  Description: 
  The Secret of the Tomb is a dark tale of obsession, ancestral legacy, and creeping supernatural dread. 
  The story follows a young man who becomes fixated on the history of his family estate and the mysterious tomb that lies upon the grounds. As he delves deeper into the past, he uncovers disturbing revelations tied to his lineage — secrets long buried but not entirely dormant. What begins as curiosity slowly transforms into psychological unease, as strange impulses and uncanny experiences blur the line between inherited madness and something far more sinister. 
  With mounting tension and a suffocating atmosphere, Robert Bloch crafts a narrative steeped in Gothic horror and cosmic suggestion. Beneath the surface lies a meditation on identity, destiny, and the inescapable pull of blood and heritage. 
  Narrated by Amazon bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne, this performance captures the mounting dread and claustrophobic intensity of Bloch’s early weird fiction.

  Lieutenant Sheli Chowdhury, Warner Space Marines, arrives on Humboldt with no greater objective than to complete her Combined Fleet requirements. She doesn't know why a criminal investigative unit would ask for a combat Marine to fill an investigative position. With no security experience, it makes no sense, but sometimes military life is just that way. So, she will just have to keep doing her job until she can figure out why she’s here. 
  After spending weeks investigating seemingly unconnected problems, all she has are confusion, a mystery, and pieces of a puzzle that refuses to fit together. 
  In the middle of her confusion, she is caught unprepared and she barely escapes an ambush she never anticipates. Finding herself in the midst of a shooting war, her troops look to her for answers she cannot give them. She understands less of the big picture with every new piece of evidence she uncovers. 
  All she wants is to do her duty and to bring her people through the conflict alive, but every betrayal makes that less likely. In order to keep her people safe, she must deduce who she can trust. The more she learns about what is going on, the less clear the answer becomes. 
  She has to believe someone, but trusting the wrong people might lead to death for her and everyone around her.

  For better or worse, the Nearly Dearly Departed Club are back ... and this time it's a matter of life and death. 
   
  Or rather, stay alive long enough to protect the dead. That's the plan, at least. But then what do they say about best laid plans? 
   
  There’s been a death at HM Prison Stainmouth. The corpse in question is one Impetus Stokes, criminal mastermind, found dead in his cell from an overdose. For no obvious reason, Agatha Pleasant's team of squabbling misfits are assigned the task of collecting his coffin, sitting on it for a few days before handing it over to the necessary authorities. It makes no sense whatsoever, but then why break the habit of a lifetime? 
  Besides, how hard can it be to watch over a coffin? 
  Very hard, as it happens. Practically impossible. Especially when the dead refuse to stay dead. 
   
  Something that the Nearly Dearly Departed Club are only too aware of themselves.

  The Old Men of the Twilight -...

  William Butler Yeats was born on 13th June 1865 in Sandymount, Ireland to a family that historically had a passion for the arts.  
  At two his family moved to London to enable his elder siblings to pursue their artistic careers. Yeats went to the Godolphin School as well as receiving further instruction from his mother and his brother. 
  Back in Dublin in the early 1880s the teenager attended Erasmus Smith High School and then the National College of Art and Design. It was now that Yeats began his adventure with poetry and literature culminating in the 1889 publication of ‘The Wanderings of Oisin & Other Poems’.  
  In 1890, back in London Yeats was a founder member of The Rhymers Club, a group of bohemians based at the Cheshire Cheese Pub in Fleet St, and helped it receive a formidable reputation both in Decadent and Modernist poetry. 
  In the last years of the 19th Century his passion for theatre found him with other playwrights founding the Abbey Theatre, giving him a platform to perform his own experimental plays as well as by others to establish an Irish theatrical tradition.  
  By now his poetry was both refined and widely admired with verse such as ‘Easter, 1916’, ‘The Wild Swans at Coole’ and ‘The Second Coming.’  In other genres his plays and his stories, many based on Irish folklore, found a growing audience and his works taken together clearly show his Irish Nationalism coming to the fore.  
  His handsome features and romantic nature led to many affairs but those he wanted including Katharine Tynan and Maud Gonne rejected him but kept him as a life-long friend. It was only in 1917, in his 50’s, that he married the much younger Georgie Hyde-Lees. 
  With Ireland now a free nation he was appointed to the first Irish Senate in 1922.  The following year there came the recognition of the Nobel Prize in Literature with the citation "for his always inspired poetry, which in a highly artistic form gives expression to the spirit of a whole nation". 
  By the end of the decade several years of health problems had worn him down but after a radical new treatment he was seemingly back to his best. 
  William Butler Yeats died on 28th January 1939 in Menton, France. In accordance with his wishes: 'If I die, bury me up there and then in a year's time when the newspapers have forgotten me, dig me up and plant me in Sligo'.
