  At some point in our lives we believe that creak, that low moan, that whisper is something unnatural, beyond our comprehension.  And in these stories our instincts are right. We are afraid. And we should be.  Perhaps even terrified.   In this volume our classic authors take different approaches but the result is inevitably the same. We are hooked by these unknowable forces, our emotions heightened and rattled by the expectation  - or shock – of the next few words.

  '… into this calm environment let the ominous thing put out its head, unobtrusively at first, and then more insistently, until it holds the stage.'
  
  Often ranked as one of M.R. James's most unnerving narratives, A Warning to the Curious is an ominous tale of the consequences of an enquiring mind.
  
  First published in the literary journal, London Mercury, in 1925, A Warning to the Curious follows young antiquary and archaeologist Paxton, holidaying on the south-east coast of England. During his stay, Paxton hears of a peculiar legend: buried deep in the Suffolk soil lies a lost crown, protecting England from invasion and keeping the land safe from disorder. When Paxton learns that the last surviving member of the Ager family – the bloodline whose responsibility it was to guard the crown – had passed, the opportunity was too great to waste. With a burning curiosity to quench, Paxton manages to locate the crown and retrieve it from the earth. However, as Paxton quickly begins to realise, the cost of his actions prove chillingly devastating… Expertly narrated by Jonathan Keeble, this audiobook edition is a ghost story for the ages.
  
  M.R. James (1862 – 1936) was an English scholar and author. He was provost of Kings College, Cambridge, and of Eton College. Widely known for his academic work in medieval studies, he was also admired for his ghost stories which remain largely influential on modern horror to this day.

  "It's my party I can be here, Mass," said the drunk reaper. 
  "You're drunk, you shouldn't come in," said Max Starfire. 
  "I'm not drunk! I didn't know you had a twin?" said the reaper looking at an invisible nonexistent man induced by drink. 
  "I don't I'm an only child," said Max nervously as the reaper pushed passed him. 
  Mortimer sat with his widow she knew who he was it was awkward.  
  "We are here to celebrate the life of the dearly departed Blake Alexander," said the Reverand in charge of the funeral who looked at the wailing reaper with suspicion.
