Aint no way she just buzzes off with an unconscious person, after kicking a dustcloud toward one of two maniacs. She didnt think the ending through while writing and it shows
The girl in the last story was a real hero. That's what type of friends we really need not fake friends just to fit in. If people don't like me, oh well, i really don't care. Thank you for the video i really enjoyed these stories.👍

Let's read, I love your channel. I like these "Middle of Nowhere" stories. Not everybody does them. Please don't stop! I like the cover photo you used for this too. Thanks.❤❤
As a truck driver who’s therefore stuck in motor vehicles all day and a person with an active mind who has troubles sleeping let me say: God bless your kind hardworking soul and soothing voice sir. You definitely make my days and nights much more pleasant.
You have a terrific channel and a real talent for narrating a story. Glad there is no music or sound effects. Your story telling is truly captivating. Much better than many channels here on RUclips.
The first story made my blood run cold! When the dude told them "good call bud, very good call"... OMG it makes you wonder what would have happened if he HAD opened the door! It would have been something awful, I know that much.
@@g1rl_veteranwell it was nice how he was complimenting him, saying "good call." And he was friendly when he called him "Bud." So he might be cool, and I don't want to assume badly of him
I thank you for your stories i listen every morning after i pray .glad this style came back the stories as a child i would join my grandmother in the back yard . thank you
Ghost stories and skinwalkers are fun little stories to fall asleep to, but that story of the squatters in the house…truly terrifying. That’s what keeps me up at night. Great job as usual Let’s Read, please don’t ever stop because you are by far the best, and from the comments I read you are the most loved and appreciated 😎👍🏻
I know that this world is chalk full of stuff that actually happens that is stranger than fiction.....🤪...But theres just something about that last story that was just a bit off. 🤷♀️ Anyways. I know it's not due to the amazeballs READING. Cuz you ROCK MY DREAMS. Or rather you help me get to sleep. Thanks for being an awesome part of my day!❤😂❤😅❤😊 🤜💥🤛♥️🎊♥️🍾♥️🤗♥️🎁♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
The story of Marrisa and everything that happened ,I can completely see happening . My personality is very much like the girl who wrote this. I am from Las Vegas and spent a year in a small town in Alabama. People did things that I never even would have thought of.... the woman was so brave for how she handled the situation!!!
I’m from Alabama. What town did you live in? That’s the one story that didn’t seem so believable to me. The part where she kicks dirt in the guys face then carry’s an unconscious girl to the car and drives away. Is she like a body builder? A little dirt in your face isn’t going to buy you much time then wouldn’t be hard to catch body builder woman carrying a body lol.
Okay the last story has me confused. The girl that was unconscious said when she got there, Marissa was there already; yet old girl brought Marissa. So how was Marissa already there if she rode w/ ole girl to the barn? Obviously ole girl didn't see the girl get knocked unconscious and she said that she and Marissa walked up to the barn together; she said that Marissa was about a foot behind her. So how is that possible? I'm so very confused. Lol
Sounds like the girl who got hit rode out to the barn with the guy, and Marissa must have already been out there when she hit her. This must have happened earlier in the night, then Marissa made it back to ride with the 1st person character by 10pm. It is quite odd, or impressive, whichever way you want to look at it. Marissa was disrespected, wasted, taken home. All before the 1st person character (less wasted) woke up, she masterminded this plan to "party at a barn". She would have had to drive out there (over an hour) spend some time waiting/hitting this chick (say 30 min) drive back (add another hour), wait for 1st person character to pick her up (say 30 min). So the chick that got hit would have had to make it to the barn with the guy around 8pm or earlier. Marissa going to the barn and back twice means she spent over 4 hours in a car. Not sure about you, but my hangover from the night before would not have allowed that.
I just listened Again and it says that the girl said she had been seeing the guy for awhile and he was taking her to a party at a barn but when they got there Marissa was already there and hit her.
Please don’t stop making these, I have pretty bad insomnia and genuinely can’t sleep without listening to these! Thank you 🙏🏽
This has been part of my bedtime routine for 4 years. Bongs and Let's Read, fan goes on, dead to world 💤
@@Dmitrikrotchlikmyov, sounds like my nightly routine, as well.

@@Lyndy914 ew
I know it's crazy how much these have affected my sleep routine.
I've become dependent on them in order to fall asleep quickly and comfortably.

Joel is good but Darkness Prevails is every bit his equal.
Provide scientific proof please.

Oh Joel I just love your channel Thank you for being so consistent and absolutely amazing much ❤ from Virginia
Also, my homie used to roll around with a mannequin in his car so he could hit the carpool lane and skip the 7 dollar bridge toll 😂
Someone got caught doing that where I'm from
Are u fo rizzle??!!

Who else is listening while they hide a body in the woods?

Nice to listen at 4pm instead of 3 am. I always fall alseep on the first story and never get to hear the rest.
I'm actually listening to this right now at 3am 😂😂
Edited as I wrote it in 24 hour and it made a timestamp lmao
I always fall asleep, too, but then I listen again when I'm awake to actually hear the stories.
I absolutely love this channel ❤
It is all about the narration and delivery of the story presented.
Truly creepy people live among us . Never open a door for strangers . Great narrations buddy . I love your gentle voice .
"Good call bud. Very, very good call." Well he's polite and complimentary, he sounds like a nice guy. Worth opening the door for him, next time
❤ you are absolutely amazing , and always right on time. I love your voice, your channel. Just amazing.❤
Thank you Joel. You are the best!
Thank you for helping me through my depression ❤
I'm glad you found something that helps. Depression is awful 😮Sending hugs 🫂
