I was so incredibly pleased to have found this offering,.. I would be hard pressed to find a more erudite rendering of gothic ghost shorties,... and the choice of narrator was superb.
BRAVO..!!

Absolutely Breathtaking Command of The English Language.

Le Fanu is great and the narrator is fabulous, but the selection of stories is odd. Two of them, The Drunkard’s Dream and The Vision of Tom Chuff, are essentially the same story, with Irish and English settings, respectively, and different details. Both stories are creepy and mesmerizing but it was a strange editorial choice to include them both in such a short collection.

Terrific
