I like her prose. Ahead of her time, i think, with her slightly postmodern dark humor about writers and writing. Always cool to hear a Weird tale by a lady from back in the day. Fairly rare. I wonder if the Call of Cthulhu scenario “Mr Corbitt” is a reference.
My Better Half woke me to complain that I fell asleep to this while she says she can't sleep after hearing it. This comment is my penance, along with which I shall have to listen through to the end on another night.
I have translated, as a lawyer, hundreds of documents without any kind of sideffects. I fail to see what happened to our noble and learned friend. Thanks Ian. Excellent, as usual.
Wow, I'm just reading your comment - very impressive. Translated into another language, I'm assuming, right? What kind of lawyer does translating, if you don't mind me asking?
@@sugarfalls1 Translation of documents from one language to another is a part of lawyer's job, if one knows the language according to Greek law. It serves because it is also validates the content of the document and certifies the copy of the translated document.
@@andreasfilis9001 I've never heard of a lawyer that translates as part of their job. What kind of lawyer are you? You mean say from English to French?
@@sugarfalls1 apart from litigation, negotiation and all the stuff you know there is a statutory provision for the translation of documents in Greek law. Many documents need to be translated if they are to be used in courts or submitted to authorities, i. e. a contract, a lease document, employer's references. That is why it is a part of the job. The languages depend on which you know. For me, English to Greek and the opposite.
(Spoilers Ahead Dear Listeners) It's nice to see the corruption of a character via evil artefact play out, when most stories either have this be resisted for a protagonist or be a past event for an antagonist
@@johnbutler370 hey man if you go comment diving on a story almost 100 years old before youve read/listened thats on you. And honestly I barely said more than whats in the premise, I swear some people consider something like a blurb to be major spoilers
A truly riveting story! Always a pleasure to read stories that depict someone's madness progressing without the knowledge of the sufferer and portrayed through the actions and behaviours of others.
This was an amazing story today. I enjoyed the reference to the Ole Curiosity Shop. I also enjoy stories about old books. Excellent narration. Thank you very much ❤️🤗🌟
I inquired about the affairs of Warren, a rather bookish sort. The reply took me aback. You fool! Warren has been read! Kudos to the narrator and author 🎉🎉
"Heard it well up from the innermost depths of that damnable open sepulchre as I watched amorphous, necrophagous shadows dance beneath an accursed waning moon. And this is what it said:" No wait, I've quite forgotten what it said. Anyway it can't have been that important ?
For a moment I thought the story was gonna be like "Death Note". It was an anime from many years ago whose plot involved a book that kills whoevers name is written in it. The deaths are caused by an entity that only the book holder can see. When the family could see the mark but he couldn't, I thought it was going to be like that. Some invisible entity that has agency through the book. I was wrong but not too far off. Lol
Bruh - it's a flippin' bookcase. If you're gonna kvetch about AI, at least kvetch about something that's recognizable as AI. Most of us here are more interested in the audio anyways.

Every time I want poetry she wants prose. I'm too slow. I'm trying to pick it up though.
Considerably darker than I expected. Good stuff.

If any book now tells you to kill her ... don't!
I was really afraid this was going to end horribly, but it ended just as it should!
Another author discovered, another little gem of a tale. Horrorbabble never ceases to amaze me.
I love this one, would love to hear more from this author!

@@andreasfilis9001 But you don't know how to speak Greek fluently, right? This is just legal jargon, right? Most legal jargon is in Latin.

Excellent as always, thanks, sir!
29:00 took me out of it heavy for a second as all I can picture is Mr. Krabs from Spongebob being sad about losing money.

Mike is an unlikely name for a dog. This story presents a wonderful description of Narcissism.
This was my thoughts EXACTLY. I immediately thought of the couple of occasions where I had become close to a genuine narcissist.
How so? Do you mean his arrogant and derogatory comments towards other lawyers and his children?
This was an amazing story today. I enjoyed the reference to the Ole Curiosity Shop. I also enjoy stories about old books. Excellent narration. Thank you very much ❤️🤗🌟
I love the artifacts series
Great story and narration! This is very well-written. I listened to it three times!!
Thanks!
A truly horrifying artifact! An excellent selection and, as always, marvelously told

You fool!
Warren has been read!
Kudos to the narrator and author 🎉🎉
😂😂😂😂😂
Sometimes it’s good when Randolph doesn’t have to recall that statement.
❤
Keep up the good work and, as always, stay safe!
"Heard it well up from the innermost depths of that damnable open sepulchre as I watched amorphous, necrophagous shadows dance beneath an accursed waning moon. And this is what it said:"
No wait, I've quite forgotten what it said.
Anyway it can't have been that important ?
Magnificent many thanks Ian!
Damn! That was a great story! Kudos to HB for another fine offering!
I loved her historical novels as a teenager.
A strongly M. R. James influenced story. Stylish prose stylishly read.
Phenomenal narration!
Wonderful, almost lovecraftian.
Thank you ❤
That was a really good one. Thank you!
Awesome. ❤
Yet another wonderful narration. Not heard this story before. Have a wonderful day.
Really well written.
Wonderful! This is the first time I'd heard of this story and I like it.
He stops being social in order to read books and feel superior to people - all he needed was a couple of cats!
HorrorBabble: This is a book
Audience: No...
HB: There's more
A: Dear god...
Wow, that was a horror gem.
I guess ill check this one out...
I don’t know if Warren is alive or dead. But I do appreciate this channel.
Tell me where is Warren, for i much desire to speak with him!
Thanks!

Have you made a collection of storirs for kids like ones in Rillington, Your Turn Joey, notebook found in abanded house?
I haven't, Dennis -- I'm pretty sure YT would misinterpret such a collection.
@@HorrorBabble hadn't thought of that.
"You fool! Warren is dead"
Not this time......
Must have been the Rabbits
@@leebennett1821
The Rabbits from Hell ?
Muhahaha!
I get less out of this than by reading.
Why listen, then?
breh, AI art breh. just draw something in paint or something instead.
