  A lone man holding a candelabrum stands in the center of a cold, stone-walled chamber known as the Red Room. Flickering candlelight casts ominous shadows along the walls, and antique furniture looms in the corners. His eyes are wide with tension, and he looks over his shoulder at something unseen. The atmosphere is eerie, dark, and steeped in gothic suspense. 
  The Red Room by H.G. Wells is a masterfully written tale of psychological horror, suspense, and atmosphere. First published in 1896, this gothic short story explores the fine line between fear and imagination through the experience of a skeptic who agrees to spend the night alone in a room said to be haunted. 
  The protagonist enters the notorious Red Room with confidence, determined to debunk the legends surrounding it. But as the night wears on, flickering shadows, silence, and mounting dread take a toll on his mind. Is the room truly haunted, or is the most terrifying specter the fear that lives within us all? 
  This full audiobook brings Wells' vivid descriptions and rising tension to life, drawing listeners deep into a chilling exploration of the psychology of fear, where darkness is both literal and symbolic. 
  If you love classic horror, atmospheric fiction, and tales that challenge the boundary between reality and perception, The Red Room is a must-listen.

  "We are not fake anythings!" said Lance. 
  "I could debate that with you," said Blake.

  "Now I have a ghost and a grim reaper in my lounge room!" said Lance infuriated. 
  "Grand Reaper? What's that?" the ghost asked. 
  "Another name for a couch potato!" Lance hissed, 
  "Dork why you shouting," said Junior walking in the room.

  Dracula's Guest - From their...

  Bram Stoker

  Abraham Stoker was born in Dublin, Ireland on the 8th of November 1847, the third of seven children.  
  His early years were plagued with such ill-health that he was unable to start school until the age of seven.  He turned the long periods of recovery into an opportunity for thinking and said “I was naturally thoughtful, and the leisure of long illness gave opportunity for many thoughts which were fruitful according to their kind in later years”.  
  Strikingly at Trinity College, Dublin his health had returned with such vigour that he was named their University Athlete whilst also achieving a BA in Mathematics with honours.  
  At this time his interest in theatre became a job offer to be the Dublin Evening Mail’s theatre critic, co-owned by Sheridan Le Fanu.  He now began to also write short stories and in 1872 ‘The Crystal Cup’ was published.  An interest in art developed and he co-founded the Dublin Sketching Club.  
  In 1878 came marriage to Florence Balcombe.  She had formerly been courted by Stoker’s acquaintance, Oscar Wilde.  The marriage produced one child.   
  Stoker had some years before reviewed Henry Irving’s Hamlet and had dined with him.  That friendship now resulted in a proposal from Irving to move to London and to manage his Lyceum Theatre.  His numerous commercial innovations ensured both he and the theatre thrived.  Irving would also often take Stoker with him when he toured abroad. 
  Despite this busy life Stoker continued to write and these works paved the way for his most famous creation, published in 1897, ‘Dracula’.  It is rightly recognised as one of the greatest horror novels of all time and although not the first with a theme of Vampires, it is undoubtedly the most well-known. 
  Stoker also wrote poetry and many excellent short stories and continued to write novels and other works throughout his career. 
  Politically Stoker supported Home Rule, though only by peaceful means.  He was also keen on following scientific trends particularly in medicine. 
  In 1902 his tenure at the Lyceum Theatre ended and although he continued to write his health was deteriorating, mainly due to a series of debilitating strokes. 
  Bram Stoker died on the 20th April 1912, in Pimlico, London.  He was 64.
