12 Hours of Victorian Ghost Stories! Read By Tony Walker

[@raziel5801]

i love the old literature, i'm not a prude, not against swearing. I actually do on a regular basis. What I love,here,is perfect grammar. The visualization. Am I just old and not able to hold to the past I love.

[@CrystalShip8899]

The way he reads is so wonderful, he really draws you in and makes you feel he is reading just to you.

[@OllieBrand-qo8pp]

I know exactly what you mean. I am 70 now and I tell my grandson (12) as much about my past and the world I grew up in. He’s always interested and asks lots of questions. I’m not a person who says everything in the ‘good’ old days were better because they certainly were not. But I do think there were things like principles, people looking out for each other, getting out on bikes,playing sports, reading and walking and so on, that sadly is lacking now.All of these stories come from a bygone age which are very important as well. I used to read ghost stories all the time,they kept me amused for hours.

[@tamsintarshish3905]

Don’t swear. It makes you sound like an illiterate person with a limited vocabulary.

[@AndreaDingbatt]

​@@tamsintarshish3905Who is swearing?! Bloody Hell, ~No feckin' swearing here!! No,none at all.😅

[@oilygr1n]

Yes! Seriously, I’m 67 and love listening to and reading these old tales. The prose is beautiful almost artistic. I believe that this is why Movies ( excellent as many are) of old classics such as “Lord of the Rings” etc, can disappoint those of us who grew up reading these treasures.

[@franken-pattern]

My soul is exhausted, and what a luxuriant corner of the internet my ears have slipped into...💯

[@maryeckel9682]

Isn't Tony's voice just like velvet?

[@ClaudiaRichmann]

Tony's ghost tales are a balm to my broken spirit. I've been listening to his shorter stories during the day. His voice calms the fear and despair so many of us in the States feel right now. Now this longer compilation is getting me through the night. Ironically, when I wake up in a cold sweat at 3 a.m. ghost stories (told in Tony's rich voice) provides succor. Thank you.

[@ClassicGhost]

Ghost stories are actually cosy. A bit like the Golden Age of detectives with all their murders are actually cosy.

[@JennyLane8666]

Beautifully put. Couldn't possibly say it better myself. Thank you once again, Tony, for being the voice that soothes the broken parts of us.

[@mar1lync9]

Exactly

[@SMichaelDeHart]

Mr. Tony, thank you, thank you, thank you!! You've given this 'old mans' heart and mind 12+ hours of fun in listening. I'm truly a fan of the old Edwardian and Victorian ghost stories, the most!! I enjoy everything you work hard at providing for us mere fan's, but imho... these are the best!!

[@ClassicGhost]

I did a poll of you remember and people wanted the victorian and edwardian ones. i’ll do an edwardian compilation at some point too. i’m very pleased you enjoyed it

[@SMichaelDeHart]

​@ClassicGhost I do recall. Sometimes, I forget all about the Community Page.

[@SMichaelDeHart]

​@ClassicGhost fyi... your time stamp is off for Shaulken the Painter. It's 7:01:39 not 7:21:19 in the description.

[@marshawargo7238]

​@@SMichaelDeHartTotally missed, The Old House In Voxall Walk, but the time stamps helped a lot❤!!! I was sad about nothing from Saki though😢!

[@usedscar]

Thank you Tony you're the favorite voice in my head! I really enjoy your educational talks at the ends too btw.

[@ClassicGhost]

Wow, thank you!

[@kellygiles7213]

Thanks

[@ClassicGhost]

thank you very much !

[@melaniehassler2405]

This is like finding buried treasure

[@Josephinejefferies]

Lovin working my way through these stories.

[@lunarbloom3587]

Thank you Tony! 😊

[@jbpeltier]

Doing my darnedest to turn a close friend of mine onto your stuff. I don't know if he gets that I'm not just enamored with classic horror - I also need my favorite narrator!

[@ClassicGhost]

thank you ! I should have some kind of affiliate program:)

[@susanmercurio1060]

I don't think that I can last for 12 hours, Tony, but my hat is off to you for carrying on.

[@marshawargo7238]

In the description he has provided time stamps so that if you fall asleep or have to answer the phone or door, you can find the story and pickup where you last remember❤!!! It is a bit wrong but close. He did forget to list, The Old House In Voxall Walk, but I had found it very helpful❤!!!

[@VanessaDavis-ri6jy]

Thanks so much for sharing!!!❤❤❤

[@leonaheraty3760]

I love Victorian ghost stories. Thanks so much, Tony! 👻

[@houseofvanity8]

[@darrylhunt1]

Finally got through all these. You’ve been like a constant companion over the last week or so Tony, whenever I had down time I would put this on. Great job and thank you for sharing.

[@ajcbng8289]

Woo hoo! 👏👏

[@nomansgoddess]

I just heard Mrs Zant And The Ghost and recalled myself (being widowed in 2022) praying to what ever Divine Force who would listen to please allow him to inhabit another body to fulfill his true purpose on Earth or to be my Spirit Guide so that I could accomplish alone with his protection my/our true purpose on Earth. I swear hand to the creator that I have never heard this story before. It brought a tear to my eye most definately

[@jodywho6696]

This is wonderful. Your voice is beautiful. The way you can keep the tone, yet switch from one to the other is magical. Thank you. ✨

[@ClassicGhost]

❤️

[@AndreaDingbatt]

Thank you so much Tony!! I'm stuck in bed,yet again, with the 'Flu and pneumonia in the left lung, and I can't sleep.... So, this is what will make this situation far better, as I can listen to your 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 narrations!! We've just got back from Wales, for my Uncle's funeral, it was bloody damp and cold, just like Cumbria, so we felt at home anyway, I'll shaddap and Listen to you!! Namasté 🙏 Andréa and Jasper. ...XxX.... Ps, Hopefully we'll be able to afford your Patreon later on this month, at least you will be able to afford those business cards and Tee-shirts with our gratitude printed on!! Haha.😅 (That was meant to be funny not sarcastic, which is how it might look?!)

[@ClassicGhost]

That's a bad thing, pneumonia.

[@AndreaDingbatt]

​@@ClassicGhostYes,it is!! Painful as well, Jasper Mutt is keeping me too warm 🥵 Bless the hairy little Brillo Pad!! Please accept my sincere apology if I seemed sarcastic,I was just trying for humour, but probably wide of the mark!!

[@MartiWilliams-r2z]

Captivating as always, Tony. Brilliant!♥♥♥

[@englishcanuck4930]

Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant!

Ohh, Poor Nip!!😢💔🐶

I love these old ghost story's helps me sleep ❤

[@ArchibaldBagge]

Thank you so much Tony. Beautiful read as usual.

[@bethanybody2201]

I’ve been really enjoying listening to you read these wonderful classic ghost stories, and I’ve liked the newer stuff as well. Your content is well curated. I’ve been listening oldest to newest so I’m just on stories posted about 2 years ago. I’d like to recommend Japanese ghost/horror stories retold by Lafcadio Hearn. My favorite is the Boy Who Drew Cats. I heard this story when I was a toddler from a horror stories record of my much older siblings. I’m sure that vinyl record started my love of classic horror tales.

[@ClassicGhost]

I have done one Lafcadio Hearn story. I’ve done a couple of non-Anglo stories but they tend to languish.

[@j.taylor3670]

Most enjoyable! Thank you from the USA 🗽

[@TinnyDee]

I slow the speed down to .075 speed and luxuriate. Thank you.

[@ClassicGhost]

And you are welcome and I am glad you do! Someone else turns me up to 1.25. I don't mind that either.

[@DSWL_]

😎👍🏻 thank you

[@nightowlcop]

Pure entertainment.....

[@girlillas]

From Old Town Alexandria, Virginia. The correct pronunciation is “Boo-wee” (Bowie knife). There is also a town in Maryland named Bowie. Tony, you are genius! I enjoy everything about your channel: the stories, your scholarship and your narration. Please forgive correction but I think you’d want to know the original pronunciation for ‘Bowie’.

[@girlillas]

Although considered a slave state, Alexandria was a free slave haven. Also Jim Bowie was a pioneer in the early days of the US and his knife is legendary. Love your work, Tony.

[@ClassicGhost]

this word has a history on this channel

[@tamsintarshish3905]

Hi Tony, FYI Americans pronounce Bowie, as Boo-Wee. The Knife is named for Colonel James Bowie of the Alamo fame.

[@ClassicGhost]

Some Americans do :)

[@tamsintarshish3905]

@@ClassicGhostall Americans do unless they don’t know who Bowie was. I grew up in the south and this is part of our History. Boowee is the correct pronunciation.

[@LucicPower]

Can we get a 12 hours of Jasper doing female American voices?

[@ClassicGhost]
