Publisher's summary

FNH Audio presents an unabridged reading of Algernon Blackwood’s ghost story 'A Haunted House' (also known as 'A Haunted Island').

On a small isolated island in a large Canadian lake a man tries to settle down to study in an old solitary house. After a few days of perfect relaxation and study, he suddenly becomes aware that he’s not alone and that there is something unseen and terrifying in his chosen bedroom.

Very Entertaining Suspense Story

Short story of suspense. No gore, no horror -- I wouldn't even call it terror -- just good old-fashioned suspense. Perhaps the mind is playing tricks? Alone with your own-thoughts and your imagination, creates enough suspense to make you feel afraid. Entertaining and short -- provides a satisfying "quick fix" if you desire a good ghost story.

A well told tale.

the descriptions in this story are clear enough to make me believe that I have been there.
