  1942: Young Irish nurse Ellen arrives at May Day House, tasked with helping the men there rehabilitate. But there’s something strange about the house, surrounded by water, on its own island in the Thames. And then there are the men: traumatised by their experiences of war, and subject to troubling methods in a desperate race to get them back to duty. As Ellen gets drawn into the world of May Day House, she starts to realise this will be no place to hide away from her own troubles…

But all is not what it seems in the riverside community. As their plans for the rundown house meet resistance from the neighbours, Meredith finds herself slowly unravelling: she hears voices on the water, sees figures where there can be no one there.

  'I am about to let loose on the world a plague which could destroy all mankind'
  Casting the Runes originally appeared in M.R. James' second published collection of ghost stories (1911) and has significantly influenced the horror genre, inspiring later writers and filmmakers with its emphasis on atmosphere and psychological tension.
  
  When academic Edward Dunning dismisses a manuscript by the sinister Mr. Karswell, he unwittingly becomes the target of a deadly curse. Almost immediately, he starts to experience strange and inexplicable phenomena, and as these eerie events escalate, Dunning must unravel the mystery of the runes before time runs out.
  Casting the Runes is a chilling tale of occult revenge that highlights the author's masterful ability to build tension through a distinctive blend of scholarly realism and creeping dread.
  Montague Rhodes James (1862–1936) was a distinguished English medievalist scholar and academic, serving as Provost of King's College, Cambridge, and later Eton College. His ghost stories, widely regarded as the finest in the English language, have been widely influential on modern horror and many - including Oh, Whistle and I'll Come For You, My Lad,The Tractate Middoth, A View from a Hill and Casting the Runes (aka Night of the Demon) - have been adapted for the screen

  Title: Let Loose 
  Author: Mary Cholmondeley 
  Narrator: Jonathan Dunne 
  Original Publication: 1890 
  Public Domain: Yes 
  Series Placement: Number 39 in the Timeless Terrors series 
  Description: 
  Let Loose by Mary Cholmondeley is a tale of forbidden curiosity and ancestral dread — a Gothic masterpiece that fuses the haunted past with the peril of modern discovery. First published in the late Victorian era, it stands as one of the most unsettling explorations of the supernatural in English fiction. 
  When an architect is summoned to restore a decaying abbey, he unwittingly disturbs a tomb long sealed — and unleashes a terror bound by sacred warning. Cholmondeley’s story unfolds with elegant restraint and rising unease, revealing that the boundaries between the living and the dead are more fragile than reason admits. 
  Narrated by Amazon bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne, this performance captures the tale’s chilling atmosphere — the echoing corridors, the whisper of desecrated dust, and the growing certainty that some doors, once opened, can never again be closed. While the text is in the public domain, this narration is an original performance and copyright © 2025 Jonathan Dunne. 
  Part of Timeless Terrors, a series devoted to resurrecting the masters of the macabre, Let Loose stands as a warning from the past — that reverence ignored and curiosity unchained can awaken horrors best left entombed.

  "Hardcore horror fans should find this blood-splattered novel highly satisfying: Stephen King's Cujo meets Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds." -Paul Goat Allen, BlueInk Review 
  Derek Rains, a nature-loving real estate developer in Colorado, has just adopted a Xolo (also known as a Mexican hairless dog, revered by the Aztecs as the guardians of the underworld). But when the Xolo bites his young son, Derek is forced to abandon the dangerous dog in the woods, where it is picked up by members of a dog-fighting ring. 
  Horrified to see humans forcing dogs to kill each other, the Xolo taps into the ancient powers of its species to convince the other dogs to band together and kill the humans. Now free and wanting revenge on the humans who hurt and abandoned them, the dogs begin killing humans who imprison dogs, growing their ranks in the process. 
  With the killings spreading across the county, the local sheriff’s suspicions fall on Derek, whose dog was the only vicious animal in the county before these attacks. Derek refuses to believe that his animal could be responsible for so much carnage, but when his young son almost becomes the xolo’s next victim, Derek must face up to the facts and put an end to the carnage. 
  XOLO is a fast-paced but literary creature horror novel with a mixture of ferocious action, cinematic atmosphere, Lovecraftian undertones, and well-developed characters, which is the first in a planned trilogy.
