Every other person that try's to do this story. After listening to Simon read it. It just doesn't sound right. My absolute favorite ghost story thanks Simon.
I love this story, used to have it in a horror story compendium. It has always stayed with me, the descriptions of the knocks in the night, the beams of light, the globules, the figures and the eyes in the shadow...spine tinglingly evocative.
I truly enjoyed listening to each story and foolishly wished that they would never end. Thanks so much for allowing us, the public, to have access to such amazing quality of both audio and authorship. Great writers and readers. I can’t thank you enough.
I love your choices of classic ghost stories. Oh , the creative energy you bring to each and every reading ! Wonderful imagery is created in my minds eye.
I really, REALLY enjoy listening to these ghost stories when I’m going to sleep at night. I never fall asleep the first time thru a story tho, sometimes it’s the third or fourth time thru. The narrator here tells the story wonderfully, second only (imho) to Michael Hordern’s narration of these beautiful, old ghost stories. Thank you so much, I’m so happy I found you and I am anxiously awaiting all the stories to come.
Thank you so much Samantha, high praise indeed - I'm a great admirer of Michael Hordern. Fabulous, inimitable voice - the original voice of Paddington, too!
So pleased to discover this after revisiting a vinyl record of ghost stories titled Alfred Hitchcock Presents - Ghost Stories for Young People (Wonderland, 1967) that features a truncated version of this very tale. It’s easily found here on RUclips and was lovely to hear that from which the tale was originally sourced from. Very delightful.
I absolutely love ALL (these) Victorian ghost stories & thoroughly enjoy listening : a perfect accompaniment to a good nights slumber . Well done & Thank you .
Very kind of you! Yes, I suppose it's not to everyone's taste, although personally I don't really see the point of the "Dislike" button, I've never felt drawn to use it. When I don't like a video, I just don't "Like" it, if you see what I mean, but I suppose some people wish to express their feelings more directly! Appreciate your kind words, thanks Frances
I gather Bulwer-Lytton's reputation as a writer is not the highest today, but I think this is an interesting, well-written story, and still an influential one, even today, in the haunted-house genre. It sounds in part like an exploration that would have been done by one of those Victorian psychical societies that researched supernatural events. Enjoyed your excellent reading!
Alas, poor Fido, his master brought a pistol, yet forgot the salt. [sadface] Dog murder and that particularly Victorian terror of visible microbes aside, it's actually really cool in the...hmm, 'applied folklore' sense to see inverted wards (a lodestone and amber, the rowan 'circle' etc.) used as a curse conduit/amplification system. It's easy enough to throw a pentagram and some funny symbols in there and call it a day, so Bulwer-Lytton actually doing the research is a) going above and beyond in the days of 'research' starting with 'flick through 10,000 index cards at the library' and b) impressing nerds c.150 years after his death; I wish I could tell him it's appreciated. At any rate, for all its contemporary popularity I'd not heard this one before, so thanks for that.
This was a superb ghost story with so much detail and twists and turns. Nothing vague or simple going on here. AND it had a resolution! Well done and very well read!
As a teenager (some decades ago now) I came upon this story and loved it and much later I got to be interested in to the author and to stories in this vein. In this vein to the point of keeping the location almost the same. It was a pleasure to accidentally find this superb reading / rendering pf it and your channel is just a treasure trove to be dwelt into. At leisure? Not a chance. So you have a new subscriber (with bell on) and I something to listen forward to. Thank you. On all accounts.
Thank you so much for listening, and for your very kind comments. I hope you enjoy listening to the other stories - there's a mix of genres but mostly on the theme of mystery and suspense. Hoping to upload a couple more before Christmas, including another classic Victorian ghost story, so good to know you've rung the bell. Thanks for your support
This is my first time listening to this story and I'm currently now will be looking into more of Edward Bulwer-lytton stories. Thank you for the fantastic narration. Cheers.
I'll say it again- I'm SO pleased I found this channel- some old favourites, some I've not heard before-and all read so well. Trying to ration myself.....
How matter-of-factly the Victorians reported on the death of a child by neglect, even slandering its reputation posthumously by branding it mentally deranged. Shameful! But you did a wonderful job as always, Simon.
Anyone else that stumbles in here during the pandemic to discover this genius storyteller will be blessed with untold hours of entertainment. You are welcome.
@Dahlia Kamal I'm not sure... I just did a search and it appears I haven't received any other comments from you. I assume you didn't say anything too controversial?? Sometimes, for reasons I'm not very clear about, comments get put into a holding area, but I just looked there and there's nothing from you there either. Very strange. It has happened a couple of times previously where comments have just disappeared, perhaps just a glitch

I started listening to these before bed to take my mind off everything but they are so good that I kept listening to “just one more.” He really has a talent for content choice & narration.
Great stuff! Love these old tales/stories. I enjoy reading (and audiobook) mystery, suspense, psychological thriller of the current day...most of the time. However, I so greatly appreciate these old (Victorian era) stories as a very welcome respite from the blood, guts, murder, awful graphic violence scenes in most of these books (which is also why I'm a sucker for a Cozy Mystery). Thanks a bunch! Truly! peace.
I adore horror and ghost stories and do not spook easily. (So to speak). But this story creeped me out! Well written and the reading is so well executed. I cannot love this enough! 👻👻👻
You really do have such wonderful content, this is yet another old favourite of mine and your reading is very soothing to my sleepless self here at 3.32am this morning. Thank you.
An Exceptional Story thank you for your reading of it. I knew of the author not the story I am spending many splendid hours listening to your channel, much appreciated
Many thanks again for a wonderful story and excellent narration. Some years ago we had a much less dramatic but slightly similar experience leasing a house where the former occupants had hidden away paraphernalia related to their interests in the occult. Once we found and removed those objects the unpleasantness ceased.
Goodness, that does sound rather dramatic. Perhaps you should write up a story based on your experiences! Thanks again for listening and your kind feedback
I love these stories! I seem to have missed something with this one however. Everything about is perfect except that I don't get it. Who was the guy in the little room? Please help me understand and I'll happily listen to it again.
i just noticed the paise at the end of the story before the “titles” ( or whatever you’d call them). this is so, so appreciated. even audible leaves no pause at times and completely ruins the mood of the story. thanks much. hope things are getting better where you are. they are here in New York and it still feels weird, but welcome. 15 months is a long time!! 🌷☀️
Thanks Alexa, glad to know that it helps the mood, that was the idea. Funnily enough I'm preparing some recordings at the moment to go on Audible - I shall endeavour to leave a decent pause before the end credits!
Superbly read as ever, the tale gave me goosebumps, even though listening in daylight, & not as is my norm of listening to your reading's by lamplight sat in bed, doubt I would have slept a wink had I done so, the writer certainly knew how to capture his readers mind & emotions with his narrative
Don't know how this one slipped through the net - I have even started listening to your longer stories channel as thought I had gone through all the short ones. What a treat, thank you.
Thanks Andy. I've only got this channel (that I know of!), do I have a sound-alike somewhere? Actually, I'm hoping to start doing a few longer stories in the coming months, as and when I can fit them in. Lots more short stories on my list too though. Thanks so much for your kind comments, best wishes
@@BitesizedAudio I shall pop through my history I know 'Obselete oddity' has at least one other channel and folk who like your content like his too, despite the different styles.
What is scary about this is there are aspects in this story that do occur in investigations into haunting's. Great story and of course like all the stories so well narrated by the narrator. 👻👻👻👻
This must be one of the best in this series! And how you bring to life the story though it is but the voice of only one man reading it. Thoroughly enjoyed it, thank you very much.
Much thanks good sir for your excellent readings. This was so enjoyable. I'm listening to you while working on a deck project and it makes the detailed work go by so pleasantly. Blessings.
A fine reading of a classic tale by Lord Bulwer Lytton, a confirmed favourite along with his famous occult novels 'Zanoni' and 'A Strange Story'. Bulwer Lytton met the French Magus Eliphas Levi, evoked spirits at Knebworth and was deeply versed in medieval occult and Rosicrucian lore. There are 2 versions of this tale, one somewhat truncated. The ignorant impute a hackneyed style to Bulwer Lytton - an extremely ill-informed opinion as his prose style is actually vigorous, vivid and highly readable even in the 21st century.
There's a slightly expanded version of this story by Lord BL - it closes with him encountering the adept portrayed in the miniature, in a London gentleman's club. A little more about the sinister phenomena in the house is explained
What a fascinating and powerful story, magnificently narrated! I've enjoyed The Coming Race (1871), and been meaning to try Zanoni (1842) for years, but if I ever heard of this story, I had no sense of its excellence - thank you!
Rather sad, that sentence about the letters tied with the faded yellow ribbon, that as he was descending from the attic, felt a hand grasp his wrist and a weak tug at the letters... he ought to have given them back.
I worked for the Lytton family-Edward B was a seriously odd cove, who had his feisty Irish wife Rosina Wheeler locked up in an asylum because she was too independent!
what a joy it must have been to have lived in the victorian colonial period before radio and television and computers....a time when the reading of books and attending live theater was the chief form of education and entertainment.....just listening to this story is more compelling and spellbinding than the last 50 movies i've watched which bored me to tears
As I said in my previous post I have discovered this channel in the past week..the stories are excellent and the narrating superb. I don't want to stop listening.....ever. way better than the boob tube.
I really did enjoy your story, with the very ending , Well I wasn't too keen of the very ending. I will most definitely look for to your other stories, To the people that are providing this, I like to say thank you... It was very enjoyable.... Care
This is my second time listening to the story and I cannot begin to explain to you of how much I enjoyed it even that much more this time. You most definitely have me as a lifetime friend and member to your wonderful Channel.. Thank you again,,, and take care

@@simonelefebvre2523 I agree as well. Plus sometimes there is s new one.

Wonderfully literate English enhanced by superb narration. How impoverished the English language has become over the past 150 years.
what utter nonsense, worldwide the english languages evolution is constant
@@chungokhowb2957
No it hasn't. Have you read any recent literature? The language is hackneyed, full of platitudes and as boring as hell!
@@chungokhowb2957
You can't even write a grammatically correct sentence yourself.

So true !
For me who only went to a prep. school at Harrow on the Hill (Orley Farm ), I find that that this is all too common now !
I love your choices of classic ghost stories. Oh , the creative energy you bring to each and every reading ! Wonderful imagery is created in my minds eye.
As soon as it turned up, I thought "Damn, the dog's gonna die".

My thoughts exactly!
For me I fall asleep the first time and need to listen several times before I hear the whole thing. Simon’s voice is very soothing.

I think I had that same vinyl record. Did yours also have Saki's 'The Open Window'?
@@miarencrowsdaughter6434 Yes it did. That’s one of my favorites with the cheeky daughter trolling Mr. Knuttle.
You have the perfect voice for these and you execute them so smoothly, its a real find...love them. thx G
I never thought that I would listen to something like this, nevermind enjoy them so much. Thank you.
Oh, the poor dog. I'm in total agreement with him, it was his fault.
Apart from that, so much suspense, such a great story. Thankyou!
This story sent chills down my spine. It's perfect with a cup of tea and with some knitting. Thank you
This story never gets old . On top of that no one come close to doing this story like
Sir Simon Stanhope 😊
I absolutely love ALL (these) Victorian ghost stories & thoroughly enjoy listening : a perfect accompaniment to a good nights slumber . Well done & Thank you .
