Reader Stephen Critchelow has spent a lifetime collecting and reading works like these and, with carefully chosen music, brings a strong sense of atmosphere to this recording. "The Signalman" provides a great listening experience for dark autumn evenings.

WOW

I picked up this for under 2 bucks because I'm a huge Charles Dickens reader. I was pleasantly surprised to find something which was a break from his long works without missing any of his wit and skill. I listened to it three straight times. It was well worth it.
Nice narration as well.

Great short story and narrator.

A very good short story read by a wonderful narrator. Stephen Critchlow’s talents makes this a story to be heard rather then read.

Ghost story.

If you think Charles Dickens only wrote one ghost story. Christmas Carrol. You would be wrong. The Signal Man is a great ghost story. It has a great surprise ending.
