    Doctor James Mason was looking for a peaceful place to retire. The little town of Bradville was like a walk in the past. The people were friendly, life was slow, and the atmosphere serene. It was perfect! When he bought the old Victorian style country home known as Weatherton Estate, he didn’t believe in the supernatural. But it didn’t take him long to realize that he was not alone in the house! 
    At first, the manifestations were frightening. But once he realized the entity desperately wanted to communicate, he enlisted the assistance of his psychic housekeeper, Martha. She had been taking care of the house for years, but she had never tried to contact the ghost or find out why it was haunting Weatherton Estate. The mystery deepens even more when they learn that the answer to the puzzle is hidden in a diary lost for decades.  
    Come along with James and Martha on a journey of fear and self discovery, as they try to right a heinous wrong and free a tortured soul. The old Weatherton house will make you a believer too, when you discover the mystery that lies Behind the Wainscoting!

    Title: What the Moon Brings 
    Author: H. P. Lovecraft 
    Narrator: Jonathan Dunne 
    Original Publication: 1923 
    Public Domain: Yes 
    Series Placement: Number 28 in the Timeless Terrors series 
    Description: 
    What the Moon Brings by H. P. Lovecraft is a brief but deeply atmospheric descent into dreamlike horror — a meditation on beauty, decay, and the terrible revelations that emerge beneath moonlight. In a garden transformed by night, the narrator glimpses visions of strange waters, drifting lilies, and a ghastly secret rising from the depths. 
    Blurring the line between dream and nightmare, Lovecraft conjures an imagery of surreal dread and poetic decay, revealing horror not in what is shouted, but in what is quietly seen. This early tale exemplifies Lovecraft’s fascination with the unseen cosmos of the subconscious — where the familiar becomes alien under the moon’s cold gaze. 
    Narrated by Amazon bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne, this performance captures the story’s nocturnal rhythm and unsettling lyricism — a whispered journey through shadow and revelation. While the text itself is in the public domain, this narration is an original performance and copyright © 2025 Jonathan Dunne. 
    Part of Timeless Terrors, a series dedicated to reviving the haunting classics of horror and the uncanny, What the Moon Brings stands as a dream-fragment of cosmic dread and delicate madness — a moment where the beauty of the world turns upon itself and shows its true, terrible face. 
    Prepare for a tale of moonlit decay and spectral wonder, where night reveals more than the waking mind can endure.

    Sydney Horler (1888-1954) was one of the popular British writers of the first half of the twentieth century. Although he never quite reached critical acclaim, his books sold by the millions. His most famous creation was a British Agent called Tiger Standish, a precursor to Ian Fleming’s James Bond.  
    But this story, narrated by Michael Henrik Wynn, the editor of the educational net radio stream Historyradio.org, is a young adult horror story that manages to be sufficiently scary - with a gleam in its eye. It features satanism, attempted murder and contains considerable humour.  
    The music at the start and at the end of the audiobook comes from Kwartet Japoński I by Maciej Żołnowski distributed by musopen.org.
