Young American male voice, early 20s, with a natural, clear, slightly deep but youthful tone.
Speak at a slow pacing, around 150 words a minute, Sound like a real young American guy casually telling an interesting, slightly creepy story.
Use natural conversational intonation and realistic pitch variation. Let the pitch rise naturally at the end of questions when appropriate, just like in everyday American speech. Let it fall naturally at the end of statements. Emphasize important words subtly and use natural sentence rhythm.
Keep the overall delivery calm, slightly dry, and understated, but never robotic or completely flat. The voice should feel alive and human, with smooth transitions between sentences.
So, I was hiking in the woods, right? [pause] And I found this old, abandoned cabin. The door was ajar, swinging slowly in the wind. [pause] Kinda creepy, actually. [emphasis] Like something out of a movie. [pause] Do you ever get that feeling, when you know you shouldn't go inside, but you just [emphasis] have to? [pause] That's exactly how I felt.
