Ghostly Tales

By: Bram Stoker, Amelia B. Edwards, Sir Walter Scott, Jerome K. Jerome

Narrated by: Michael Maloney, Eleanor Bron, Andrew Sachs

Four spine-tingling short stories from masters of the genre, read by Michael Maloney, Eleanor Bron, and Andrew Sachs. 'The Phantom Coach' by Amelia B. Edwards; 'The Judge’s House' by Bram Stoker; 'The Tapestried Chamber' by Sir Walter Scott; 'The Man of Science' by Jerome K. Jerome.

In 'The Phantom Coach', a young man lost on the moors in a snowstorm takes refuge in a lonely farmhouse. Anxious not to be stranded overnight, he makes a fateful decision....

'The Tapestried Chamber' sees General Browne visiting his old friend Lord Woodville in his picturesque castle. But Browne’s night in the tapestried chamber is not to be a pleasant one.

'The Judge’s House' finds Malcolm Malcolmson searching for a quiet place to study for his exams. His choice of an isolated house previously owned by an evil hanging judge is to have terrible consequences....

Finally, in 'The Man of Science', the hate of one man and the fear of another lead to a dreadful revenge.

These four classic tales from the golden age of the ghost story are sure to induce a frisson of fear.

I Didn't Think I Would Like This Book, But

This is a much better set of stories than I anticipated. Classic horror stories by famous authors are complemented by superlative narrators.

I recommend this book.

Some good, some lacking

I enjoyed the majority of the stories, but one in particular was really not to my taste. The one with the evil judge. I rolled my eyes so hard on that one.

Excellently Told Classic Tales!

If you're looking for some classic horror tales read by superb narrators, this is your audiobook! Although only 2 hours 18 mins long, I find this a great purchase (I got it on one of the frequent sales). The narrator on the first two stories was my favourite, and I enjoyed The Phantom Coach the most of all of them with The Judge's House as runner-up. Check this one out if you're a fan of classic horror!

Perfect fall read

The narrators were superb and the store yes are classics for a reason. Wonderful. I will read this again and again.

More Ghostly Tales to Enjoy!

I loved the narrated performances in these classic ghost stories. And the background music really gave that haunting atmosphere that I enjoy in a good short tale of haunting!
