Resumen del Editor
Three classic tales from the golden age of the ghost story, read by Andrew Sachs, Laurel Lefkow and Steven Pacey.
1. Canon Alberic’s Scrapbook by M.R. James
2. The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman
3. The Beast with Five Fingers by W.F. Harvey
A collector of antiquities acquires a priceless ancient book in Canon Alberic’s Scrapbook - only to find that something evil hides within its pages.
A young wife becomes obsessed with the wallpaper in the room of her holiday home in The Yellow Wallpaper. A man is tormented by the embalmed hand of his deceased uncle in The Beast with Five Fingers. For the protagonists of these three supernatural stories, ghostly terror lurks beneath the surface of ordinary life, and reality can all too easily fray at the seams....
Evocatively read by three of our finest actors, and with atmospheric music, these eerie, enthralling tales are perfect listening for dark winter nights.

Historia
Stephen Greif and Gareth Armstrong read these classic ghost stories from two masters of the genre. These four suspenseful tales of the supernatural, from M. R. James and Charles Dickens, will keep you on the edge of your seat and leave you with a lingering sense of foreboding. In "The Tractate Middoth", librarian David Garrett has a terrifying encounter while searching for an obscure book, while in "Mr Testator's Visitation", a poor man 'borrows' some furniture from another man's cellar, never expecting the owner to return and claim it. Then, late one night, there is a knock upon his door....

Late Victorian London. When James Miller, the most respectable of Scottish businessmen, is pulled, dead, from the Thames, his daughter is drawn into an investigation which reveals a whole world of secrets and corruption. Alongside local detective Culley, Catriona’s search for her father’s killer leads all the way to the tragic truth behind the ghostly legend of The Darkwater Bride and the power of her deadly kiss. The Darkwater Bride combines the genres of the Victorian mystery thriller with the equally classic Victorian mode of the ghostly tale.

Mark Gatiss ( Sherlock, Doctor Who, Game of Thrones) reads chilling tales by the unsung master of the classic ghost story: E. F. Benson. There's nothing sinister about a London bus. Nothing supernatural could occur on a busy train platform. There's nothing terrifying about a little caterpillar. And a telephone, what could be scary about that? Don't be frightened of the dark corners of your room. Don't be alarmed by a sudden inexplicable chill.

Classics Are Always Best
Anyone who professes even a modicum of interest in, or appreciation for, the horror genre must pay homage to the progenitors of the classics. M.R. James is a true original, and W.F. Harvey is an unsung hero. And what a welcome surprise to find Mr. Steven Pacey here! Ever since the First Law trilogy by Abercrombie I've been a diehard Pacey fan. If for no other reason listen for Steven Pacey. Such a treat.

So frightening that my heart sped up!
The latter two stories in this collection are wonderful!
I have read a lot of classic ghost stories, from Dickens to MR James, and I can be picky. These two are some of the scariest I’ve ever heard!
The Yellow Wallpaper is dreadful in the best way. The author uses her real life experience of having been driven to a nervous breakdown by misguided mental health treatment. The way she writes about madness is as raw as a true account.
The Beast with Five Fingers is both a comedy and a horror story that reminds me very much of In the Dark by Edith Nesbit. Steven Pacey is a wonderful voice actor—the best! No one else could have brought to life the fatal/comedic struggle between man and critter so well.
