 Immerse yourself. Savor the best storytelling from the greatest authors of the supernatural. The haunting language and brilliant rendition create an extraordinary atmosphere.

Includes:

"The Yellow Sign" by Robert W. Chambers: Using the rich gothic language of Poe, the author creates a similar shocking effect.

"The Oval Portrait" by Edgar Allan Poe: A painter exchanges the life of his young bride for the painted image.

"The Upper Berth" by F. Marion Crawford: Apparent suicides on board a ship lead to uncanny supernatural conclusions.

"An Occurence at Owl Creek Bridge" by Ambrose Bierce: One of the most famous short stories ever written.

Excellent

Performance and Stories were classically brilliant! I like to listen to these stories at night, so, turned the speed down to 9.0 and it was perfect.
