    I enjoy these types, reminder of the days when we as children would be called to grandmother's house for a dinner and then stories by the fire . Opa would travel for work, come home and tell us tales of the towns and people who he'd come back from. As a farm girl, These we're wild Stories! Now, I am the grandma telling the children tales.😍

    In "The Horse of the Invisible," it took me a bit to realise that "flashlight" meant the camera's flash. I'm sure that most listeners understand that immediately, but I thought I would mention it just in case.
    Also, thank you for these stories! I had read a Carnaki storiy in a anthology as a library book years ago, but couldn't find any more. Many thanks!

    Thousands of years of bloodshed and carnage throughout the British Empire had finally been quieted by the dawn of the 20th century, and condensed in literature by Dickens, and later by Henry James into scary but harmless Edwarian ghost stories. Then WW1 came roaring in, and the real bloodshed and carnage said "Step aside, puny stories. We're back!!"
    That said, this site is awesome. I love these ghost stories!

    This collection has kept me entertained for the better part of a week now, it's one of your best, and Carnacki reminds me of your own character Van Melsen, or should it be the other way around?

    its hilarious the mysticism they attribute to electricity something we all take for granted but in the 1920s no one had a clue about what it was or did properly and to them many people must have thought it magic , with comments with the" new fangled electric things" ,,,,,

    I can’t help wondering whether Mr Carnacki will ever learn to close his eyes when he employs his camera’s flashlight? 🤔

    i have NO idea why, but i listen to Carnacki stories every couple of months or so. the way you read them? maybe - sort of light and yet dramatic. :) thanks much. 🌛🌜
    the only other stories like that are the Agatha Christie “Quinn” stories, but you don’t read those, right? they are sort of magical. 🪄 ✨

      Christie's works aren't in the public domain. We'd love to record some eventually though.

    Spoiler!!!!
    second story - the killing of the dogs was horrendous. i don’t even understand how someone could even think of that. every other story is fun scary. i also don’t understand the wanton killing of pets. even back then, people loved their pets. i think there’s only one story where Carnaki’s own pets live, even though they were scared. i really don’t get the gruesomeness of this one!!! what! to show there are very bad people? and they weren’t even arrested!!!

    Had to stop at @01:04:32, sorry - to keep it spoiler free, I'll just say that I couldn't finish watching the Babadook for the same reason... I'll come back later into the story... :(

      I am almost through with story number two and an animal is killed in this one as well. A dog this time and he’s killed very very descriptively.

      If you work with animals, especially animals who have been missed treated or abused then proceed with caution
