    Ian Gordon is the best narrator ever. I'm a new subscriber to HorrorBabble and this guy has me hooked. Thanks for the stories!

      Not to snipe Ian or Horror Babble, but Wayne June Lovecraft is pretty good too

      I completely agree with you, Ian's voice is like no other and probably the reason I listen to these superb productions so much.

    Between this story, The Willows, and The Wendigo; what happened to Mr. Blackwood in the woods!?!?! It sounds like he's traumatized by some experience he had while camping!

    I keep coming across the odd story that I hadn't listened to, (or in this case read,) previously and a new to me, Blackwood is a treat; unexpected and unlookedfor.

    As someone who loves to test their skills on regular solo trips, Algernon's descriptive flavour of horror really vibes with me. Gonna have a couple downloaded next time I head out into the pines.

    another really well written story. this guy writes stories which have a sense of rising suspense, but are still based on normal people. the events build up at a normal pace and still you grip onto what’s evolving til all falls into place and the ending is a good one.
    Spoiler thing here -
    got him! heh heh heh :)
