An old house turns out not to be as empty as its new owners supposed. A nobleman barters his soul for arcane knowledge. A stranger with a terrible curse looks for an unsuspecting victim to take her place.
Monsters, killers and unquiet spirits stalk these stories, drawn from the places where folklore, the Gothic and modern fiction intertwine – Irish literature's dark and ever-present shadow.

    Step into the moss-clad hush of The Forgotten Grave, an audiobook that unearths a long-buried secret and invites you to walk among restless spirits. In this immersive tale, you’ll:
    
     
    Wander through overgrown churchyards and moonlit woods as whispers drift from an unmarked tomb, beckoning you closer.
    
     
    Piece together clues from faded gravestone inscriptions, hidden journal pages, and the faint echo of a lullaby carried on the night breeze.
    
     
    Feel the chill of unseen presences stirring beneath the earth—soft sobs among the reeds, cold drafts at your back, and the fleeting brush of spectral hands.
    
     
    Follow a determined seeker racing to break an age-old curse before the boundary between the living and the dead dissolves completely.
    
    
     
    Narrated with a haunting, intimate cadence and woven with subtle soundscapes—from the rustle of dying leaves to the distant toll of a forsaken bell—The Forgotten Grave draws you into its shrouded mystery. Press play…and dare to listen, for some secrets refuse to stay buried.

    Louisa MacDonald was born in 1845, one of eleven children of part Scottish descent.  Together with three of her sisters they were known as the ‘MacDonald sisters’ primarily because of their marriages to well-known men.   
     
    In 1866 she married the wealthy industrialist Alfred Baldwin in a double wedding with her sister Anne.   
     
    After giving birth to Stanley on the 3rd August 1867, who would go on to become Prime Minister, she drifted into an unhappy life in her then residence in Worcestershire.  She had at least one miscarriage and days alone depressed and in darkness. 
     
    During the 1870’s the couple travelled to find a lasting cure and tried a variety of treatments which led to her recovery in 1883.  She now became a leading figure in her local village of Wilden, near Stourbridge. 
     
    Her writing career of novels, short stories and poetry is often overlooked, as was the case with so many women, yet her works reveal many talents and a gift for melding odd and weird circumstances into seemingly everyday life.   
     
    Louisa Baldwin died in 1925.
