Picture Story Theatre
by Alexander Danner and Bill Duncan
Updates every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. The most recent episode
can be read here but the full story archive is found on ModernTales.com.
Picture Story Theatre is an ongoing anthology of short stories
inspired by picture books, fairy tales, and cartoons. Freely mixing
whimsy and horror, we strive to capture both the innocence and the
dread of childhood. Due to the frequently dark and sometimes violent
themes of some stories, PST is not intended for children, despite
appearances.
