Before Dracula, there was Carmilla—a chilling, seductive tale that laid the foundation for vampire fiction as we know it.

Set in a mysterious and secluded castle in 19th-century Styria, Carmilla tells the story of Laura, a young woman who encounters the enigmatic and alluring Carmilla. What begins as a friendship blossoms into something more intimate, but as Carmilla's true nature is slowly revealed, Laura finds herself ensnared in a web of eerie secrets, danger, and supernatural horror.

A masterpiece of gothic literature, Carmilla explores themes of love, desire, and the sinister allure of the unknown. With its haunting atmosphere, compelling characters, and suspenseful narrative, this novella by Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu is an unforgettable journey into the shadowy world of vampires.

Hailed as a gothic classic, Carmilla remains a cornerstone of vampire literature. Praised by critics and beloved by readers, it has influenced countless adaptations and inspired some of the greatest works of horror and gothic fiction.

    Title: The Night Wire 
    Author: H. F. Arnold 
    Narrator: Jonathan Dunne 
    Original Publication: 1926 
    Public Domain: Yes 
    Series Placement: Number 47 in the Timeless Terrors series 
    Description: 
    The Night Wire by H. F. Arnold is one of the most haunting pieces of early 20th-century weird fiction — a story that fuses the hum of modern technology with a creeping, supernatural dread. 
    Inside a dim telegraph office in the dead of night, two wire operators receive a strange news report: a distant city consumed by fog and death. Yet as the dispatches continue, the events seem to unfold in real time — and ever closer to home. 
    With its claustrophobic atmosphere, its blend of realism and the uncanny, and its quiet descent into cosmic horror, The Night Wire stands as a forgotten classic of early radio-age terror — a perfect bridge between pulp mystery and Lovecraftian unease. 
    Narrated by Amazon-bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne, this performance captures the dread of isolation, the crackle of the telegraph, and the mounting terror of a message that refuses to stop. 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 and uncanny, The Night Wireendures as a chilling reminder that sometimes the scariest voices come not from beyond the grave — but from the wire itself.

    At the Summer Solstice, the prophecy states the greatest powers in the history of the Sisterhood will pass down to the next daughter of Eve, imbuing her with an ancient and powerful energy. She must be made to understand her purpose by the previous daughter of Eve. It is a great honour, and the ancient magic should be used wisely. The ancestral light energy is full of love and passion, always remembering, we are human, and have both light and dark within us, but the light will always beat the dark. 
    Listen to the exciting stories of four notable and powerful daughters of Eve, Sidonie, Angelique, Gertrude and Siobhan, and their adventures within the Sisterhood. Follow these women through the ages as they fight for justice. Each of their journeys reflect the historical times they lived in from the medieval ages through to the Second World War and the difficult challenges they faced. These women fought for their emancipation and right to live freely from fear, hate and evil. 
    Women have the right to a voice and need to be heard. These women fought not only the challenges of the historical times they lived in, and the patriarchy which existed, but their destinies were to fight evil and eradicate it from the earth. Their stories will inspire and uplift you.
