It was full of stories with different genres and it went as far as I could fall asleep with it playing as I loved it so much. I just redownloaded the app… and to see how much is changed and there isn’t as many horror stories and like all the horror apps being movies and only a few horror stories. I have to say this app sucks now. Your app was perfect before and I don’t know what you changed it. ### 4/5 — Great app *2025-11-12, version 2.1.7* I enjoyed some of the independent films & short stories…but I hope the developers fix the bugs for leaving reviews & ratings for the movies. I have trouble getting the typing & clicking on the star rating. ### 4/5 — Solid horror app *2025-08-19, version 2.1.5* I really like the app. I’m here for the stories so I wish there were more of that and less movies but I have had the app since Version 1 and still haven’t listened to all the stories so I’m not mad about it. I like the ambiance and variety of narration. It’s a little annoying it has some issues working with the sound on the control panel on Apple products sometimes but overall I’m really happy with it ### 4/5 — It’s good *2025-08-02, version 2.1.5* I’ve had this app for a few years now and I’ve been happy with it so far. It has had its down moments in the past but for the most part it is good. I love hearing scary stories from the different people who tell them and I love being able to watch movies on here as well. ### 4/5 — Solid horror app *2025-07-30, version 2.1.5* I’ve been subscribed to this app since the beginning. It’s had its ups and downs for me, but all in all there’s nothing else around like it. If I had friends that were into this kinda thing, I would definitely recommend it to them. I’m a daily listener and I literally can’t live without it. ### 4/5 — Good app *2025-07-29, version 2.1.5* I like chilling I love listening to creepy pastas before bed and this is a great option for a lot of my favorite narrators ### 4/5 — Great app lots of potential *2025-07-20, version 2.1.5* I enjoyed the app so far some good movies I love some of the short stories of the audio section but I wish the app gets fixed so I can leave a review on the movies or short stories ### 3/5 — Needs More *2025-06-05, version 2.1.4* There isn’t nearly enough content. To be completely frank, it’s painfully disappointing. I’ve wanted a decent horror streaming service for some time with no luck. Hopefully some adjustments are made, but judging by the other reviews I can’t have particularly high expectations ### 1/5 — Early sub day one, those days gone. *2025-05-13, version 2.1.3* Want you to sub, but let’s read offering Xmas medley. Being scared offering volumes. Not interested in movies etc, why did you guys need to mess up a good thing? ### 1/5 — I don't like this app it won't let me watch aney 🎥🍿I don't like this *2025-03-16, version 2.1.3* DON'T GET THIS ### 1/5 — Terrible App *2025-02-10, version 2.1.1* This app never works be ready to pay a $6 subscription to deal with stories not playing, not being able to change the ambient noise, can’t search stories, can’t filter stories, can’t search narrators, won’t cast unless you have screen mirroring available on your tv, can’t queue stories for constant listening, and an interface that loads just a black screen with the chilling logo in the top left corner half the time do yourself a favor and get YouTube premium so you can just listen the same narrators without ads it might be more in cost but the app actually works ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — SO BAD IT TOKE MY MONEY *2026-09-04, version 2.2.4* 1 star ### 1/5 — Creepypastas gone *2026-06-29, version 2.2.2* Seems like they’re all about selling novels and movies now. Can’t even find the creepypasta section. ### 1/5 — Worst customer service ever *2026-04-27, version 2.2.2* Supposedly someone from your team canceled my subscription after I was charged twice last year and now I have been charged again which has overdrafted my account, thus I was unable to go to my doctor since I had to pay a copay but was unable. So I ended up having a complete meltdown and panic attack and ended up at the er. Thank you for this. I have been very stressed out and this has sent me over the top. Refund my money and cancel for real this time or I will hire an attorney! ### 1/5 — Ripped Off Investors *2026-04-16, version 2.2.1* Disgraceful company that took money from investors and neglected to fulfill any of the promised investment perks. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2026-03-23, version 2.2.0* App will not stay open for even a second even after all troubleshooting steps taken. Very disappointing ### 1/5 — Crashing *2026-03-23, version 2.2.0* The app is crashing every time I go to launch it. I hope they fix it, I miss this app. ### 1/5 — Can’t watch movies *2026-02-16, version 2.1.9* You can’t watch movies on your phone with this! There is no way to make movies full screen. Tried toggling my rotation lock and deleting and re-installing the app. Instead, I’m stuck watching a movie in a tiny thumb nail on my iPhone pro max. Can’t even screen cast to my Apple TV. When I try that the app blocks me and tells me to stop casting! I paid $55 for an app that is complete trash! DON’T PAY FOR THIS APP! ### 1/5 — Doesn’t open *2025-09-29, version 2.1.6* I downloaded this all at the recommendation of Let’s Read via YouTube but it just doesn’t open. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled it several times but still nothing! Don’t waste the download! ### 1/5 — A mess *2025-06-26, version 2.1.5* Chilling Apparently doesn’t know what it is! Advertised all over spooky story sleep show channels YouTube, Dr Creepen on this app particularly jarring, yeh there is a line pal! Some of stories you read should just not be! You know! ### 1/5 — The horror is the inability to work *2025-06-20, version 2.1.5* I’ve subscribed to the year long subscription about ten months ago, it worked decently well for the first month or so and I took a break from the app for a while… year subscription still active may I remind you… about three months ago when I tried to get back in I kept getting errors about “not available in your area geo-blocked” so I was like okay it is what it is… just tried again and keep in mind subscription I paid 40 dollars for is still active until August… and now it’s saying I have no subscription and it needs to be paid for again… needless to say I was incredibly excited to use this app at first and loved the idea… but it has only disappointed me ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — I just downloaded because of Let's Read *2025-11-19, version 2.1.7* I do indeed like this app and the downloading part is clutch and I can listen to them when I'm not at home thank you guys🤘🤘🤘 ### 5/5 — Great to pair with Shudder *2025-09-13, version 2.1.5* I know for film Shudder is the main monster but I love having Chilling with me on the go, audio books in the car, spooky short stories at the gym, playing while I work, in a waiting room! As a fan and supporter of Chilling since the beginning I can tell you Chilling can keep the cozy spooky going in all facets of your life! Chilling gets you access to not just movies but all horror media! ### 5/5 — From Bailey! *2025-08-30, version 2.1.5* I absolutely love this! I also love the chance to win the Nintendo switch that is spectacular! ### 5/5 — Best app for stories *2025-08-27, version 2.1.5* I absolutely love this app, there are so many different things you could listen to there is truly something for everyone. I love true crime and I have yet to find a better app, but the creepy pasta stories are also amongst my favorite. I have recommended this app to every one of my friends that likes all things spooky like me 🤩🤩 ### 5/5 — My 1 year review *2025-08-20, version 2.1.5* This app is great if you love horror. There’s audio so you can listen to it while you try to sleep or during a long road trip. Great content. ### 5/5 — Versatile Horror App *2025-08-15, version 2.1.5* I personally believe this is one of the best apps you can get.. i listen to all sorts of things when i’m working or at home with my daughters. i can say that this app forces me to pay attention, they really outdid themselves. ### 5/5 — Solid App *2025-08-05, version 2.1.5* Been subscribed since the beginning and had a few rough patches, but honestly it’s one of the best apps out there. Highly recommend. ### 5/5 — Perfect *2025-07-29, version 2.1.5* Love this app mostly because my favorite person Dr. Creepen has such a great voice. His stories are never boring. ### 5/5 — Instantly Addictive *2024-05-21, version 2.0.16* I’ve been listening for over 24 hours since downloading this app. (I’m off work and my child is with their dad for their time together. So I have nothing important to do and can keep an earbud in) I usually spend my downtime listening to my favorite podcasts and story channels on YouTube. I heard of this app thanks to ads and I rarely thank ads. Anyway, this will definitely be my go to pls e for my off days. The variety and quality is amazing. The subscription fee isn’t bad and I don’t have to listen to a single ad. I can fall asleep listening to stories as if I were still being read to as a child. The sleep timer is a great bonus. The ambient sounds one can choose from is wonderful for nighttime listening. I have zero complaints at this point. Edit: As I said, I’m new to this app. I just now discovered that I get to watch films as well! Yeah, this is a lot of bang for your buck. I’ll definitely be switching to a yearly subscription as soon as possible. ### 5/5 — Please add the Arabic translation language *2024-04-14, version 2.0.15* Please add the Arabic translation language --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
