CREATOR’S NOTE: My recordings contain a mixture of audio narration, sound effects, and music…because that’s what I like to make and listen to. If you don’t personally like it you’re in luck. There are simply dozens and dozens of narrators who don’t do this. I do voices to help differentiate between characters and sometimes I change the pitch of my voice for female characters or children. You might not like it, but whenever I don’t do this, I’ve had complaints from listeners saying they can’t differentiate between characters. Damned if you do, damned if you don’t. I select stories that I like from my wide reading of vintage horror, supernatural and weird fiction. I don’t pretend that they are all masterpieces, but all, I believe, have something to recommend them. At least, I found something in them that resonated and which I thought was worth sharing.

A strange and melancholy tale by John Metcalfe. Hope you enjoy it.
This story is a masterpiece of loose ends and missing explanations.
I thought at first that I wasn't following it. Some judicial re-listening convinced me the author didn't want to be followed.

Thank you Jasper! I was needing something macabre to lift my spirts. The perfect tale for a grim and gloomy day. Excellent as always! 🐙
The best stories are those that make us think. Thank you for your brilliant narration.
A very strange tale from Mr Metcalfe, a writer sadly forgotten by many. I work near Cavendish Square, and will totally avoid all ANCIENT taxis. Thank you, as ever.
Ah Jasper,
Just as the story does, you lead us into that other world with a tincture of Oldfieldesk spookiness.
Thanks for the taxi ride into the grey.
Just what I needed for a stormy spring long weekend. Thank you for perfecting my Saturday, Mr. J.
This is the best thing to wake up to. Jasper, you are the King! Thanks 👍
You're welcome 👌
Oh, I love the spooky intro music!!!! Brilliant!
A sad and lonely sort of tale I thought, and so well read.
❤
Oh Hell Ye. And Then Some Jasper LeStrange. You Magician You..
Yes. A masterpiece. Your narration and the story. I love that feeling of being there in the story which you Jasper create. Thank You
the perfect sort of story for a bleak, rainy day. fits the mood perfectly. : )
Hell yea thanks Jasper 😅
Great story and narration!
This is excellent. Oh, this story is amazing. You find some great ones!
If I discuss the story, I will be harried a "story ruiner," so I will keep guessing and thinking on my own.
Great job, Jasper! Keep it up.
*Harried*
Great choice of almost forgotten wording!
@Story-Voracious66 love that word. I should have said, "harried as a story ruiner." I love many of the words that were once, but no longer, commonly used. Some of the modern synonyms do not do it for me.
I love old words like that! I also enjoy the usage of the word "grey" in the title. I am an American, but I am a bit of an Anglophile when it comes to word usage.
@@donaldmccleary9015
I've always been fond of the old words myself.
I also read Nevile Shute as a young girl, specifically because he used the word 'presently' a lot. I found sentences such as: "Presently, they came to a clearing" comforting, I don't know why.
Yeees, I was a strange child.... ❤
As an Australian Anglophile, I believe that we've all found an excellent aural niche to enjoy.
A truly mesmerising tale. Beautifully written and narrated. Melancholic, but with soft edges.
Many thanks from Ruth x
The haunting music score is just perfect & most excellent narration, befitting the title ... perfection *Jasper.* Will listen again as soon as darkness falls. It's 6: 06 where I be
An unexpected and unlooked for pleasure this evening…smashing 🙂♥️
Lovely atmosphere Jasper; your narration was perfect. Thank you!
LOVE the gong...chef's kiss 😘
Your narrative skill remains remarkable. Superb work, as always. Thank-you for posting.
Enjoyed very much 🫡
You are such an engaging narrator! Love the intonations and the touch of suspense/fear in your voice. Superb!
Thank you that's very kind 🙏
I began to listen, but I've been going through a bit of a patch, and my mind isn't properly on anything at the moment😢
I shall have a listen soon Jasper, as well as continuing my voyage through your archives ❤
Sorry to hear about your bad patch. Hopefully things look better on the other side 👍
Finally getting some time to listen 💜
Thanks I enjoyed this strange story
Thank you! I'm pleased to hear it. And thank you for the Super Thanks 🙏
Great story!
Thank you 😊
New yo this channel only just discovered with this tale. Excellent narration & great story. Just subscribed & looking forward to more of work. Brilliantly done!
Marvellous! Welcome to the channel 👋
Thanks!
Hey! Thanks for the Super Thanks. Very kind of you 🙏
I thought I wasn't listening properly. After re-listening to patches, I realized the author was engaging in a little deliberate obfuscation. When you are talking about slipping through the cracks of time, that may happen.
Absolutely. I had to read and re-read a few times. Metcalfe's stories are often deeply strange.
