About this audiobook
Every town has old stories. Wanga’s have a habit of being true.
For generations, Wanga has kept the stories that never quite made it into the official records. A child insists something lives beneath the beds. A man watches the forest creep closer to his home. A cabin becomes a nightmare. A television stunt refuses to end. A painting changes when nobody is looking. A prison cell becomes impossibly crowded. A puzzle demands to be finished. And somewhere in an old hospital, an orderly is remembered far better than the paperwork says he should be.
Eight stories. Eight warnings. None completely provable—and none quite explainable.
Dark, unsettling and laced with Wanga’s trademark humour, Tales of Wanga: The Old Stories digs into the folklore a small Queensland town has carried for decades.
Because records preserve facts. Stories preserve what people were afraid to forget.
