Publisher's Summary

Headphones recommended. 

Allow yourself to relax as a loving maternal figure combs, brushes, and braids your hair, then pins it up with ribbons. Throughout, she warmly reminisces about her own childhood while admiring you and your hair in the mirror. Whisperlodge is a pioneering New York-based company that performs live ASMR events around the country. Their collaboration with us is the first time they've allowed their work to be recorded, and you can now experience the talent of their renowned ASMRtists at home. 

Due to its ability to deeply relax the mind and body, ASMR has become a source of calm and pleasure for millions. Listen and see if it triggers your autonomous sensory meridian response, a tingling sensation that typically begins on the scalp and moves down the back of the neck and upper spine.

Creepy AF

Couldn't get past first few minutes. I was immediately fully awake and my senses heightened ready for the daylights to be scared outta me. Not relaxing for me at all. Removed from device to prevent accidentally ever playing again lol.

Utterly terrifying — the stuff of nightmares

Listening to this before bed is sure to inspire nightmares. This is disturbing and sounds as if some whispering demon is beckoning you to the underworld to be tortured. The sounds are not soothing, but are disjointed and haunting. Like the demon also tapdances and hoses you down with a water hose before your impending demise. Do not recommend — even though it is free!

Yikes

This is cringe worthy, and this is coming from a lover of asmr. The whispering seems forced, the voice is obviously male. The name “Elizabeth” seems odd.

creepy!

I only made it 2 mins in when she started humming, I was done. This is too creepy.

Don't listen to it before bed!

While I wouldn't recommend going to sleep with this playing, it is worth a laugh to play for your friends. My mom and I listened to this together and laughed until we cried. We both felt like a serial killer was whispering in our ears. Maybe we just dont get ASMR, lol.

Everything was great untill ...

Everything about this was well the performer was very calming and the sounds were crisp and well recorded, But right after I dosed off a crazy loud blow dryer ruined the whole thing for me. I understand why the hairdryer is part of it but couldn't it have been turned way down in the edit?

Very Creepy!!

I had my earbuds in, and from the first whispered word, I was totally creeped out. The whispering was so odd and strange. Not something to fall asleep listening to, but if you need to stay awake maybe this will help.

Not for me!

I put this on to go to sleep and it scared the crap out of me! This would be a great horror audiobook. It was too disturbing for me to finish. I like some of the other sleep ones, but this is haunting.

Super creepy!

I like ASMR. But this does not work for me. It's a little like the start of a horror film.

CREEPY

I got through 30 sec and was so creeped and scared I couldn’t sleep. DO NOT RECOMMEND!
