About this listen

In the preface of his renowned collection, The Ghost Stories of an Antiquary, the author boldly declares his disdain for benevolent ghosts and those with refined sensibilities. He finds a kindred spirit in this sentiment and takes it a step further, rejecting the notion of a natural explanation‚deeming it a disheartening anti-climax. What ensues in these tales is a chilling exploration of those who return, driven by pure malevolence. Here, no skeptical materialist can undermine the authenticity of their spectral presence.
