Historia
When Louise finds out her parents have died, she dreads going home. She doesn’t want to leave her daughter with her ex and fly to Charleston. She doesn’t want to deal with her family home, stuffed to the rafters with the remnants of her father’s academic career and her mother’s lifelong obsession with puppets and dolls. She doesn’t want to learn how to live without the two people who knew and loved her best in the world. Most of all, she doesn’t want to deal with her brother, Mark, who never left their hometown, gets fired from one job after another, and resents her success.

Patricia Campbell's life has never felt smaller. Her ambitious husband is too busy to give her a goodbye kiss in the morning, her kids have their own lives, her senile mother-in-law needs constant care, and she's always a step behind on thank-you notes and her endless list of chores. The one thing she has to look forward to is her book club, a close-knit group of Charleston women united by their love of true crime and paperback fiction. At these meetings they're as likely to talk about the Manson family as they are marriage, motherhood, and neighborhood gossip.

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.

At the heart of these stories, as with all the best of Lovecraft’s work, is the belief that the Earth was once inhabited by powerful and evil gods, just waiting for the chance to recolonise their planet. Cthulhu is one such god, lurking deep beneath the sea until called into being by cult followers who – like all humans – know not what they do.

The brilliance of this story is in how a normal bureaucrat, a judge in this case, has a small accident that winds up gradually taking his life. As he deals with this incident, with hope at first and then despair, he comes to terms with his family, his life, and the mediocrities that we all suffer with, except for the exceptional few. This story rings a particularly poignant note for those in early middle age facing the next part of their lives. This story is considered Tolstoy's best.

Resumen del Editor
First published in 1917 by Alfred A. Knopf, this collection of Algernon Blackwood's short stories includes some of his most beloved classics:
"The Listener"
A reclusive, impoverished writer is delighted to find an inexpensive home in an old building at the heart of London; but he soon comes to understand why it's so cheap....
"Max Hensig: Bacteriologist and Murderer"
A tabloid newspaper reporter is assigned to cover the trial of a frightful psychotic murderer, and earns his implacable enmity. Then the murderer is set free, and the deadly cat-and-mouse game begins....
"The Willows"
A pair of adventurers on a canoe trip down the Danube discover, after stopping for the evening on a small island covered with tiny willow trees, that they are trespassers at the gate of unknown and hostile forces from beyond the Earth.
"The Insanity of Jones"
An mild-mannered clerk in a fire insurance office becomes convinced, through the intervention of the ghost of a deceased co-worker, that his manager was an official of the Spanish Inquisition who tortured him to death in a past life - so he buys a gun.
"The Dance of Death"
A young man, just diagnosed with a weak heart and feeling despondent about it, goes to a dance, where he meets the woman of his dreams. But is she real, or a ghost? And if she is a ghost, what is he?
"The Old Man of Visions"
The old man didn't talk much, but through him one could see beyond the veils of the material world. But he was careful to warn: "Should you seek to explain me to another, you must lose me beyond recall."
"May Day Eve"
A skeptical, materialistic physician, on the way to visit a dreamy folklore professor, strays from the road on May Day Eve and finds himself wandering helplessly into a strange and terrifying spirit world.
"Miss Slumbubble - and Claustrophobia"
Miss Daphne Slumbubble is on holiday when for no apparent reason a ghostly terror creeps into her soul, causing her to try to leap from a train. But why?

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.

He performs this experiment on a young woman named Mary, but when she awakens she is terrified and mentally crippled.

Historia
In a frozen, apocalyptic landscape, destruction abounds: great walls of ice overrun the world and secretive governments vie for control. Against this surreal, yet eerily familiar broken world, an unnamed narrator embarks on a hallucinatory quest for a strange and elusive "glass-girl" with silver hair. He crosses icy seas and frozen plains, searching ruined towns and ransacked rooms, all to free her from the grips of a tyrant known only as the warden and save her before the ice closes all around.

Great stories
I thought the stories were great, but I couldn’t finish listening. It was first published in 1917 and as soon as you listen, you will believe it. While the stories are very good, I found it I didn’t give it 100% concentration, I had difficulty following. The author was very descriptive and often goes on and on describing something. I understand that is the way things were written back then, it’s just not for me.

Classic Supernatural Stories
Stories of human reactions to supernatural conditions. A little like Poe, but toned down. Sometimes a hint of a Lovecraft type of hidden dimension.The narrator did a good job with slow developing material.

A ride through dusty old places
Well written, though not particularly relevant today. Like many early influences on the genre, the source material seems tame compared to what has been built on its shoulders. Glad I took the ride through dusty old places.

Old Timey Stories
You can definitely tell that these stories are old which is appealing. I wasn't super into the stories being told but I did enjoy listening to them. I know that doesn't make sense but I really enjoy the sound and feel of older stories. They are so different than today's stories and I really like to hear the different dialect, words spoken, and ideas presented. As with any group of stories there are some hits and misses. Overall I would say the stories are a bit tedious and
The narrator did a great job. I enjoyed his character voices and his overall tone fit quite well for this book. Hope to come across him more.

Classic Horror
What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?
English isn't my primary language and hence I wasn't familiar with the author's name and didn't know that these were all classic old timey stories. I do sometime like old stories. But the language style in this one was a little difficult to understand for me. The sentence structure and the dialect is a lot different than modern english, of course. This shouldn't be much of a problem for native speakers. And can be a learning opportunity for others who use English as second language.
What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?
I would think the narrator did a good job of voicing he classic characters. Not that I would know how people talked back then. But since the dialect used in this book is different than what I usually listen to, and it did sound charming in a way, I think the narrator deserves credit for that.
Any additional comments?
I received this audiobook for free from the author / narrator / publisher in exchange for an unbiased review.
