COMPLETE Ghost and Horror Story Collection Vol. 071 - rap

[Rapunzelina]

Oh, I saw your post in the other forum first. It's up to you! Since you have the story ready, you can make the deadline for the Christmas story collection, if you'd like to offer it there (if it has a Christmas element to it). Or you can offer it here In either case, watch out for the filenaming, and intro/outro.

[Asproule1984]

Will post it here. The only mention of Christmas is in the title.

Christmas Eve on a Haunted Hulk by Frank Cowper

Thank you, Aaron!
A couple of PL notes: a cough-repeat at 12:05-12:25 from "The prospect was not inviting [...]", and a stumble repeat at 23:19-23:25 from "But put those scoffers [...]"

"Dig Me No Grave" by Robert E. Howard

Also I would like to submit a thing to the christmas section if I can find it. I did a recording of Twas the night before Christmas I never got to upload.

[Rapunzelina]

The Christmas collection is here viewtopic.php?t=100389

but I see there's already a contribution of Twas the night before Christmas. If you'd like you can offer it to this month's poetry collection instead; we don't have it yet there: viewtopic.php?t=100639

(I can check your new upload a bit later)

[Asproule1984]

Will check later, thanks for that.

[Rapunzelina]

In the meantime, Hunted Hulk is PL OK!

Hey everyone, happy new year!

Here's my reading of one of my favourite classic scary stories. If you like this tale too and enjoy modern reworkings, I can definitely recommend two of my favourite 21st century novels: Mexican Gothic by Silvia Morena-Garcia, and What Moves the Dead by T. Kingfisher.

The Fall of the House of Usher
By Edgar Allen Poe
First published in 1839 in Burton's Gentleman's Magazine, then included in the collection Tales of the Grotesque and Arabesque in 1840

Thanks for the chance to be a part of something so great on so many levels

Best
