'The Queen of Spades'

Farewell to 2012, and a Happy New Year to all our readers for 2013. Here's a stylish radio drama for the turning of the year, based on a classic weird tale from Russian literature. And the moral of the story is - do not wager anything on the turn of a card. As if you would.

Radio Drama! Now that's a great way to enjoy a New Year's Day. I'll be listening to it tonight. In the meantime here's wishing you a Happy New Year.

Another great post Dave!

Hi Nick,

As a fan and avid reader of your
blog, I thought you may be interested in one that I've recently launched, freaky folk
tales

http://freakyfolktales.wordpress.com

It's a repository for my storytelling of
hauntings, myths and legends across
southern Britain.

Best wishes and a happy new year,

Paul Hodge

'Schalken the Painter' by Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu

A reading by yours truly of one of the all-time classics. I hope you enjoy it!  I'm told my voice sends people to sleep so maybe try it ...
