Walls of the Dead Volume Two: A Haunted House Collection

[@blixten2928]

Just read an article on how exhausting it is for KZbinrs to constantly create content - and answer all comments, even supportive ones. Just want to say, take care of yourself, I dearly hope you are taking breaks and resting, and no need to respond to (or even read) my comments if you are tired!!

[@HorrorBabble]

We do our best!

Ian Gordon never sleeps. What are you talking about?

[@patrickkriegbaum2954]

I know this was 2yrs back, but I wanted to say how heartening it was to read this comment. It makes me feel better seeing people supporting people without expectations. I hope that you’re also doing okay and being kind to yourself wherever you are now. But again, sorry for the necro

[@caleshriver134]

Your voice acting is incredible! Especially the radio broadcast. Best channel on KZbin.

[@jamestrottman8466]

I know I'm two years late but these yarns are fantastic IAN you are the best 😊

[@georgemarquardt4435]

I remember how my skin crawled the first time I read The Picture in the House...your rendition served as an admirable reminder. The moment just before the lightning strike when he closes his eyes...😬

[@TheHappyhorus]

I am so grateful for these free access stories, which are as good as any I’ve found, thank you so much HorrorBabble.

"The mirror what?!" I don't know why, but that bit struck me as quite hilarious.

[@xabaya3294]

almost 3h of fantastic tails wonderfully narrated, just what you need when your the only one in the Lab all day. Thank you

[@hyperelliptik]

Aw yiss! I know what I'm doing for the next two+ hours while drawing some horror-themed art and listening to the rain outside.

Absolute favorite channel.

[@Rossion64]

The first story reminds me of the famous Walsingham family haunting in Georgia in the 1890s. Not that I was there.

[@siroctavianjefferspinlll]

Love this channel, it has become the best part of my nightly routine and never fails to help me drift off into very deep sleep. Always amazed at the work you do and props on great narration as always Ian!

[@itzybitzyspyder]

Every day that passes i am constantly reminded of Warren's untimely demise. Though I must confess that my own actions are the catalyst of my daily reminder. As if some flagellatory pennance for my own voyeuristic inclinations to hear the stories of others and reveling in the vicarious stimuli.

[@soulreaver1983]

Awesome! Thanks Ian hope you are keeping well! ☺

I’m impressed you chose not to censor some of the more… controversial words used in some of the stories.

[@jamiecameron7615]

An awesome collection!! Thank you very much!!!

[@tanyakerr3753]

Love these stories. 👍

[@Bbergster]

I hadn’t heard the white villa or the room in the tower. Both pretty scary. Nice surprise. Sometimes I wish u could mark the ones u have listened to. I get the titles all mixed up in my head. Thanks as always. Phantasmagorical delight!

[@JennyLane8666]

Hi Brandon. I always make sure to hit the "like" button after finishing a story. And comment on the great ones. That lets me know I've heard it and liked it. Hope that helps :)

[@Bbergster]

@@JennyLane8666 yes. Thank you. That would work. I just love the channel so much I instantly hit like. Or have done…. 🐝🐝

[@JennyLane8666]

@@Bbergster haha i get you... I binged everything on the channel when i discovered it recently, took me awhile but totally worth it. Now I'm giving every story a second listen. I also didn't realize Tony chats about the stories after he reads them so that's fun to hear too :D

[@BiffScooterIII]

Fascinating! The Believers by Robert Arthur talks about the concept of how a concentration of belief can create from ex nihilo, the first story I heard that played with this concept is actually Warhammer 40k with the Chaos gods, though admittedly slightly different (not beliefs, but emotions and actions that created the Ruinous Powers). I wonder if the creators of Warhammer borrowed from this concept from a story like this from 1909....

[@jimjohhnston9992]

Great selection The Believers is a particular personal Fave Thank you including it

[@mattheweverett3038]

Good stories!

[@blowitoutyourcunt7675]

Gramercy and thanks! Lovely collection and redux! Cheers mate!

[@ZephaniahL]

Mr. Gordon's tale is worthy to jostle Lovecraft's, and I don't say that lightly. It also offers evidence for how much slightly old-fashioned touches such as referring to "Miss Montague" rather than by her Christian name can set a mood. What a pity that it should be so far out of fashion in my United States to employ such salutations and honorifics -- different levels of formality lend a nice variegated layer, an onion skin of degrees of familiarity, that society would only benefit from, once more people recognize the need to return to them.

[@feralbluee]

your Karnacki is a bit more lively than the original and i really liked it a lot. it’s a great story - you’re such a good writer. thanks much. :) 🌷🧖🏼‍♀️

[@PhlashRockinmann]

Was this Carnacki story meant to be so funny, or is it just my own weirdness making it seem so?

[@AhriOfAstora]

I find Lovecraft more and more hard to listen, his self righteous protagonists and all the terrible sensibilities of his.

[@ArnoldCampbell]

Mmm good dreams for me tonight !

[@richardwilliams5387]

Damnit Jessup! Lol.

[@gusgone4527]

The prose may have been appealing to people from the late 19th C but not now. This is like listening to paint dry and about as entertaining.

I got busy with life throwing me a curveball and now that i’m back and smooth sailing I am so glad I’ve got your narrations to keep me chugging along Edit: your self written stories are still the best content on here. The one urban explorer found records one still freaks me right out lolol

[@HorrorBabble]

Welcome back -- and thank you!

[@donaldmccleary9015]

These are great stories! I love them all. Fantastic narration. The prologue of "The Picture in the House" is amazing. It is one of my favorite.

[@0therun1t21]

Harley Warren! Duh, I was racking my brain for that one. Finally, The Picture in the House! It always gets overlooked for some reason but I love it's unique atmosphere and perspective of the old dude's hobby, this one's seriously disturbing, no paranormal stuff needed.

[@ZannerBatman]

I love listening to these stories and I have no issue with ads at the beginning, but since I listen to these late at night, in bed, it's a real shocker to have an ad blaring at you in the middle of the the story and throughout. The volume of the ad is so much louder. To be honest, it ruins it for me. A warning would be good, at the beginning to let you know there's ads within.

[@HorrorBabble]

Hi Zanner. You can listen to all of our stuff on Bandcamp, ad-free. There's an app available for smartphones, etc, and it's entirely free to stream. Take a look: horrorbabble.bandcamp.com

[@ZannerBatman]

@@HorrorBabble Thank you so much! My intention wasn't to offend you. I LOVE your stories. I wrote this comment last night after I was jolted by the loudness of the advert inserted into the narration, and I suppose I was a little agitated. I would be more than happy to listen on Bandcamp (actually never heard of it before you mentioning it). Thank you so much, this is just what I'm looking for!!!

[@GrowAndThrive.]

The racist detail at 9:30 was a surprise. Lovecraft’s racism peeking through…?HorrorBabble, please select stories without this defect. Commenting because this is the second time that this channel has included a story containing this weakness.

Thanks, Ola! Fixed.

[@wmnoffaith1]

You know, I'd never heard about a mirror dimension. It's very strange but I actually filmed, by accident, an entity or angel coming out of my vanity mirror. The vanity is an antique slipper dresser from 1860 which belonged to my great-grandmother and has passed down to me. I had my laptop on record facing the doorway, with the vanity on the left of it against a wall. I left the room and shut the door. Within 3 seconds of my shutting the door, the laptop filmed an entity leaning forward out of the mirror. It was as tall as the ceiling, yet translucent and you can make out face and hair and clothing, yet see the woodwork through it. It turned towards the laptop , appears to have realized it was being filmed, and ducked back in. I know it sounds crazy but it's the clearest video of a full apparition I've ever seen. I've never uploaded it though, I know all the ghost shows would get a hold of it, because I know everyone will think it's a hoax. It looks too real to be convincing.

The first story describes the real Northeast Kingdom of Vermont. I was lucky enough to live there when these folks still existed. He mentioned the Puritans, but not the French.

[@MrsCaranAmy]

I enjoyed the whole collection. I thought the art work for the first story was striking. The description in the White Villa was beautiful. All of them were suspenseful. Awesome narration,Ian. Thank you very much.

[@rayswoop4947]

I would so love to finally hear you narrate, "The Man Whom The Trees Loved" I hope so one day, or maybe even do it in section parts, that'd be awesome too Ian😁
