Classic Ghost Stories

Naxos AudioBooks, the finest audiobook label for classic literature, presents Classic Ghost Stories, complete with the text, in a newly designed, self-contained app.

THE COLLECTION
Oh, Whistle and I'll Come to You My Lad remains one of the most read and truly unnerving ghost stories ever written and it, along with many others, was recited by James himself (as was the tradition every Christmas) to the pupils of The King‘s College Choir School. Hopefully by a crackling fire, a few flickering candles, and not too much wind! These tales, above all, are spine tingling and thoroughly ripping yarns. So sit back by the light of your flickering candle and enjoy. Your disposition may never be the same again.

“With its suitably unsettling music - the viola is ideal for creating a spooky atmosphere - [the stories] succeed in James’s aim of ‘causing readers to feel pleasantly uncomfortable’.”
Karen Robinson, The Sunday Times, on the original audiobook production
