HB has to be the hardest working cosmic horror channel on YT. Doing it down a man, too. Thank you Ian and Company!

[@paulcateiii]

good evening Ian and Jennifer - thanks for the great December playlist

[@MergeGirlXOXO]

This has been such a stressful season; I look forward ever night to laying down and listening to Horrorbabble. ❤❤❤ Is my relaxing "me time."

[@tamlandipper29]

Hope things improve.

Many thanks Ian!!!!:)

Interesting that in King's The Shining, room 217 is where Danny has an encounter.

[@elizabethlyons1066]

Room 237 was the room.

[@ColonelPanic007]

@@elizabethlyons1066 In the movie yes.

[@rileyrosewriter]

Delightfully creepy, thanks for sharing.

Today I have a large bowl of assorted nuts to enjoy the story! When I was young , a CBS radio program would play old radio Classics, including cereals and tails from the macabre. Your show is bringing back a fond nostalgia for me! Your work is extremely appreciated!

[@sub-jec-tiv]

Nuts!

[@Eris123451]

@@sub-jec-tiv There's always plenty of nuts here.

[@Driven2Beers]

Back in the 70s and 80s CBS had a radio show that had stories of mystery and the macabre. It was called (not surprisingly) _CBS Radio Mystery Theater_ and was hosted by actor E.G. Marshall. They're all available to stream for free on the web.

[@Richard-f4b4r]

@Driven2Beers Those were the best!

[@DavidSmith-sb2ix]

I was sitting in the bathtub listening to this story. Quite a coincidence.

[@sub-jec-tiv]

HorrorTub is the best

Horror Bubble?

[@BertieShaul-mn4qc]

Great Story Ian!❤❤🎉🎉😊😊

[@amandalee215]

Thank you I will enjoy this

[@CatEnthusiast-gr3cv]

What a coincidence. I've got court next week for my creeping fingers.

[@daveglass7396]

Many thanks again much appreciated x

[@robbabcock_]

Terrific story! I don't recall hearing of this author before!

[@tamlandipper29]

The setup reminded me of The Mystery of the Circular Chamber. I like a protagonist who just wants a break.

[@GrubbsandWyrm]

Love it❤ merry Christmas❤

[@Driven2Beers]

I remember the motels that used to have the beds with the "Magic Fingers" massage machines. "Creeping Fingers" sounds like something you'd find in an hourly rate motel whose mattress you _don't_ wanna run a black light over! 😳

[@rneustel388]

This is a great addition to the list of movies and stories about a haunted hotel room or apartment.

[@TUKByV1]

Excellent.

[@raylauderback5126]

A very enjoyable tale! Much appreciated!

[@Nanosuit37]

Well done. Thank you Mr Gordon and Horror Babble. Excellent as always. Until next time.

[@wolfieworby5653]

Love the return of the original intro. ❤

[@blurryface9597]

Awesome! Thank you for your work as always!

[@dzstoryteller]

Many thanks! That was great!

[@sub-jec-tiv]

Thanks again!

[@brownwhale5518]

Is it possible the nephew DIDN’T kill his Uncle and just fled in fright due to him seeing the mist drowning his Uncle?

[@philippel.9086]

Great story !! ❤

[@klaatubaradanikto6554]

Just one more reason to stick to showers!

[@miarencrowsdaughter6434]

Robert Bloch might beg to differ...

[@thurayya8905]

I like showers, myself. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!🎄

[@pastelclouds1922]

And that’s why you shouldn’t bully the hotel staff, lest they give you the haunted room.

[@ALBERTALIMOVICH]

can i ask a little help? 11:45 here i didn't understand what does 'growing warm' mean. then 'may have dozen'. as i can guess, in the first, the main character express his drowsiness, in the second - nostalgia. but this expressions just sounds strange for non-native. thank you in advance

[@ALBERTALIMOVICH]

13:30 actually, another question. 'peeling' perhaps point to leather chair, is that right guess?

[@ALBERTALIMOVICH]

23:14 and the last one. the nephew was 'hang' as part of public execution?

[@EricDaMAJ]

Warren sat in the comfy easy chair next to the crackling fireplace, head growing heavy and vision blurring. Finally his book fell into his lap and he nodded off. A sensitive sleeper, he started awake as a shadow loomed over him. _"YOU!"_ Warren gasped at the enormous white bearded man in the white fur trimmed red suit frowning down at him. The massive holiday apparition threw down a coffin in disgust, bellowing _"Dammit man! You're supposed to be DEAD!"_

[@NookoftheNorth]

Horrorbabble 1st Comment...Something Something poor Warren is some type of deadly Fool.

[@Eris123451]

Close enough.

[@traceygroninga27]

[@timthetoolpool]

As an avid lover of baths, I really wish I hadn't listened to this story. 😂

[@Kojoanna]

Good story ❤

[@timmy18135]

317! New hotel room to worry about!

[@dirkbruere]

I assume that the movie 1408 is based on this?

[@andreasfilis9001]

It would be better if he had slept in the station.

[@MrHarriskl18]

😅he called the rooms cheerless and repulsive ive never felt that strongly about a room thats a terrible room bro

[@jeremypearson6852]

317 or 1408?

[@ALBERTALIMOVICH]

this story should be a reverence to fourth silent hill :)

Comment.

[@kristinharrison674]

Not Christmas comment but can you please read 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea by Jules Verne? It was one of my most favourite books growing up and I think you would be a good narrator for this classic novel that sent chills thru me every time I read it. Being under the sea scares me but I am also fascinated by it 😅
