Summary

A vivid, frightening novel collection of nine strange, dark, and mysterious stories, based on true events, from the mind behind the YouTube channel and hit MrBallen Podcast

John Allen, known popularly as “MrBallen,” has been enthralling audiences with his unique brand of storytelling ever since he burst onto the scene, covering strange and mysterious phenomena ranging from the unexplained screaming heard in parts of Nahanni Valley, the Kandahar Giant found in Afghanistan, UFOs appearing at a cattle ranch in Utah, and Allen’s own brush with the paranormal. Deeply researched and seriously compelling, the show rapidly gained a devoted fanbase for the raconteur himself and for the rarely-before-covered unsettling occurrences and true crimes that have taken place throughout the world.

In MrBallen Presents: Strange, Dark & Mysterious, Allen reveals the creepy underbelly of the human experience, charting bizarre and downright terrifying instances of the paranormal, the horrors of the natural world, and the danger of our own minds. With new, exclusive stories, this is a haunting collection filled with twists and surprises that will leave you thoroughly spooked.

Love the way Mr Ballen Tells Stories!

Been a huge Mr Ballen Fan for a long time! Couldn’t wait to read his book but not a huge fan of graphic novels so this was perfect like a more in depth dramatic reading of his podcasts! Would fully recommend to anyone who is a fan of the strange dark & mysterious and I hope he brings out more in the future! Until then back to his podcast & YouTube channel! :)

all repeated stories

I'm a huge Mr ballen fan but was very disappointed with this book. All the stories are from his YouTube or podcast, including 2 which he released on YouTube 2 weeks after this book was released!

Great stories but very short book

Love Mr Ballen but many of these are already on his YouTube channel and this book was quite short.
