MR James: Tales Of The Supernatural Audiobook

"M R James is widely regarded as THE master of the ghost story. His stories abound with spectres skulking in the shrubbery, in shadowy corners and dark recesses. The Mezzotint is a whimsical and apparently supernatural tale of art on the move, a dying man devises a gruesome plan for testing his heirs in The Tractate Middoth, and something lurking under the bedclothes in Rats. These stories are read for you by Garard Green, who has worked extensively for the BBC and voiced more than 900 film and documentaries, and Richard Mitchley who has worked in theatres throughout Britain as well as the BBC and ITV and his own Mayfly Theatre company."

But soon enough they discover that the mystery is only just beginning and that nightmares can turn into reality.

Robert Louis Stevenson - Tales Of Terror

"The Short Stories Of Robert Louis Stevenson. The short story is often viewed as an inferior relation to the Novel. But it is an art in itself. To take a story and distil its essence into fewer pages while keeping character and plot rounded and driven is not an easy task. Many try and many fail. In this series we look at short stories from many of our most accomplished writers. Miniature masterpieces with a lot to say. In this volume we examine some of the short stories of Robert Louis Stevenson. In the Scottish canon to be placed alongside Burns is high praise indeed but it's a rightful place for one of Scotland's finest novelists. Born in 1850 he managed to cram much into his 44 years travelling widely to France, the United States, Samoa and the South Seas. Of course he is widely feted for his classics Dr Jeckyll & Mr Hyde, Treasure Island and poetry volumes such as A Child's Garden Of Verses. Here we concentrate on his short stories Olalla, The Body Snatchers and The Pavillion On The Links. All offer compelling examples of narration and suspense superbly reduced to their essence. Some of these stories are also available as an audiobook from our sister company Word Of Mouth. Many samples are at our youtube channel http://www.youtube.com/user/PortablePoetry?feature=mhee The full volume can be purchased from iTunes, Amazon and other digital stores. They are read for you by Richard Mitchley & Robbie McNab. Index Of Titles; The Body Snatcher; Olalla."

The Devil Rides Out

"The Devil Rides Out. Many consider it to be Dennis Wheatley's finest work which is praise indeed on his world beating novelist. It was a huge bestseller 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. Disbelieving at first, the Duke, his friends soon discover that magic and the powers of darkness are still alive and very real, as they fight a series of terrific earthly and occult battles to save their friend's soul. The book was filmed in the 1960s with Christopher Lee taking the lead role as the Duke and he he is back in splendid form as he narrates for your listening pleasure."
