Sinossi

British sleuth Patrick Dawlish has his doubts when a case takes him into the dark side of spiritualism in this entrancing Golden Age mystery.   Writer and psychic Charles Horden has no problem attracting the women of London. They seem to throw themselves—and their money—at him, leaving a trail of indignant husbands behind them. Patrick Dawlish’s wife hasn’t fallen prey to his charms, but she does believe that Horden is in danger.   That’s how Dawlish gets drawn into the strangest investigation of his crime-solving career. While harboring Horden at his home, Dawlish quickly learns that jealous spouses are the least of his worries. Nothing is beyond those pursuing Horden—even murder. Someone is using the medium’s powers to prey upon others, and it isn’t the psychic himself. Dawlish may not believe in the otherworldly, but he’s very familiar with the avarice and evil that exist in the here and now . . .

    "In the frozen ground of the Hürtgen Forest, Lieutenant Eric Granville digs a grave. A grave for yet another of his men lost to the brutality of World War II. He prays he will have to dig no more, for everyone knows the war is drawing to a close.  But as German lines bend, then break, the Allies gain access to vast tracts of territory, including areas believed to contain advanced military research projects where the Nazis desperately work on war-ending super weapons. Captain Louis Weiner of the OSS believes he knows the location of one such facility, deep in the ancient forest, where scientists are developing the world’s first night-vision weapon, code-named Vampir. All Weiner needs is an armed escort — Granville and his platoon get the job.  Granville is only too happy to get his guys off the front line, but he and Weiner are soon to find there is far more to the research project than expected. A simple milk run becomes a battle for survival as the woods come alive with a new kind of enemy, an enemy to all humanity.Featuring a special cameo appearance by Scott Sigler portraying Lt. Col. John Maberry, the battalion commanding officer.Adapted from the screenplay written by Scott Sigler with Adrian Picardi and produced with a full cast of actors, immersive sound effects and cinematic music!Performed by Michael John Casey, Matthew Bassett, Terence Aselford, Danny Gavigan, Ian Putnam, Kay Eluvian, Rayner Gabiel, Rob McFadyen, Scott Sigler, Matthew Pauli, Robb Moreira, Michael Glenn, Richard Rohan, Bradley Smith, Eric Messner, Matthew Schleigh, and Nanette Savard."

    A mournful cry, a well that echoes the past, and an invitation to remember the forgotten.
    In Wailing Well, M. R. James crafts a haunting tale of mystery and spectral terror, where the quiet of a rural landscape is disturbed by a cry from the past—an eerie wail that resonates through time.
    As James unearths the secrets buried in the forgotten well, he masterfully builds a sense of creeping dread and inevitable doom, reminding us that some things—once heard—can never be forgotten. With his signature style of subtle horror, James plunges the listener into a chilling world where even silence can be deadly.
