The Bright Messenger (Pt.2)Algernon Blackwood (1869 - 1951)Julian LeVallon, born and raised alone in the Jura Mountains, is referred to psychiatrist Dr. Edward Fillery for care in London. But is LeVallon merely a schizophrenic with a secondary personality, "N.H." (non-human), or is he really an Elemental Being, a "bright messenger" who brings, perhaps, a new age of human evolution? And if so, is the human race ready for a major step forward?

In the remote Canadian wilderness, an ill-fated hunting trip turns into a nightmare when one of the guides vanishes into the night, leaving behind only his screams of burning feet and a trail of something far more terrifying than any beast of the forest.FEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: “The Wendigo” is a novella written by Algernon Blackwood. It was originally published in the 1910 collection “The Lost Valley and Other Stories” which I've placed a link to in the show notes. The story involves a hunting party that gets separated in the Canadian wilderness in search for moose. One of the party members is abducted by the legendary Wendigo. Fellow author Robert Aickman once said of the story, it's "...one of the (possibly) six great masterpieces in the field". Here's hoping you agree with him.CHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate)…00:00:00.000 = The Foreboding00:02:15.563 = Show Open00:04:17.046 = A Brief Look At The Author00:07:16.864 = The Wendigo, Part 1 ***00:22:35.406 = The Wendigo, Part 2 ***00:48:02.466 = The Wendigo, Part 3 ***01:08:43.646 = The Wendigo, Part 4 ***01:32:56.432 = The Wendigo, Part 5 ***01:53:58.350 = The Wendigo, Part 6 ***02:00:27.263 = Show Close*** = Begins immediately after inserted ad breakLISTEN ON PODCAST APPS: Look for this podcast on YouTube Music, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, Amazon Music, Pandora, TuneIn Radio, and other apps.

¿Qué te ha perturbado más de El Oyente? La casa, la presencia, el olor, el espejo… o la idea de que ciertos pensamientos quizá no son del todo tuyos. Os leo. Sinopsis En este nuevo episodio de Páginas Oscuras, nos adentramos en El Oyente, uno de los relatos más inquietantes y psicológicos de Algernon Blackwood. La historia nos presenta a un hombre solitario, de nervios frágiles, que se instala en una vieja casa londinense donde el silencio, los gatos, los olores extraños y una presencia cada vez más cercana empiezan a alterar su percepción de la realidad. A través de su diario personal asistimos al lento avance de una influencia parasitaria, invisible y hostil, que parece escucharle, vigilarle y, quizá, esperar el momento propicio para invadirlo por completo. Un relato de fantasmas enfermizo, íntimo y perturbador, donde el verdadero horror no entra por la puerta: ya estaba dentro, aguardando. Musicas: 01. Mind Tricks - Experia (Epidemic) 02.

Story Recommendation: The Empty House A famous 1906 ghost story by British author Algernon Blackwood, often featured in his collection The Empty House and Other Ghost Stories. It follows Shorthouse and his aunt as they investigate a notoriously haunted house in London, experiencing terrifying supernatural manifestations. Movie Review: Monster House A 2006 American animated supernaturalhorror comedy film. Dear Salinger, Your mom told me about Monster House scaring you. It sounds like one of the things that upset you is the fact that the house kept wanting to hurt people even after nobody wanted to hurt it anymore. I will tell you a secret that sounds so silly, you might not believe it, but this is true: I never finished writing Monster House before my bosses turned it into a movie. And then different writers, people I don't even know, changed the story in lots of ways, and the movie that you saw was not the story I wanted to tell you. I think a good story, even if it is sad or scary while you're watching it, should always make you a little less scared after you've seen it. And that didn't happen in Monster House. Why, after they escaped the house, did that old man tell them another scary story about a mean fat lady that didn't make very much sense either? I'll tell you why. Because Gil Kenan is a hack and Steven Spielberg is a moron. But hey, I shouldn't be dumping this stuff on you. I hope one day I can finish writing a movie that they don't change so much, and if you see it, I hope it makes you happy. Until then, I heard that Wall-E is very good, you should go see that. And next time Monster House is on, just remember that the guy that wrote it told you it was dumb. -Dan Haarmon Check out this link to buy DB's Books[link]

IN THIS EPISODE: A painter accepts an invitation to a remote cottage beside an ancient forest — but the deeper he ventures into the woods, the more he realizes something within them has been waiting for him. It's a classic tale from Algernon Blackwood entitled “Ancient Lights”. *** After a 17th-century landowner testifies against a suspected witch, generations of his family begin dying in the same bedroom — and something nesting in the ancient ash tree outside the window may be responsible. It's “The Ash-Tree” by M.R.

A schoolmaster arrives late at night in a remote Alpine village. The inn has no rooms. Then suddenly—there is one. A room that's occupied, yet empty. A room whose previous tenant, an Englishwoman, left two days before and hasn't returned. As he unpacks his few belongings, the atmosphere begins to press in. Something lingers here—in the faded flowers by the washstand, in the air itself. And when darkness falls, he feels it: a crushing weight of despair that doesn't belong to him. Thoughts that aren't his own. A blackness so complete it whispers of only one escape. The search party is still out on the mountains. But what if they're looking in the wrong place? Publication Details: "The Occupant of the Room" was first published in 1909 in Blackwood's collection John Silence: Physician Extraordinary, featuring the psychic detective Dr. John Silence. The story showcases Blackwood's mastery of psychological horror and the contagion of extreme emotional states. Author Biography: Algernon Blackwood (1869-1951) was a British author, occultist, and member of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn. His work explored the boundaries between psychological experience and supernatural phenomena, establishing him as one of the most influential writers of weird fiction in the early twentieth century.

In keeping with the tradition of telling ghost stories at Christmas, we offer you this expertly crafted submission from our sister podcast Haunted UK Fiction... Find this and over two dozen more stories on Haunted UK Fiction: https://linktr.ee/hauntedukfictionMy father was in a strange mood that day. He welcomed me with genuine warmth and appeared, to me at least, quite comfortable and content in his soft armchair and his cup perched delicately on the left knee. His words, however, were of the most serious sort; he betrayed no emotion by stating the facts clearly and with a certain stiff formality. I was informed that he had something very important to tell… Hello and welcome, dear listeners, to Haunted UK Fiction – a sister podcast to The Haunted UK which features original flash fiction, short stories, and novellas with paranormal themes. All stories you will hear were written by a collection of talented writers, authors, and storytellers, both independent and professional.In today's episode we'll be reading The Overcoat, an eerie, spine-tingling tale which was sent in to us by LD Brown. LD Brown lives in the village of Hawkshead, Cumbria with his wife and too many cats. They own a beer shop together. For the past seven years, he has been running Ghost Walks in the village under the name: Tallow Tales; The Hawkshead Ghost Walk. Twice weekly he takes visitors around the village, regaling them with stories of local folklore. This also gives him the opportunity to wear a top hat. In his free time, LD writes horror stories and has been fortunate enough to get a few published here and there. His fiction is influenced by the bleaker side of the Lake District landscape; rainy, dripping woodlands, mosses, tarns, wetlands and their sinister ilk. His literary influences include Arthur Machen, MR James, EF Benson, JH Riddel and Algernon Blackwood. He also enjoys Folk Horror films and Peter Cushing.We truly hope you enjoy this unsettling, atmospheric tale that is reminiscent of times gone by. If you would like to hear more from LD Brown, you can find his contact information, current and upcoming work, both as an author and as a ghostly tour guide, and follow him on social media with the links below:Upcoming Works: LD Brown is hoping to get a collection of his short fiction published in the near future.

Tonight, as part of our annual Spooky Sleep Stories series, we'll read the opening to the novella “The Willows”. It was written by Algernon Blackwood, and first published in 1907. Two friends drift down the Danube by canoe, threading a maze of shifting channels, sandbanks, and low islands crowded with willow scrub. The river's moods—eddies, gusts, glittering sun—seem to lean in and watch them, and the thickets along the banks gather like a listening crowd. As night closes, the landscape feels less like scenery and more like a presence with its own designs—most vividly in the willows, which “moved of their own will as though alive.” Blackwood was a devoted outdoorsman and a writer fascinated by the numinous in nature; he often suggested that the wilderness is not merely backdrop but a more-than-human realm. “The Willows” helped define early modern weird fiction by trading blood and monsters for unease and awe, its influence echoed by later authors across the genre. H.P. Lovecraft praised it as the finest supernatural tale in English, and readers still come to it for that distinctive sensation of the world turning subtly, inexorably, strange. — read by 'V' — Sign up for Snoozecast+ to get expanded, ad-free access by going to snoozecast.com/plus!

Two friends drift down the Danube by canoe, threading a maze of shifting channels, sandbanks, and low islands crowded with willow scrub. The river's moods—eddies, gusts, glittering sun—seem to lean in and watch them, and the thickets along the banks gather like a listening crowd. As night closes, the landscape feels less like scenery and more like a presence with its own designs—most vividly in the willows, which “moved of their own will as though alive.” Blackwood was a devoted outdoorsman and a writer fascinated by the numinous in nature; he often suggested that the wilderness is not merely backdrop but a more-than-human realm. “The Willows” helped define early modern weird fiction by trading blood and monsters for unease and awe, its influence echoed by later authors across the genre. H.P. Lovecraft praised it as the finest supernatural tale in English, and readers still come to it for that distinctive sensation of the world turning subtly, inexorably, strange. — read by 'V' — Sign up for Snoozecast+ to get expanded, ad-free access by going to snoozecast.com/plus!

Text usIn tonight's story, we journey into the untamed wilderness with The Valley of the Beasts, written by Algernon Blackwood. Here, nature is not a backdrop but a living, breathing force—one that watches, waits, and punishes those who dare to tread too far into its shadowed heart. This haunting tale reminds us, as Aldo Leopold once wrote, of “a fierce green fire dying in her eyes”—that strange, eternal knowledge belonging only to the wolf and the mountain.CreditsProduced by Mickie EberzNarrated by Spring Heeled Jack (Anthony Landis)Story by Algernon BlackwoodAll original music written and performed by EmpressClosing track: I Fucked the Devil Once by EmpressSupport the showDemented Darkness https://open.spotify.com/show/2ausD083OiTmVycCKpapQ8Dark Side of the Nerd https://open.spotify.com/show/6cwN3N3iifSVbddNRsXRTuFoxhound43 https://rumble.com/user/Foxhound43

In a rare surfacing in the contemporary world, JF and Phil discuss a film that has just been released. Bryn Chainey's Rabbit Trap is psychological horror in the tradition of Repulsion, Jacob's Ladder, and Angel Heart. But it is more: a metaphysical film exploring the mystery of sound and the Otherworld of Faerie—an excursion into that weird country, so deftly explored by Arthur Machen and Algernon Blackwood, where wonder and terror perform their eldritch duets.
