I am so grateful for your work. I'm expecting my first child at any moment now and I can't wait until he is old enough to enjoy these stories with me.

[@BitesizedAudio]

What a lovely comment, thank you. And such an exciting time, best of luck for the great adventure!

[@jdsteppenzyde]

Any update? I hope all is going great.

[@patriciajrs46]

Congratulations on your upcoming parenthood.

[@rajramnarine123]

Thank you for this touching story! Any update?

[@uslines]

Hope the baby is ok.

[@BarryHart-xo1oy]

Thank you for this delightful,charming ghost story by Ms. Edwards-slightly eerie yet also reassuring.

[@patriciajrs46]

Thank you mostly for introducing me to such wonderful authors. Though I studied English Literature 'noted' authors those classes didn't touch on the type of writing that I hoped to emulate, with the exception of Poe. Great story Simon. Thank you.

A particularly soothing voice that creates the imaginary perfect for an evening knitting by candle light.

*'standing between me & the sunset, like a shadow'* ... beautiful writing by *Edwards* & a wonderful clear narration by *Simon Stanhope.* This is a re~listen for me ... Thank You *Simon* TS 34:11

A pleasure to listen!! Thanks from Rheinstetten in Germany!

[@kpcraftster6580]

A delightful reading of another unfamiliar author - happily with several other of her stories read here as well!

[@melanieomer9186]

So happy I found this site! I love Victorian and Edwardian ghost dories! Great curation and, of course, the narration is flawless.

[@jdsteppenzyde]

Her description of the town is so realistic and evocative, I wonder if it is an actual place she visited.

[@anjaknatz7157]

You are right! Rheinfelden is an actual city, placed exactly like described in this story, to be sure.

[@BarryHart-xo1oy]

Very true.

[@mrs.cracker4622]

Wonderful story and perfect narration. Thank you so much Mr. Simon. It's always a pleasure.

[@juliehobbs7938]

Beautiful. I like Amelia Edwards very much.

[@carolined5923]

Great story and narration. Thank you.

[@wherami]

Wow this story ensnared me immediately. So well written and spoken to us.

[@EMDoe]

Thank you for your low and steady volume. There’s nothing worse than being jarred awake by a narrator who thinks loudness is required -because acting out all the voices and adding loud emphasis - is a requirement for being ‘entertaining.’ We want to hear a story , not a play. Thank you for not doing that. Your quiet steadiness is appreciated 😊

[@willmccormick947]

Exceptional. Thanks for this.

[@julielevinge266]

The number after the thumbs up was 666. That looked quite omnious; so I changed it to 667. Love your readings ❤

[@BitesizedAudio]

Appreciated, thank you!

[@rickmills4801]

I wonder if it's only in Germany that a Catholic Church's Confessional could call to mind a Sentry Box...

[@MoriartysDemon]

Time for Christmas ghost story

[@matthbhhh2439]

You ate talented

[@sharonwhiteley6510]

You are left wondering if you should be happy the priest died knowing he wasn't mad. Or mad at the ghastly apparition that continued to haunt the confessional.

[@rezzer7918]

U da best

[@meshulamfriedman3083]

יופי של סיפורת שפוגשים בה מלים אנגליות לא שגרתיות. כל כך שונה מהאנגלית של "הרשתות של ימינו..."

[@patriciajrs46]

The names of German things, places are so strange to the ear of an educated, though uneducated, American. Hmm
