"From the Dark" is perfectly read. It shows that you have a connection to the story.
If you decide to read more parts, you can use this text if it's easier to read, hopefully no typos: https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Herbert_West:_Reanimator

I think that’s a recent anthology from the 1990s? Hathitrust has the story in 1873’s “Tales for Christmas Eve” which would be Public Domain:mycatmissesme wrote: ↑May 5th, 2020, 1:54 pm https://librivox.org/uploads/rapunzelina/ghohor038_truthwholetruth_broughton_ae_128kb.mp3

I read this one as well from a print copy of Victorian Ghost Stories, Ed Cox and Gilbert
I see there are several of her novels in Gutenberg--I wonder if they are as good as this story.
That's the key to the continued existence of Librivox! When we have fun, we come back for more
Thank you! That was helpful and I managed to find it in archive.org, which for me is a bit easier to navigate than hathitrustrafeball wrote: ↑May 5th, 2020, 5:31 pm

Her wikipedia article has a quote from Robert S. Hadji, saying that this was her cleverest story! It was quite chilling at the end, I got goose-bumps!mycatmissesme wrote: ↑May 5th, 2020, 1:54 pm

Yes, please! You can definitely do that for our collection! However, it will be quite a long recording. More than an hour final result, which might mean more than 4 hours of recording and editing work, depending on how flowing you read (I personally stumble quite a lot, have to do a lot of editing, that's why I don't record that muchhelenmiddlerasen wrote: ↑May 5th, 2020, 11:09 pm Hi, could I do HP Lovecrafts The shunned House? It's listed on project Gutenberg - I've just done my test recording and it's OK, so this will be my first proper go!
