Susan Hill's The Man in the Picture (a ghost story)

Support me on Ko-Fi: ko-fi.com/mysteriousmagpie
The Woman in Black isn't Susan Hill's only ghost story... this one was given a 'Book at Bedtime' reading on Radio 4. It's abridged, therefore, but still gripping... I have several other Susan Hill programmes on the channel, including two versions of The Woman in Black...
MYSTERIOUS MAGPIE is a channel devoted to ghost and horror stories on British radio, and to dark tales of every kind. I have another channel, MYSTICAL MAGPIE, which is all about stories of fantasy, mythology, and adventure: / @mysticalmagpie-wo5fn

Excellent. M.R. James -esque!

Very good! Well written - compelling, but I wonder (like one of the other comments) why people kept the picture? Is that part of its curse?! Thank you for posting 😊

[@annetteeggett]

Superb 👻

Very good reader - new actor reader for me. Yea!! Thanks much :) 🌒 the actress is also very good and she has a wonderful voice. 🌷

Nigel Anthony's very good - and something of a veteran of BBC radio productions... Ironically, though he had a TV career too I'm really not sure I'd recognise him until he spoke...

Why do these knuckleheads keep the picture? Jeez. Anyway, thank you for posting these programs!

[@ryoufex5949]

Exactly! I am like..... Just burn the damn picture already!

Chillingly reminiscent of my experiences while trying to get rid of a signed Trump coffee mug I'd bought from a goodwill shop for 50c.

You could have got Biden for 10c !

" Cambridge bachelors "..? Hmm. A euphemism ?
