3 Stories - Horror Stories in Letters Audiobook

"There is something about the number 3. The Ancient Greeks believed 3 was the perfect number, and in China 3 has always been a lucky number, and they know a thing or two. Most religions also have 3 this and 3 that and, of course, in these more modern times, three’s a crowd may be too many, except when it’s a ménage à trois. It seems good things usually come in threes.Whatever history and culture says WE think 3, a hat-trick of stories, is a great number to explore themes and literary avenues that classic authors were so adept at creating.From their pens to your your ears.01 - 3 Stories - Horror Stories in Diaries02 - The Horror of the Heights by Arthur Conan Doyle03 - The Horla by Guy de Maupassant04 - The Tomb of Sarah by F G Loring"

Wonder Of Women - Ghost Stories

"Let’s be clear. We are all equal under the law. However, even in these more modern times that is not an absolute and still remains a distant ambition for many. In the days when Britain ruled the waves and bestrode the world as its policeman and plunderer in chief it also subjugated half of its own people to second class status. Women were chattel and property. There were some exceptions based on wealth and birthright but for the overwhelming majority your lot was to fall in with the rules and do as you were told. Many did.But whilst male society sought to place obstacles in the path to equality, it could not deny their literary talents, which many times they circumvented by using male pseudonyms. However, the soaring sales of magazines and periodicals during the Victorian Age meant they had voracious appetites for literature, whatever the sex of its gender.Dozens of authors appeared to fill the need. Narratives had new ideas. Characters were emboldened by societal changes and the female voice taking responsibility.The women included here are talents that dazzle. Put them up against anyone and they rise to the top. Whether they remain with an avid readership today or faded to obscurity with the passing of the times their quality remains undimmed. 1 - Women of Wonder - Ghost Stories - An Introduction2 - Man Size In Marble by Edith Nesbit3 - The Eyes by Edith Wharton4 - The Story of Salome by Amelia Edwards5 - The Shadows on the Wall by Mary E Wilkins Freeman6 - A Spirit Elopement by Clotilde Graves7 - Since I Died by Elizabeth Stuart Phelps8 - Reality or Delusion by Mrs Ellen Wood9 - Was It An Illusion.

The Foundations of Fiction - Haunted House

"In this series we turn the pages of classic short stories to put together the literary building blocks of how a particular genre or theme began, how it built its foundations to become the well-loved and well-worn genre that it is today.Do authors have the same ideas at more or less the same time? Or can they sniff out an opportunity as to which way the tastes of an audience are moving. Success undoubtedly builds success and in literary terms we can more politely say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and the surest way to reach a hungry readership is to build on the fortune and flair of your literary colleagues. The dark forces of history have a way of settling in houses, usually large and rambling, but also small and nestled in a city, and from there all sorts of uneasy happenings begin. Authors have very playful imaginations, as well as some very disturbing ideas as they escalate the interactions between people and the growing source of terror that is with us and around us."

The Top 10 Short Stories - Brtitish Gothic

"Short stories have always been a sort of instant access into an author's brain, their soul and heart. A few pages can lift our lives into locations, people and experiences with a sweep of landscape, narration, feelings and emotions that is difficult to achieve elsewhere. In this series we try to offer up tried and trusted 'Top Tens' across many different themes and authors. But any anthology will immediately throw up the questions - Why that story? Why that author? The theme itself will form the boundaries for our stories which range from well-known classics, newly told, to stories that modern times have overlooked but perfectly exemplify the theme. Throughout the volume our authors whether of instant recognition or new to you are all leviathans of literature. Some you may disagree with but they will get you thinking; about our choices and about those you would have made. If this volume takes you on a path to discover more of these miniature masterpieces then we have all gained something. In this volume our authors present tales of dark, macabre, and disturbing deeds. From the pens of Robert Louis Stevenson, Arthur Machen, Amelia Edwards, Rhoda Broughton and many others come carefully crafted literary journeys designed to disrupt reality, jangle nerves and feed upon our souls. 1 - The Top 10 Short Stories - British Gothic - An Introduction 2 - Olalla - Part 1 by Robert Louis Stevenson 3 - Olalla - Part 2 by Robert Louis Stevenson 4 - The Tapestried Chamber by Walter Scott 5 - Count Magnus by M R James 6 - The Bishop of Hell by Marjorie Bowen 7 - The Vampire Maid by Hume Nisbet 8 - The Novel of the White Powder by Arthur Machen 9 - The Phantom Coach by Amelia Edwards 10 - The Monkey's Paw by W W Jacobs 11 - The Truth, the Whole Truth and Nothing But the Truth by Rhoda Broughton 12 - The Open Door - Part 1 by Margaret Oliphant 13 - The Open Door - Part 2 by Margaret Oliphant"

The Victorian Ghost Story - The Women

"Almost always when we think of Ghost Stories, we first think of those written by the Victorians. When you consider the depth of literary talent available over the extraordinary length of Queen Victoria's reign, allied to the fascination with their all things spiritual on 'the other side', then perhaps it's simply right place, right time. Whatever the reasons given or proffered the reality and known facts are that if you want a really good ghost story to bring that edge of chill, that foreboding of dread, that feeling that in an empty house we are not quite alone and that sometimes the sharp, sheer shock of what just happened is upon us then look no further than 'The Victorian Ghost Story' for your reading and listening pleasure. 01 - The Victorian Ghost Story - The Women - An Introduction 02 - The Old Nurse's Story by Elizabeth Gaskell 09 - The Last House in C Street by Mrs Craik 04 - The Cold Embrace by Mary Elizabeth Braddon 05 - The Truth, the Whole Truth and Nothing But the Truth by Rhoda Broughton 06 - Reality or Delusion by Mrs Ellen Wood 07 - Since I Died by Elizabeth Stuart Phelps 08 - Was It An Illusion.
