This is such a wonderful, enjoyable way to expose myself to new literature. I resent not having time to read, largely due to long and frequent car commutes, so this is great to listen to as I drive. I love Ian and Jennifer so much!! Thanks for such quality work!
I've been listening for a few months now, & noticed Ian's been uploading more & frequently lately. really impressive that the quality hasn't decreased one bit w/ the increased quantity
Thanks guys... we were experiencing a particularly quiet few weeks and so decided to up the output to 5 readings per week for 4 weeks. As of February 5th, we'll be back to 3 per week as normal. We're doing some pretty awesome stuff for Women in Horror Month (February) though, so hopefully there'll still be plenty to keep you entertained! Thanks again for listening, Ian
Wonderful, this is something new for me. Brilliant job. The subtle ambient sound in the background is a nice touch. I also enjoyed the voice differences you did for the different characters. Thank you very much.
Was recently lamenting that I ran out of stuff to listen to at work on this channel. So happy for this recent collection of uploads. Fantastic work to both yourself and Jennifer, Ian.
I was totally going to suggest some MR James stories (but wanted to wait a bit after Carnacki)! If you want to continue with more of his stories, Casting The Runes is superb!
Awesome story, great narration! I like how some of the background is divulged late in the story. Everything falls into place once we know this. I like this one!
"A Neighbour's Landmark" is a short story by M. R. James, from his collection, 'A Warning to the Curious'. It is often cited as a classic example of 'Sylvan Dread', the inexplicable fear of woods or forests.

I m an 80 yr. old African American and I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart, for giving me something to look forward to. Outstanding!
Thanks for listening!

Are you in the States Lauren? I can imagine audiobooks working a treat on some of those highways! Thanks for listening. :) Ian
Lauren Saloh I too have little time to actually read. Been listening to this channel at work every day

M R James is one of my favorite authors!
Linda Ciccoli i
Me too!.very I treating character when you look into him too

More M.R. James please!
Just because you can't see it doesn't mean there isn'y something in the woods watching.This reading was great,thank you.
I'm fairly new here and quite shocked at the frequency of your uploads ... I love it !

Thanks as always Jamie! Ian
you and M.R. James are a good pair!! thank-you!
Thanks for listening Scaredy Cat! He's a tough nut, but thoroughly enjoyable to narrate. Ian
Was recently lamenting that I ran out of stuff to listen to at work on this channel. So happy for this recent collection of uploads. Fantastic work to both yourself and Jennifer, Ian.
Thanks again Zrin! I hope there'll be enough for you when we drop back down to 3 readings per week! :) Ian
This is one of my favourite James stories. It's just so beautifully written.

Thanks for the tip again Harmon! I'll take a look in due course. Ian
I love MR James. He has such an understated approach...
Thank you so much for this - I love the stories of M. R. James but this is one I haven't come across before! Greatly appreciated!
This is definitely the sort of thing I could get into. I've always loved the forest so this strikes a singular chord with me.
Thanks Joshua. Looking forward to exploring further 'Sylvan Dread' tales in the near future. Ian
Man yall upload more than I can listen to. Thanks for everything. You and the rest do fantastic readings!
Thanks Aten! This month is particularly busy one, but typically we only post 3 times per week. Ian
Aten Akehnaton man not me !! Makes me happy !!! :-):-)
Another good one from M. R. James and HorrorBabble...Thanks for all your work.
Awesome story, great narration!

We're recording pretty much every day at the moment KB! We wouldn't do it if we didn't enjoy it though. :) Ian
HorrorBabble 😋
Thank you for having uploaded so many entertaining videos
Thank you so much.
nice works as always - M.R. James was a good choice for tonite
Cheers Paul! Ian
Paul Cate III or ANY nite..... lolol
I think this is one of his most effective.
I love the voice and quality you add to these. Is it possible to get some Ghost train style stories?
Thanks Adam - have you got any examples of the kind of thing you're referring to? Ian
Something kinda like this www.reddit.com/r/nosleep/comments/4vtvxl/ghost_train/
Or this
ua-cam.com/video/5ke63vecDkY/v-deo.html
Or lastly
The Signal man by Charles Dickens.
librivox.org/search?title=The+Signal-Man&author=Dickens&reader=&keywords=&genre_id=0&status=all&project_type=either&recorded_language=&sort_order=catalog_date&search_page=1&search_form=advanced
Well, we've already recorded The Signal-Man: ua-cam.com/video/70BtLzCT-JM/v-deo.html
I'll take a look at the others! Ian
Oh great I'll give it a listen tonight.
Warren takes no nonsense from talking trees.
Yeah , I love you .
What's the term you used at 0:26? "..[?] the fear of woods and forests..."
Sylvan Dread. There's an interesting article on the subject here: www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~pardos/ArchiveTrees.html
Long days and nights.xxx
I've heared stories of warlocks, murderers, blasphemers and unfaithful spouses being left behind as ghosts. But a financial fraud - that's a first...
Another fantastic reading, but the story itself I found to be rather dull.
Thanks Russ. In my opinion, this collection includes some of James' strongest works: ua-cam.com/video/NYT1awGBPXI/v-deo.html

Lol, like Old Ellis would have known
