I usually put on one of darkness prevails compilation videos from YouTube. The dude is a prolific poster and has probably hundreds of five plus hour long videos which are just audio with a screenshot for the video. I don't even particularly care about the spooky scary stories or creepypasta or whatever the hell it's called, but something about that dude's voice and the way he reads those stories just knocks me out. Although I can't recommend it for everybody because it could end up giving you really fucked up dreams.

I feel the same about Terrence McKenna. Something about his voice just sends me to sleep immediately.
