Story begins at 00:01:20. John Bell takes a summer holiday on a friend's houseboat, where he puts aside his ghost hunting to help with the search for some stolen diamonds; but he soon finds himself diverted into investigating a Thames lock-keeper's story of haunting by an uncanny, ghostly voice echoing across the river... This story is one of a series featuring John Bell, Victorian adventurer and "ghost investigator", which originally appeared in Cassell's Magazine between June and November 1897. Other stories from this series are available to listen via this playlist: kzbin.info/aero/PLi95qAoufCZLC2ixFiWF3flPkm1JhyCnJ Note for returning listeners: This is a new recording of one of my earliest stories for the channel, a re-upload to mark the completion of the John Bell series in October 2023. It will also be available to listen shortly as a complete video with re-mastered audio of all six stories. Narrated/performed by Simon Stanhope, aka Bitesized Audio.

Cool story! I like to listen to these stories on my drive home after work. I had a good chuckle during the "altercation" description. 😂

Thank you so much! YT doesn't allow links in the comments any more, but the link is available in the video description (below the play buttons on screen), or if you're not able to find that you can type in buymeacoffee dot com forward-slash bitesizedaudio. I hope that helps! Many thanks and best wishes
