A Visit
by Shirley Jackson
Another haunted house story to continue our series. This time it is all strange and unnerving: odd women who live in the tower, visitors who turn out not to be real. Shirley Jackson writes another magnificent supernatural story.
My Niece Alison
by Tony Walker
One of my own. This story comes from my Horror Stories for Halloween collection. It takes place in a remote Welsh farmhouse on a windy, wet night. Just the sort of place you might expect to encounter an evil spirit.
The Night Wire
by H F Arnold
Well after midnight in a newsroom high above the city, a strange story comes tip-tapping in down the night wire. John Morgan, the night wire expert, turns the morse code into words, and the words reveal a mystery.
The Turn of the Screw
by Henry James
The Turn of the Screw is the book behind the Netflix series The Haunting of Bly Manor. Henry James’s The Turn of the Screw is said to be the best ghost story ever written. We have haunted house in Victorian England, weird children, an innocent young woman.
~Don’t Look Now~
by Daphne du Maurier
Don’t Look Now is a short story by Daphne Du Maurier that was made into the 1973 classic horror movie by Nicolas Roeg. This is a full length audiobook version of the classic tale of mysterious Venice.
