Show Notes

Our apologies for running late with this episode, but we’re launching ourselves into the Halloween season with this adaptation of a classic M. R. James tale!

What malicious presence has taken up residence in the house? Does this blend of audio drama and storytelling succeed in bringing the tale to life? When did the thought of rats at the window become reassuring? Listen for yourself and find out!
