Night Falls: Bedtime Story, Sleep Sto...

Welcome to Night Falls 🌕🦌 a sleep podcast of calming bedtime stories for adults.

If your thoughts won’t settle and the night feels endless, this is where rest begins. Night Falls is a sleep podcast created to help you drift into peace through the gentle power of storytelling. With each soothing bedtime story, you’re invited to close your eyes, quiet your mind, and relax into a space where sleep comes easily.

Your guide is Geoffrey Newland, whose warm and calming voice welcomes you twice a week into the tranquil realm of Night Falls. It’s a place touched by starlight and softened by the sound of the wind in the trees, where stories rise like mist from the hills and embers glow beside a crackling campfire. In each episode, Geoffrey shares a sleep story or retells a peaceful tale drawn from memory and magic, carefully crafted to help you get sleepy and gently release the day.

Night Falls is designed especially for adults who struggle to sleep. Whether you live with insomnia or simply crave a calm and comforting end to your day, these bedtime stories for adults create a soothing bridge between wakefulness and rest. Every Sunday and Tuesday, a new story arrives to help you unwind, slow your breath, and find your way toward stillness.

Each episode begins with a soft introduction before easing into the heart of the story. Some journeys take you through quiet forests or peaceful gardens, while others wander into sleepy villages and old familiar fables. These are sleepy stories told with kindness and care, always moving gently in the direction of dreams.

More than just a sleep story podcast, Night Falls offers a sense of belonging to those who need company in the quiet hours. It’s a place where bedtime stories for grown-ups still hold the same comfort they did when we were young. Where soft voices and gentle rhythms help hush the noise of a long day. Where you can settle in and find your own perfect sleep cove by the falls.

The stories in Night Falls speak to those who are weary and wide awake, to those seeking something soft and steady to carry them into sleep. You might find echoes of the familiar here, the kind of bedtime stories and sleep stories you’ve come to love if you often relax and get sleepy while listening to a calm, immersive narrative.

Night Falls weaves together everything you need to rest. Like a hidden corner of a dream, it offers peace, patience, and a return to quiet. The world slows, the fire crackles low, and your breathing begins to match the rhythm of the tale.

These bedtime stories for grown-ups are here for you whenever you need them. All our sleep stories will meet you in the night, again and again, always ready to guide you back to rest. So close your eyes. Let your body grow heavy. Let the story carry you. This is your time to get sleepy. This is your bedtime story. This is Night Falls.
