Story begins at 00:01:20. John Bell takes a summer holiday on a friend's houseboat, where he puts aside his ghost hunting to help with the search for some stolen diamonds; but he soon finds himself diverted into investigating a Thames lock-keeper's story of haunting by an uncanny, ghostly voice echoing across the river... This story is one of a series featuring John Bell, Victorian adventurer and "ghost investigator", which originally appeared in Cassell's Magazine between June and November 1897. Other stories from this series are available to listen via this playlist: ua-cam.com/play/PLi95qAoufCZLC2ixFiWF3flPkm1JhyCnJ.html Note for returning listeners: This is a new recording of one of my earliest stories for the channel, a re-upload to mark the completion of the John Bell series in October 2023. It will also be available to listen shortly as a complete video with re-mastered audio of all six stories. Narrated/performed by Simon Stanhope, aka Bitesized Audio.

Thank you wholeheartedly. You brighten my days and bring smiles to my spirit. Winter is such a cold vacuum of air. It tries to suck all the life out of me. You slay this dragon for me.
Love the piano music at the beginning and end…it reminds me of my childhood in the ‘50s! Listen with Mother on the home service.😂 Like the stories too😊❤
