Hi Luke. Please more videos with short stories and vocabulary explanations. On the one hand, you learn the formal language, on the other hand, you learn the everyday language when explaining vocabulary and you are so good at both!🤟🏻
Hi Luke, It is only yesterday that I came across your podcasts. A genuine pleasure to hear speaking english as if a friend was talking to us. Or sharing part of the afternoon, casually chattering with us in our living room. Today I listened to the short story you called The Invitation : I found it really thrilled and compelling ! Let me tell you why. As soon as the author drove through the countryside, signs of desolation appear - scattered here and there in his story : the poor reception of the phone, the old fashioned map he had to rely on, the roads without any names and the scarce post signs if any... at last this thickening sense to be away from any kind of civilisation... Lost ! Let's go further... The house completely covered in leaves, branches and overgrown trees : there we are ! At that stage, I felt we were heading to a kind of a split space-time story ! (which would have been fine, too) Ant then, comes this fairy-tale encounter. Now, imagine the old couple ; from their point of view a stranger has suddenly appeared in the night, a lonely young man lost in the remote countryside. Well,then : a warm -hearted welcome will confort him, for sure, and what's best than a nice stewed meal to lift his mind up ?! We would had been grateful to any parents if our beloved son - those room is shut since its departure (or death ?) - had recieved such warmful greetings. And since the lost young man showed signs of trouble or despair - he never stopped talking of his family and of a cousin whom he should meet here - We decided to keep him here over night - sound and safe - presuming that a return home would have been too hazardous in his state. The following development gave us reason - for as soon as we headed to our son's room - left empty since his departure - and getting it ready for him, our young fellow had vanished ! Disappeared in the thickness if the night ! What a weird feeling indeed ! For my part I do believe this story is true. It also can be seen as a metaphore of what this young man was then living. Il belongs to him and only he will find out. What is sure is that he still recalls it seven years later... Kind regards
This is just AMAZING! The best video ever! Everything is in one: super story, explanation (in normal human way), vocab, and grammar. It is a big job!!! Bravo! Thanks much, Luke, for this opportunity to learn English with you. I subscribed to your podcast - the smallest thing that I can do for you. Thank you very much, for your work! ❤
Hello, Luke! Thank you for the story. I think it's a great and a sad story. The guy came to the wrong house. They were not his aunt and uncle, but they seemed to be happy to have a visitor. Maybe they were very old people, maybe they had Alzheimer's disease. And they really didn't want him to leave them.
Right. I agree with you guys, the risks were possible in that house. Luckily, he felt an urge to escape from there. Such was a good feeling. The old couple might have been dangerous or might not, but a potential risk was hidden somewhere in the house.
Your pronunciation is incredible, you are one of the few people I understand perfectly with the level of English I have right now. Greetings from Cuba.
Hello there! Tonight's weather where I live, with its wind, thunderstorms, and rain, is setting the perfect mood for a creepy story. The wind is howling, thunder is rumbling , and rain is pouring down, creating a frightening atmosphere outside. And I love creepy stories 👀
Woow! That's was a good one. I'd like to add one more hypothesis: that they could be his auncle and aunt and made the call because they wanted to do something bad with him and lied that him didn't arrieved in there. Thank you for this story, Luke! 🇧🇷

Nice, very helpful. I have been listening to these english podcasts in the past two months and it's very helpful to improve my English. . I found that learning English from Story and News is the best way to improve the fluency. Great job, many thanks!!
Thanks a lot for sharing these enjoyable histories with us. It's really nice to listen to you, and moreover we learn a lot of you. Have a wonderful day! People like you deserve it 😊
I like your podcast for many reasons. I wouldn't enumerate them, but you simply have become my source of inspiration for acquiring the language the most practical way. Thanks very much for bringing us all very interesting episodes one after the other.
I am very pleased to sit listening to you Luke entertaining me and finding myself taking notes as l used to do some 30 years ago during english classes.
Great history!! And Great Podcast!! Thank you very much for it all!!! I enjoy and learn at the same time. When I discovered you , I said ooh now is possible! Yes, I can!. Hello from Barcelona❤
Thanks Luke! You are wonderful. It was a pleasure to be here with you during this time, listening, learning, laughing and imagining the meaning of the story...
Thank you, Luke. It was so useful. I find that the format of the short stories with your explanation is very good way to memorise new English words. Please keep doing it.
It is the first time I hear your podcast and I absolutily loved it . I learned a lot in a very pleasant way. You are an amazing teacher. Thank you. Regarding the storie, I think he was very clever to get away from there, because the night would bring the really scary part of it.
❤loved this episode. I do not find this story scaring. I would say puzzling, leaving questions about something unsaid by the narrator. Always a pleasure to hear your podcast 🎉
Thanks for helpful videos. I like your clear voice. I'm from Japan, and I had allergic to English. I didn't have confidence to use English, especially in grammar. You explain difficult words easier, so I can understand these stories.
Wow 😲! We've been in for a treat, Luke! A thousand thanks 🙏 for the podcast! I've loved 😍 this preternatural, beyond-the-grave, sort of Stephen-Kingy, Carpenter-ian short story, with a delicate touch of Hitchcock on it. I couldn't help but being all the time mulling over The Mist, Psychosis... An invigorating shot in the arm for starting the week! Wish you a fruitful one!
Hi Luke! Thank you very much for your podcast. It really helps me to learn English. There are a lot of interesting stories, interviews, visitors. I like your family and your relationship in it. It was very touching to listen your discussion with your wife and daughter when you gave a birth to your son. You are like my relatives from other country))). Be happy and thanks a lot!!!
Dear Luke: Thanks for your explanation in English. I am studing English since few months, and my teacher have sent me your video. It was amazing, entendible, with clarity and very interesting. You have an excellent communication and voice. Thank you a lot again :)
I've been listening to this story for the third time, I write down the most important and useful words and phrases. And it's really helpful for improving my English, I think. Anyway, Luke, I just wanted to say you that you are an incredible teacher. And you are the number one teacher for me. 🎉❤
I just want to say that I am watching this episode from Iraq. I would like to say that the most beautiful thing in this video is that when you made the sound of the door in the creepy houses 😂😂😂
Hi Luke, thank you very much for your interesting podcasts. The way you explain the meaning of the words, idioms and grammar is really amazing: so clear!!! I really like you pronunciation. My students enjoy them too. A great way to learn English! Not annoying at all!!!!Thank you ........Greetings from Italy
Hello Luke, thank you for another story! I like very much the way you teach english. With your stories I improoved noticeably my leastening skills!❤️❤️❤️
Hello Luke!!! This short story really captured my attention.I enjoyed it very much and besides, you are a very good teacher because of your way of teaching ,you are vey punctillious and I like it.Thanks a lot.
This old couple probably needed some company. The author imagined something scary but in fact there was nothing to be scared about. Too much imagination. Keep on the nice work.I really appreciate the way you present stories and the quality of your commentaries.
Thank you very much, Luke😊. Learning English through story was engaging as always. My favourite type of podcast on LEP. Do them more often, please 🙏 I wanted to add that your podcasts are included in the recommendation list for emproving listening skill, in the first place, by one popular English school in Russia - Inglex. This was exiting to find out 😉
I don't think it's a true story, and to tell the truth I did't feel scare, lol, but anyway I love to hear podcast, almost every morning I listen to your podcast on my way to office, and because of you, my listening skills especially hearing British accent is improve so much. God Bless You Luke.
Hi, Luke! The moment you read the first lines, I expected to hear something like the story about how a cousin lured the main character to his house and locked him in a room with an enormous wild very aggressive Brazilian cat. The story was written by Arthur Conan Doyle. Though I was mistaken, the story you read is not less tense, creepy or scary. And I don’t think he confused the address. Remember, he had never contacted them, let alone seen them, and all of a sudden, he got invited to their place . It looks very suspicious , to say the least. The character of your story was clever to follow his gut feeling, which saved his life. Thank you for all your episodes. And congratulations for your baby son. May he be a healthy child!
I listened to this story twice: during the day and late in the evening. The time of day affects reception! In the evening, the story seems more terrifying. And your comment on this story, Luke, makes it even scarier when you suggest what might have been an ingredient in the dish, what might have been in the locked room. Such uncertainty and ambiguity stimulates our imagination and evokes greater fear than some obvious bloodthirsty monster.😮
Thank you teacher Luke. I enjoyed the story. I cringed when his mom said his aunt called and said he never arrived. At first I thought he was rude. Later I was very happy to learn that he got a narrow escape. Thank you.
No doubt U are the best English teacher and ur podcast is great, I understood all story,it was easy for me. The English it was my favorite subject in school,when I was young Thank u a lot
Hi there, I find the story useful for English beginners. While learning a language, one needs entertainment! And this story allows to create mystery without a particular complicated plot. Listenning to your explanations is useful for all levels! You are great!Luke, I'm from Siberia and I wonder if you are going to make a video next year on any of W. S. Maugham's stories. It's going to be 150th anniversary of the writer. If you haven't had such plan, may I ask you to think of one😊?
Well, the story reminded me of the horror movie called "The Visit". Brother and sister go to their grandparents' house (they also have never seen them before) and then strange and scary things strart happening. *SPOILER BELOW* During a skype conversation with their mother the children find out that these people are not their real grandparents (the real ones were killed by these freaks)
Listening you makes me feel like I'm an English master... I can understand about 99.5% of what you say. A real pleasure!
Congratulations! I'm searching for this level of understanding.

Maybe they were very old people, maybe they had Alzheimer's disease. And they really didn't want him to leave them.
Yeah, that's what I also thought
they wanted to kill him and eat
Never be naive and trust people you don't know.
It's a matter of staying the whole night with them and being uncoscious of what is happening around you !!
Right. I agree with you guys, the risks were possible in that house. Luckily, he felt an urge to escape from there. Such was a good feeling. The old couple might have been dangerous or might not, but a potential risk was hidden somewhere in the house.
