About this listen
Sand by Algernon Blackwood is a chilling work of early supernatural fiction that transforms the vast silence of the desert into a living nightmare. When a group of travelers ventures into an isolated, sun-scorched landscape, they begin to sense an unseen presence lurking beneath the endless dunes—something ancient, intelligent, and profoundly hostile to human life. As the desert tightens its grip, ordinary reality erodes, replaced by mounting dread and the terrifying suggestion that the sand itself is watching.
Blending psychological tension with cosmic horror, Blackwood masterfully evokes fear through atmosphere rather than spectacle. The story explores humanity’s insignificance when confronted with primordial forces beyond comprehension, using the desert as both setting and antagonist. Sparse, relentless, and deeply unsettling, Sand stands as a landmark of weird fiction and an essential listen for fans of H. P. Lovecraft, Arthur Machen, and classic supernatural horror.
