Reviews

well done


(5 stars)

as usual a great collection reading of spooky tales

mildly entertaining


(2.5 stars)

I enjoy listening to works from this era, with the poetic & romantic use of the English language. these particular stories were entertaining, however not the writers best examples of their works. great to fall asleep to.

Good selection


(5 stars)

The majority of these stories were new to this reader. Indeed , there's even a E. A. Poe story that's not The Masque of the Red Death or The Cask of Almontillado. I especially liked the Robert Louis Stevenson Story and Guy de Maupassant... The writing was beautiful to hear. All the readers did good jobs, some with changes in voice and others just straight on and clearly. Only occasionally , the electronic equipment interrupted the quality.

that last story is...


(4 stars)

strangely heartbreaking, or heartbreakingly strange. one of those. most were great Readers, some had sound quality issues.. and most of the stories were incredible, others were just confusing, dry & rambling. compilation is put together well, for the most part. I now understand why there are few authors of the past that are well-known.

love it!


(4 stars)

I absolutely love the reader of the banshee, the part with the song was great and he was so entertaining. I appreciate all of the readers and hope to have the chance to enjoy more of their hard work

A good mix of tales


(4 stars)

Some very good stories, some have aged less well. Some enjoyable readers, although the audio quality varies on some. doubtless something for everyone here. Well worth a listen
