Audiobooks Like Four Past Midnight

Four Past Midnight deploys James Woods, Tim Sample, Willem Dafoe, and Ken Howard across its four novellas — the variance in voice is itself part of the experience, with each narrator bringing different genre instincts to the horror they're delivering across a combined 30 hours. All ten picks share Stephen King's authorship, so this list is a deep-catalog King guide for listeners who have found the novella format his most efficient vehicle and want to follow the thread across short-fiction and full-length King titles alike.

How We Rank Audiobooks

Rankings are driven by listener ratings and review counts from Audible and Goodreads. Books with high ratings across a large number of listeners rank higher — a 4.5 with 50,000 ratings says more than a 4.8 with 200.

Unlike most book lists, we weight audiobook-specific factors: narrator performance, production quality, and how well a story translates to audio. A great book with a poor narration isn't a great audiobook.

We don't accept paid placements or prioritize new releases. These rankings reflect what listeners actually enjoy, not what's being promoted.

Rankings update periodically as new ratings come in and new titles are added to the collection.
