Not Truly Dead

Three tales of the restless dead, by the master of the English ghost story. Performed by R.M. Lloyd Parry.

In Rats, a reading holiday in a quiet coastal inn is thrown into confusion by a horribly thin Something in the neighbouring room. In An Evening’s Entertainment, a blackberry thicket on a country lane conceals the site of a blasphemous and bloody ritual. The bookstacks of a University Library are host to an unnaturally strong smell of dust in The Tractate Middoth…

There are no safe spaces in the world of M.R. James.

“The perfect mix of humour, warmth, apprehension and profound unease. A most pleasing terror…” – The Sunday Times
