Hope you’ll keep these up, there are only 3-4 guys doing really quality turn of the century horror readings on KZbin right now, would love to have one more!

Thanks so much for this lovely comment. It's become a Christmas tradition on this channel to do a spooky story reading. I'd love to do more but they don't get many views, sadly.

Lovely. Enjoyed that. Reminded me of Spine Chillers.

Thanks, Jamie! Glad you enjoyed it.

Thanks for your fireside reading, Mike! I enjoyed this. 👍 I was not familiar with the story. It did not end the way I was thinking it would. As I listened, I found myself expecting a Wicker Man type ending.

I know, right? It really should be him who gets sacrificed! I just like the story for its spooky village atmosphere, a posh Oxford don saying "what utter rot", and for giving me the chance to do my Somerset accent! Dash it, it's a curious caper and no mistake!

@@michaelbartlettfilm I like the story too. But it does seem like Hayling (sp?) should have been the one who got sacrificed. Or even better -- the posh Oxford don!

Ah, how cosy.

You'll have to supply your own fireplace, though
