@@earthcat -- Years ago, I had an encounter with a hauntingly-beautiful and charming Romanian woman. She bore an uncanny resemblance to the actress Natasha Demetriou ("Nadja" on "What We Do In The Shadows"). The business of life got between us, and I never saw her again (only in dreams).
Good one , Edward ! I always like stories that are written as diary / journal / or by dates or news articles . For me , that has always made the unbelievable more "believable" . Thanks ! 💀🎱💀
I've said this before in my comments on some of your other videos, but I'll say it again. I would absolutely love to see you and Ian Gordon from HorrorBabble do a dramatic collaboration of an old horror novel where both of you voiced a specific character in the story. I haven't checked your Patreon page recently to see if I'm still your only Patreon, but seeing as I'm a Patreon of both channels, maybe I could mercilessly bug the two of you until the idea finally gets some traction. 😝
THANKS, Tekel. Anything's "possible." Right now it's a "stretch" just to make the weekly posting deadline of my thing on the FF channel....I've neglected Patreon. My daylight wage-earner duties rule over my ghoul duties....E.E.F.
@@FrenchEdward06 cheers! I remember you telling me this was your weekend hobby and you were limited in how much time you could devote to it at present. I've seen many really cool TH-cam collaborations over the years in various fields (tech, science, music, etc.), oftentimes by mere enthusiasts. I would imagine it'd be a lengthy process to do the type of collaboration I'm suggesting, so putting the idea on the back burner is understandable. But alas, thank you for the time you put into this channel. I've managed to get my sister hooked on your channel (along with HorrorBabble and Bitesized Audio Classics), and she has been as baffled as me in trying to understand why your channel isn't more popular than it is. Narrations like these are truly a work of art.
@@tekelupharsin4426 It really beats me if I work a 16- or 17 hour day on a film. There's nothing left for recording stories........a few years from now I will become a narrator contender on the interweb.....unless the "Deep Fakes" RULE. E.E.F.
Though a familiar tale to me, your performance gives it a special bouquet, thanks again for your continuing contributions to the well-being of countless misanthropes, of which I am no doubt one.
Thank you for another superb performance Mr French - listening to your narrations is always a joy; this one however really captivated me. I hope you and your loved ones are well. All the best.
Happy New Year! May this year bring you and your's good health, happiness, prosperity and much inspiration. Thank you for this excellent narration. I sincerely appreciate it. Cheers!
the “it” whatever it is, deleted what i wrote - and now i can’t remember how i said it!! it had something to do with the dolcet tones of your voice being so calming. then i was trying to say something about your voice that would have been embarrassing - and i don’t know to whom t’would be most embarrassing - you or me. so it’s just as well it got deleted and i can’t remember how i was going to put it - right!? are you confused? cause i certainly am. but - don’t blame me - i grew up watching Gracie. “Say good night, Gracie.” “Good night.” 🌷🌼
A wonderful addition to the FF library - thank you for your continued efforts. Absolutely brilliant.
Garlic.
Don't leave home without it.
I'd like to dedicate this story (and reading) to my English and Romanian ancestors. Thank you, Mr. French.
Cheers, Walter. Thanks for listening! E.E.F.
I once knew an elder gentleman from Romania...he was what I fondly refer to as my bus and train buddy. He was such a lovely man.

Thanks , Jeff. I prefer them too (most of the time). I like the conversational tone. They lend themselves to the audio book medium. Cheers. E.E.F.

Welcome to the Fiction Fantastique misanthrope club- the foreign legion of fantasy fiction! E.E.F.
I feel so famous
Thank you for another superb performance Mr French - listening to your narrations is always a joy; this one however really captivated me. I hope you and your loved ones are well. All the best.
Great job, Mr. French!
Kudos to Mr. F.G. Loring for providing the ghoulish entertainment. E.E.F.
Awesome reading, as always. You have no of knowing just how much you are appreciated. Thanks.
edit: left out a word.
I know I'm appreciated by the Bald Eagle. Don't become extinct! E.E.F.
Happy New Year! May this year bring you and your's good health, happiness, prosperity and much inspiration. Thank you for this excellent narration. I sincerely appreciate it. Cheers!
Thank you, Mr. F., for another superb reading. I wasn't familiar with this story.
Neither was I , until a listener suggested it. E.E.F.
E.E.F. we are excited to sink our fangs into this one!
Consider this sanguine tale a token of my infection for listeners like you. E.E.F.
Reminds me of the MR James story...An Episode of Cathedral History.
I'll have to check that out, Aaron. Thanks for listening. E.E.F.
Impeccable reading, as always. Thank you.
Yes, Rosie, I poked around my library dungeon's darkest, dankest moldering book shelf for this one! Glad you liked it. E.E.F.
@@FrenchEdward06 LOL

Excellent story, though my wife was a bit disturbed. Perhaps her name and the choice to play it before bed didn't help.
Ah-ha! You can't blame the old storyteller for domestic collateral damage. Cheers. E.E.F.
