172 - An Authentic Narrative of a Haunted House by Sheridan Lefanu
FROM THE GREAT LIBRARY OF DREAMS PODCASTShow Notes
Continuing our haunted house season, we have a tale from Sheridan Lefanu, regarded by MR James as the greatest writer of all ghost stories. And in this little chiller from 1862, Lefanu anticipates the found footage genre, with a tale that reads exactly like a real life witness account of a haunting.
