Ghosts on the wireless

BBC Radio 4 Extra is running a decent series of ghost stories by John Connolly. You can get them on the iPlayer here.

You can also hear a series of uncanny stories by the Scottish author Dorothy K. Haynes, which are running back to back with the Connollys. They are from the collection Thou Shalt Not Suffer A Witch, first published in 1949 with illustrations by Mervyn Peake - see below.

'Schalken the Painter' by Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu

A reading by yours truly of one of the all-time classics. I hope you enjoy it!  I'm told my voice sends people to sleep so maybe try it ...
