HorrorBabble is one of the best narrators that exists.

Ian I'm addicted to Horrorbabble. Been waiting all week and I'm most certainly ready. 💀

[@Blayze1017]

Same here

[@taterpussy3825]

Here here!

[@joz6683]

A longer Horrorbabble video, I know these must require more work, but I do enjoy them. As always thanks to everyone involved for your tireless work.

[@paulcateiii]

can't wait for this year's 12 days of Christmas series

[@inisipisTV]

Oh yeah. That'll be good.

[@scottbubb2946]

I always like those a lot. In fact, I believe The Things That Came from Winter Hill is one of my all-time favorite stories.

[@Drifter2025]

I can't believe we are already there again!

[@thejigisup326]

Right? I'm steadily incorporating HB into a personal holiday tradition.

[@HorrorBabble]

We have a special lined up this year, but we won't be doing the 12 Days format -- hoping to explain in a little video before Xmas. Either way, the special is scheduled for Dec 19th.

[@jnightshade4379]

Yaaaaaaaay no "Warren is dead" intro!!! Great mix up, love the eerie old school music.

[@SharkAndDog]

Nice, one of my favs from Mr. Bloch. Thanks for the amazing content Ian!

[@Arwcwb]

I always get a quiet/expectant happiness whenever I see a timestamp approaching/exceeding one hour - looking forward to listening!

[@alexdavies7394]

Another winner from Robert Bloch and Ian Gordon!! Thanks for uploading.

[@benwrigley6176]

HorrorBabble is my go to. Has been for several years now. Really appreciate the quality of the work. Ben, Devon

[@HorrorBabble]

Thanks, Ben!

[@Dragon359]

Ahh, nothing like a horror story regardless of the time of year. Will look forward to this one!

[@andreasfilis9001]

What a fantastic story! I've listened twice already. Thanks, Ian. And now, straight for the winter tales collection. It is December now!

[@usedscar]

I am surprised how well Block writes! Guess I shouldn't be.

[@gregoryturner9530]

Fantastic Story Ian, Jen, and everyone @Horrorbabble! Thanks for all the entertainment!

[@littlebaron5573]

Ramping up for the holidays I see

[@awarningtothecuriouswerewolves]

I'd love to stay & listen, but I''m off to a Bloch Party at the Bates Motel -- Warren!...Perhaps Carter could join you...Manton?

[@br41nc3ll]

What a great story and fantastic narration 👏👏👏

[@blakmajk3512]

Excellence, Ian! 🐐

[@lazydog67]

Excellent tale. Thank you.

[@thejasminedragonmerchant6843]

Oh, this is WONDERFUL. I'm so glad for another long upload!

[@laurelsilberman5705]

This one was amazing! I love Robert Bloch. Such a master. I loved all the descriptions of the house and you did a fantastic performance, particularly of his final, tragic episode! ❤bravo.

[@Nanosuit37]

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

[@Cyn12345]

I finally have a chance to listen!! YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!

[@rayswoop4947]

Man I love this type of esoteric, folk horror, the writers of the past had the Best atmospheric stories that stuck with you. Thanks Ian.

[@PlasteredDragon]

Dude is a confessed murderer, I think I'll take him with me on a fishing trip in the wilderness alone. What could possibly go wrong?

[@Eris123451]

I believe that Canada is considered to be very good for that sort of thing at this time of year and in the spring.

[@tomcurran8470]

The next patient of the doctor in The Curse of the House is Norman Bates, LOL.

[@scoutrifle6827]

How do you keep finding all these stories I haven't read? Seriously, you're finding gold and reading it perfectly!

[@HorrorBabble]

We dig DEEP.

It's alright.

[@tomsenick2033p]

It's a crime that Robert Bloch's books are out of print

[@DrBrothBaist]

Oh a new track nice....

[@maunderjape8365]

Love the artwork, as usual.🖤

[@TraitofSiNN727]

I remember a old story by Robert Bloch that gave me a vivid mind for nearly a week by a story called "The Final Performance."

[@bromitethrip5289]

Bizarre, interesting story. Thumbs up

[@ginabeena6757]

Excellent, as always!

[@emanuelandersson8510]

Cant wait to come home tonight,light some candles and listen while lying in my sofa with wireless headphones and listen while closed eyes so i get the picture in my head,thanks Ian your voice is the best readers voice ive ever heard,its truely in line with David Attenborough IF not even better,atleast for horror reading

[@HorrorBabble]

Thank you!

[@Nerodrgn]

ah time for the next one, certainly it'll be another great listen

[@rosiemcnaughton9933]

[@beverlyamarantes9775]

Love love love this channel!!!!

[@CrowSkeleton]

This is hysterical all the way through...savage Scotsmen (from the poshest city in the country)! Druids! A guy who'll die if he sees a hill completely forgetting about the existence of the Netherlands and going to Burma instead! Comically terrible patient handling! Giggling whilst doing my tatting here, thank you for this.

[@countiblis1246]

I love how the first thing the Doctor does to calm him down is offer him a cigarette. "What you need is a good dose of heroin. All my patients swear by it". "Thanks Doc."

[@tomcurran8470]

Part of Banks' wanderings found him at the Bates Motel. Great story and narration as usual.

[@scoot479]

Love HorrorBabble! Please, fingers crossed for an other original Christmas story.

We have a special lined up -- Dec 19th this year.

[@HorrorBabble]

December 19th!

[@thejudgmentalcat]

Those darn hooks and beams ☠️

[@ukcats82]

The description of the house around 12:45 sounds a lot like the Amityville house, with the 2 windows that look like eyes...

[@danbernstein4694]

In light of continuing abscence of references to the morbidity of Warren, may we assume Warren has been "reanimated" ? One can always hope!

[@jonathanwpressman]

oh, nice!

[@eileenmorris8674]

That was excellent

[@amgroves76]

You are making me very fond of Robert Bloch

[@michaelsmyth3935]

Ya know, I am right with this one. Imagine the good Doctor, having to reevaluate the definition of reality. So certain of all he knew, until he wasn't. Great Story, and as always, great presentation.

[@1teela]

I would love to hear you do "Enoch" by Bloch!

[@usedscar]

"IT WAS MEARLY DARK AND THE DARK WAS OLD . . .." Wow

[@johnthorpe8341]

PLZ FORGIVE ME I AM NEW TO THIS CHANNEL-IAN HAS A VOICE THAT TAKES YOU RIGHT INTO THE STORY BUT IT WOULD IT BE TOO MUCH TO ASK IF SOME OF UR REPLIES ANALYSED FHE STORIES HE SO KINDLY SHARES WITH US THANK YOU

[@williamfawkes8379]

Oh Bobby! You are such a devious and delicious little monster.

[@davidwhite7294]

Why are there no readings of Two Gun Bob,s Skull Face on utube anymore. Could you do it Ian? or is it a copyrght issue ? It,s a great story, its setting and location is very similar to Lovecrafts The Horror in the Museum.

[@listerjne]

dude was so nervous about the weekend getaway that he went back to his abusive ex (the house he is being haunted by)

[@unclesam1756]

I absolutely hate it when they narrate every single thing they're seeing and every single thought they're having at the moment of "horror." It's just so comically ridiculous.
