The Victorian Ghost Story - Volume 3

Almost always when we think of Ghost Stories, we first think of those written by the Victorians. When you consider the depth of literary talent available over the extraordinary length of Queen Victoria’s reign, allied to the fascination with their all things spiritual on ‘the other side’, then perhaps it’s simply right place, right time. Whatever the reasons given or proffered the reality and known facts are that if you want a really good ghost story to bring that edge of chill, that foreboding of dread, that feeling that in an empty house we are not quite alone and that sometimes the sharp, sheer shock of what just happened is upon us then look no further than ‘The Victorian Ghost Story’ for your listening pleasure. 01 - The Victorian Ghost Story - An Introduction - Volume 3 02 - The Story of the RipplingTrain by Mary Louisa Molesworth 03 - The Last of Squire Ennismore by Charlotte Riddell 04 - At the End of the Passage by Rudyard Kipling 05 - To Let by B M Croker 06 - The Man of Science by Jerome K Jerome 05 - From The Dead by Edith Nesbit 08 - In the Séance Room by Lettice Galbraith 09 - Canon Alberic's Scrap-Book by M R James 10 - The Striding Place by Gertrude Atherton 11 - Jerry Bundler by W W Jacobs 12 - The Tomb of Sarah by F G Loring 13 - The Case of Vincent Pyrwhit by Barry Pain
