Күн бұрын

In the darkness of a Mediterranean night, the Osiris slices through the waves, carrying with it a passenger burdened by a haunting tale. Alastair Colvin, a man with a shadowed past, reluctantly shares his story of Thurnley Abbey, a Gothic estate nestled in the heart of rural England.
Whispered to be cursed and haunted, the abbey's notoriety has spread far and wide, striking fear into the hearts of locals and curiosity in the minds of the brave. As Colvin's narrative unfolds, his listener is drawn into a world where the line between the living and the dead blurs, and the abbey's dark secrets threaten to consume all who dare to uncover them.

Oh, daaaamn!!! One of my top horror tales!! In 1968, when I was 9 years old, my parents set up an Easter egg hunt for me. Apart from chocolate- and fondant-filled eggs other presents were interspersed. One was an LP, Wheatfield Soul by the Guess Who (still an album I like a lot), and a collection of sci-fi stories. But it was the third present that really grabbed me by the short hairs and set my tastes for the rest of my life. A collection of horror stories that was later very highly regarded: More Tales to Tremble By. Great, great collection: Sredni Vashtar by Saki, The Red Lodge by H. R. Wakefield, Casting the Runes by M. R. James, and many others. Unforgettable, shiny cover! Of them all, Thurnley Abbey chilled me the most. For months after reading it I could not make myself peek at the foot of my bed after dark, and going to the bathroom to pee in the wee small hours was a heart-pounding ordeal. And we lived in a 100+ year old house then, too, filled with uncanny noises.

A great story and a wonderful narration, Tony. Thank you. ❤ I enjoy your commentaries after the stories. I discovered where the line, 'You tried to get into the locked drawer today, didn't you?' came from. ('Psychomania' 1973.) What about the line, 'Everybody dies!' 🤔 Is that from a film, too? What is so terrifying about 'Thurnley Abbey' is that Colvin, for a few minutes, believes he has been the victim of a hoax. Then he discovers it was real! Great moment! 👍

Just as enjoyable,Tony, also this time around--and " real life" invades. Dog Nico also wants to join in Doggy Squabbles this time, ears pricked up eager to go. As every well-brought up Catholic girl knows, it is extremely RUDE not to address a nun ( "a Penguin" in giggly schoolgirl terms) alive or dead! All that pent up energy! Don' t worry. A nun would probably say the same thing herself. Very entertaining. Thank you!!!

It's interesting that in this story the ghastly specter doesn't DO much beyond exist and retrieve its chunk of bone.

You talked about the approaching dread. As best as I recall the very first fear I ever felt from fiction was the scene in Christmas Carol when all the bells in Scrooge’s house ring, the basement door crashes and the footsteps and chains slowly drag their way up the stairs. To this day I can’t read that scene or watch it in one of the old black and white film versions without feeling at least a memory of the deep shuddering chill it gave me as a child. Neither time or repetition has really dulled it much and it was every bit as good in this story. Whether you be some expert authority or not, your advice to milk the dread is excellent indeed. I always think fear is far more effective when it builds in increments. If it’s rushed then - if you’re lucky - what you get is shock which is a very different sensation. And shock, in addition to sometimes just being an annoyance, has a much shorter shelf life. It’s only going to work that once so why bother rereading it and savoring it if there’s really nothing to savor ? I can’t believe this is the first time I’ve ever come across this story but somehow it is. And I know I’ll always be glad to hear or read it again. And as always your reading is as good as it gets. You truly are an artist at storytelling and throw yourself fully into it, dragging us all kicking and screaming. Thank you for all your hard work and obvious delight in scaring the holy living sh-t out of us !

There are very few (to my knowledge) classic ghost stories where the protagonist chooses the "fight" response over "freeze and flight." That's what makes it prized to me. Reminds me of one Halloween there was a thunderous knock at the door. When I opened it, I was greeted by a horribly disfigured face and a person with knife in hand. I screamed for a few moments, then to my own surprise, I reached out, ripped the mask off and found it was none other than my aunt. That sight made me scream more!😅 Jasper, Jasper...be a lover not a fighter.❤😁

I like the commentaries. They're a treat for introverts: I get to hear somebody's ideas and reflections (and dogs!) without the attendant social anxiety. I like the purely immaterial ghost of the early type better than the more recent ooey-gooey kind of ghost, but I enjoyed this story. (While I'm thinking about it, I want to ask why, in the mult iple volumes of ghost stories my admired M. R. James wrote, there's hardly a single ghost? Plenty of animated dead, and one or two first-rate monsters, but apart from The Rose Garden and perhaps Mr. Humphrey's Inheritance, I don't remember any standard filmy-grey revenant spirits.) I suppose that's because the idea of the soul parted from the body after death meshes so well with Christian theology. There's something disagreeable about the bodily thrift of this creature's care to reclaim its scattered bones, though I admit I chuckled a bit at the thought of it sitting down with needle and thread to stitch together the shreds of its veil. This business of being sufficiently material to be detectable by touch cuts both ways. I felt just a little let down by the story's ending. I thought the windup of the events described would be that the apparition now followed Corwin (or Colvin?) around. Or perhaps we're intended to infer that it does so? I wonder. I'll tell you, though, what struck me most poignantly about the tale. It's Corwin's discomfort about making his request to the narrator to share his cabin, leading him to say "I'm a member of White's," to support his character for respectabllity. I felt quite overcome by the idea of a fear so shattering that it prompted me to make an admittedly fishy-sounding plea to a stranger. The shame of being driven by fear to put onesself in such an equivocal position simply adds the finishing stroke to the fear itself. Poor man!

It's an interesting note at the end, how most of us are caught up in the romance of having the money to go in extended mediterranean holidays, with time to read lots of books on famous ships and trains. It's probably not a bad thing, certainly no worse than going on holiday today and the only people I find who take political issue of that tend to be miserable, and most do divide between travelling for leisure and fun, vs travelling on behalf of a government to take over something. It reminds me of all the travelling in mystery stories like Poirot, there's always something happening on a Nile cruise or the Orient Express

Forgot my point aside from here's a thing that exists. I just think it's a neat, I probably first noticed it while young in lovecraft, but it delights me whenever I find more stories like it. Thanks for the reading!

You are a great narrator! I can't believe I also listened to your talking about your dogs etc😅. Can I contribute in anyway other than a monthly payment? I prefer to give an amount then don't have to think about it for a while, like a year😅.

Who was Nat Paynter, and what was his vampire story? The author throws in the reference as if he could count on the reader's knowing something about it, or at any rate having heard the name. I'm not specially a fan of vampire literature (Stoker wrote the book, in my view), but I'm always interested in an author's mention of another author. I haven't found anything about it on the internet, except links to Thurnley Abbey.

I'm relieved the nun got her skull back. Do you suppose she took her dust, as well? I'm thinking she did.

I love when the ghosts are skeletal corpse like. Unfortunately most ghost stories have, as you say, a more psychological scare factor but not physical. Do you have any tips for more in this vein?

You have to go to sort of 1950s-60s horror and then you get the physical monsters more.
