Thanks for this. I needed a distraction from cleaning. A great reading. I really felt like I was at some pub hearing a bloke telling me an adventure he'd had. I had to go get a beer to accompany the tale.

I love the concept of groups of atavist pagan communities leftover in Britain. Very unnerving, and always makes me think of Christopher Lee as Lord Summer Isle in "The Wicker Man."

Fantastic, just as chilling, second time around, perfect for the early hours, before a day warning its arrival. Love the visual! As if you are sitting right across the table with a strong cup of brew, telling me about a horrifying event in your life. I must listen to it again. Am quite sure there are more details I have missed. you are a master storyteller, Tony. Thank you.

@@marg9131 Sorry; most people have never heard of it. A comment a little further down actually reveals exactly what happens in this story, so I didn't think comparing it to be a little like Harvest Home was a spoiler. After all, since you've read both, you can see that they are really only similar in theme not plot.

@@ClassicGhost Braz - look what I found!! Step by step instructions from a fellow Brit - his channel is called VEED STUDIO - kzbin.info/www/bejne/l4S8iJ2CoLFpitE. Now, I asked him whether or not you can select closed captions AFTER you've uploaded the video OR do you need to delete the video and start fresh, i.e., clicking up add subtitles (and select the language you want, English). I'm guessing you probably can't add subtitles AFTER you've downloaded the video. Don't you hate that? If that's the case, I wouldn't ask you to upload this story again, UNLESS you could do it easily. So hopefully his video helps. ;)

Hi Tony, love Hawkwind, their interpretation of The Machine Stops would be a perfect musical score for a fantastic Montreal Dance Troupe who's name, of course I can't recall. Maybe I can find them on YT. This story is an ex. of folk horror is it? I fell asleep first time! I still get sickened by S. Jackson's The Lottery and The Wickerman, the ending- now that's horrifying... Here again the language leaps of the page ! The movie I mentioned with a voice like your American accent, was Blood Creek. Didn't finish it, sorry too bloody and dumb. The horror genre at the movies is almost dead. Namaste. Z. SINISTER! finished the tale. SINISTER, PAGAN, BUT YOUR PODCAST WAS GREAT!

+anonymous anonymous this is folk horror . Appreciate you appreciating Hawkwind was for to see them In Manchester on midst but it’s been postponed. Going to London to see them In October. I am sitting on a bookshop with a coffee thinking about buying Starve Acre but realising I have far too many books

Really enjoyed this tale -- I listened to it today and of course there was no trace of the distortion that somewhat marred the livestream a couple days ago. After hearing that first reading, I left a comment, which you were good enough to respond to. Your reply came in my daily feed, but when I clicked on it, it disappeared. You may recall my mention of Walter de la Mare and "Out of the Deep" (not "From the Deep," my mistake.) I'd appreciate it if you could respond again, as there's no trace of comment or response now. Anyway, great reading of Wakefield, well worth a second listen. Thanks!

Yes, I deleted the live stream. I thought I'd done a de la mare. All Hallows is a classic but long-is. When I have more stamina I might do it
