The powerful sense of evil – darkness, creepy hairy presences, cloaks, hoods, talons and tentacles – pervades these classic ghost stories by M.R. James. A Cambridge scholar himself, James explored what happens when academics dabble in things they don’t understand and unleash forces of which they know nothing. The titles in Ghost Stories of an Antiquary range from witchcraft to the occult, and tap into our primal fear of things that go bump in the night. They are recognised as the best of their genre.

This antiquary was a great listen and I am now a big fan of M.R. James’ stories! Perfect to listen to around Halloween and the voice acting was very well done.

A great collection of ghost stories written by a great writer of his time that is well narrated.

Well told stories of old

Decent "antiquated" horror short stories. Well-written but not particularly gripping. Yet, enjoyable and worth the time for any follower of this genre.

Not bad at all.

No one wrote ghost stories like M.R.James, the master. His style is masterful, grabs one's attention,
and never disappoints. These are not 'quickies' of horror or destruction, but slow, cool, steady unfolding of
fear..

Interesting interpretation of James' finest

This is not a slice and dice story it is a real ghost story. Something that is hard to find in today's story telling.

Great Ghost Stories
