Reader Stephen Critchelow has spent a lifetime collecting and reading works like these and, with carefully chosen music, brings a strong sense of atmosphere to this recording. It provides a great listening experience for dark autumn evenings.©2007 Naxos Rights International (P)2007 Naxos Rights International Anthologies Anthologies & Short Stories Horror Scary Fiction

This is possibly my favourite MR James story. However, I didn't like the narration quite so much as the ones read by David Suchet which I bought at the same time. The narrator's voice just seemed more modern and thus out of tune with the story.

Wonderful story, not so keen on narration
