Notes from the Vault

by Phil Rossi
15

A blizzard cripples an isolated stretch of US Highway where freezing to death would be a mercy. An antique broker holds the internet in the palm of his hand and learns what really brought the system down. In the forests of upstate Connecticut, a pair of college students visit the site of legendary hauntings.Welcome to the Vault.Phil Rossi, author and twisted mind behind Crescent, brings you a collection of stories that will take you on a terror-fueled ride from the cold abyss of space to your own backyard. The anthology includes all 7 original Crescent Vignettes, new tales from the Crescent Universe, and many stories in between. "Phil Rossi has taken the podcast novel market by storm. His twisted visions of a Lovecraftian far-future reads like Phillip K. Dick meets David Seltzer. Someone is going make a ton of cash with this guy."--Scott Sigler, Best-selling author of Infected, Earthcore, and Ancestor"Phil [Rossi] combines classic space operatic sci-fi with horror in a way Hollywood and many authors have completely failed to do in past years."--Matt Wallace, two-time parsec-winning author of the Failed Cities Monologues and the short fiction collection the Next Fix.

    Repeat offender
    I’ve listened to many podcasts over many moons....im now returning to a few a the best. Was going to start with Crescent.... ahhhh but needed to actually begin with this! Thanks Phil 💫

    Phil Rossi is SCARY
    I'll start by saying that I've listened to everything from Sigler to Poe. I love the classic Lovecraft, Barker and King, and the new stuff from Cooley and Nosleep. But Rossi is the only author who has been able to really scare me with his writing. Some stories here and scenes from Crescent and Harvey are sure to give you chills. I wish he would write more.

    A must read!!!!!!

    Well done. Thank you Mr. Rossi
    His stories are a movie for my minds eye. A portal from the hum-drum, daily commute. His words, a warm blanket. I was always pleasantly surprised at the vivid, yet dark imagination of Mr. Rossi. Thank you sir for all of your hard work. First Harvey, now Notes, I am on the pathway to many a great story written by a very talented man. Don't pass this one up folks. Its a literary 5 course meal for the mind. Yum-yum.

    Great stuff!
    I really enjoyed Eden and frickin loved Crescent. Phil Rossi is in a class of very few writers (Scott Sigler, Mur Lafferty, Philippa Ballantine, JC Hutchins, etc.) that not only grabs your brain and shakes like a dog with a bunny rabbit and then makes you beg for more! I can't recommend "NOTES FROM THE VAULT" highly enough. My only quarrel with Rossi is that he doesn't write fast enough. I want more!!!

    Awesome
    I have to admit that I was a little skeptical at first, I've subscribed to some things that were said to be spooky, but they didn't deliver at all. This podiobook/podcast delivers on so many levels. The inclusion of music and sound effects definately put a more sinister atmosphere into these stories. Phil Rossi's story telling took me to a place so dark and demented I had to look around the room a few times to make sure I was still in the same place! I even found myself starting a little to some of the unexpected sound effects and interjections. It was in the middle of the day! This is how immersed I got! He definately needs to send more of these our way.
