Resumen del Editor
Welcome to Volume Five of one of the world's largest collections of high quality, classic horror short-story audiobooks. If you're at home, then get some logs ready and put on your most comfortable slippers, as we kick things off with Doug Bradley's well-researched introduction to the authors and stories featured in this volume.
Ambrose Bierce brings us "The Death of Halpin Frayser", an intriguing tale of a young man's increasingly spooky comings together with his mother, alive and dead.
The next story may well be Edgar Allan Poe's most famous, and it is certainly amongst his best; "The Fall of the House of Usher" is tour de force of classic horror writing brought to life as only Renegade can do it.
Following Poe's epic masterpiece is "How It Happened", a short and sweet piece from Arthur Conan Doyle about a runaway car and it's impact on the narrator's life.
Then, another great story from the imagination of Conan Doyle, "Lot No. 249". This epic story, at over 80 minutes in length, is the longest we've released so far. It is also acknowledged as the story that kicked off the malevolent mummy genre, inspiring many more stories and movies.
We round off this volume with Edgar Allan Poe's beautiful poem "For Annie", one of our favorites and a lovely, heartbreaking way to bring this volume to a close.
So throw those logs on the fire, turn off the lights and settle in to hear some of the worlds best short horror stories, read by one of the worlds best narrators... unless you're going to listen to the stories in the car, in which case please enjoy while driving safely.

Machen's novella The Great God Pan is often cited as one of Lovecraft's most notable influences. In it, Dr. Raymond's ultimate goal is to devise a way to open the mind of man so that he may experience all the world has to offer. He calls this "seeing the great god Pan". After much study of the human mind, he devises an experiment that involves minor brain surgery. He performs this experiment on a young woman named Mary, but when she awakens she is terrified and mentally crippled.

"Death is a dignitary who when he comes announced is to be received with formal manifestations of respect, even by those most familiar with him." This line was written by Ambrose Bierce in his short story An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge. Death by execution has historically been ritualized, perhaps to absolve those accomplishing the execution from guilt or blame.

Historia
The modern audience hasn't had a chance to truly appreciate the unknowing dread that readers would have felt when reading Bram Stoker's original 1897 manuscript. Most modern productions employ campiness or sound effects to try to bring back that gothic tension, but we've tried something different. By returning to Stoker's original storytelling structure - a series of letters and journal entries voiced by Jonathan Harker, Dr. Van Helsing, and other characters - with an all-star cast of narrators, we've sought to recapture its originally intended horror and power.

In The Time Machine, we follow the Time Traveller to the year 802,701 A.D.. He finds a golden race of small, soft, innocent people. But what is it that lurks in the dark shadows?

Historia
Many consider it to be Dennis Wheatley's finest work, which is praise indeed for this world beating novelist. It was a best seller in the 1930s when it first came out, full of 1930s atmosphere, skilfully written and well researched, too - although Wheatley never practiced magic himself, he met with many of the most famous occultists of his day to make the book as authentic as possible. In The Devil Rides Out, the Duke de Richleau and a friend find that one of their number is missing from a reunion, and it turns out that he has fallen under the influence of a black magic sect.

Chilling!
If you're a fan of weird fiction / horror, you can NOT go wrong here. Doug Bradley is, in my opinion, the best possible reader for tales of this (and maybe just about any...) sort. While he doesn't change his voice very much from character to character, due to inflections, you never really have trouble knowing which character he is speaking as.
As to the stories themselves, the only one I don't care for is "For Annie", and that's a fault of me not being a fan of poetry, not the poem it's self (well, I assume).
"The Death of Halpin Frayser" is, if a tad confusing, a very freaky tale. Dark and morbid.
"The Fall of the House of Usher" is...well, The Fall of the House of Usher. Very dark and, I believe, Poe's best work.
"How It Happened" might have been frightening in it time (a very VERY long time ago), but now it's really not. While the 'action' is good, the outcome is a bit predictable, and not quite terrifying. But, that makes it no less enjoyable, and actually a nice quick 'breather' between the darker tales.
"Lot No. 249"... Ah, my favorite. After having first heard the tale here, I've collected every audio, print and digital version I could get my hands on. This is a Mummy tale as it should be. It's this story that got me interested in Arthur Conan Doyle. And although I still could care less about Mr. Holmes, Doyle's dark fiction is some of my favorite.
As a final note, the music and ambient sounds used in parts of the story telling add a LOT to the over all feeling. If I could throw a few more stars on my rating, I would.

Love this series
During the book sale, I treated myself to all 13 of these wonderful productions and I've enjoyed them so much I can't tell you. This one may be my favorite, though.
Ambrose Bierce's masterful time-twisting in "The Death of Halpin Frayser" is unforgettable. Arthur Conan Doyle's story of the mummy is excellent.
And what more can be said for "The Fall of the House of Usher?" Every time I listen to Poe, I am stunned by his musical, poetical ear for language.
Poe is the master who stands above all others in imagination, originality, depth, and intelligence. He always leaves more to the imagination than he explains, and leaves the reader wanting more.
While I could do with a little less Lovecraft, I'd still recommend the series to anyone with a taste for the dark, Gothic, and supernatural. Bradley and company’s readings are outstanding, and worth listening to again and again.

Always excellent
I’ve been working my way through Doug Bradley’s Spinechillers since I met him back in March at HorrorHound Cincinnati. I haven’t been disappointed yet. The recording quality is great, he brings life to the characters, and they’ve selected a fantastic collection of short stories for each volume I’ve listened to so far. I highly recommend this series for any horror fans looking to dive into some classics.

A Great Collection of Classic Spooky Short Stories
This audio book is a continuation of the previous volume’s success, with a slight improvement. In addition to the introduction of the stories, there is now a little information on the authors. If this sounds unpleasant, you can skip this by simply starting chapter 2.
Amazing stories from well-known authors are combined into this Halloween treat for the ears. The narrator was perfectly chosen to create an eerie nature. This effect is further enhanced by subtle sound effects that match the events of the story. This audio book is was worth every penny, and will made any October feel more festive.

Love all of the Spinechillers volumes!

Perfectly Chilling
Doug Bradley has the perfect voice to skillfully bring this collection of short stories by various authors, chillingly to life. Occasional, minimal sound design adds atmosphere, and sets the stage for each of the sinister tales. His delivery sounds not so much like he’s reading to you than that he’s telling you a personal story that he knows intimately.
