Usually reputed as the most beautiful region in the whole of England, join Robin Shuckburgh as he delves beneath the picturesque surface of the Cotswolds into the gruesome, dark depths. This is a collection of wonderfully ghastly tales from a range of classic authors.

The first short story - "The Tomb of Sara" - was written by English navy officer, and writer, Frederick George Loring. It was one of the very first stories from the last century featuring a lady vampire. The feminine element represents the connection with "Luella Miller" by Mary Eleanor Wilkins Freeman. The inhabitant of a haunted house sucks life out of everyone who gets interested in her - and the atmosphere gets denser throughout the story.

Extracts from a diary report first-hand the uncovering of a tomb and the nightly wanderings of the vampire previously encased within. Attempts to lay her to rest are about as successful as you might expect.... The Tomb of Sarah is taken from the Victorian Anthologies series featuring short stories by classic writers of the spooky, the scary and the supernatural. Guaranteed to give you the shivers, each collection includes familiar and loved creepy tales as well as those less well-known. With music by Benedict Edwards.
