Podcast appearances and mentions of Algernon Blackwood

In this episode, JF and Phil paddle into the marshlands of Algernon Blackwood's 1907 masterpiece The Willows, a tale Lovecraft once called the finest weird story of all time. They explore how a narrative in which almost nothing happens can conjure a cosmic dread more potent than a legion of monsters, and how Blackwood's genius lies in revealing the spiritual horror latent in landscape itself. Topics include zones, the limits of human reason, and the terror of brushing up against an otherworld that lies just beyond the riverbank—near at hand, yet somehow separated from us by an unbridgeable gulf.

Welcome to Campfire Classics, a Literary Comedy Podcast!! Is Wendigo the plural of Wendigo? Aaaah! It's part two of Algernon Blackwood's "The Wendigo". Still moody and atmospheric, but less with the accents this week. Though it's still that French Canadian so bad it isn't even offensive anymore.

Welcome to Campfire Classics, a Literary Comedy Podcast!! This week begins a four part mini-series, so trap in, y'all. That's right, for the next month, you're getting Algernon Blackwood's "The Wendigo". It's moody, it's atmospheric, and it's full of accents! Well, really one nearly indecipherable accent that I think was an attempt at French Canadian but somehow sounds like Count Dracula doing an offensive cajun dialect.

A popular beastie in today's culture; it holds much more significance with the Algonquian peoples with which it originated. It's also known as the "witiko" and "weeghteko" among others.Originally it was a malevolent spirit or even just a particularly wicked individual, with variations in representation among whichever local folklore it was associated with. Modern variations introduced a cannibalism aspect as well as depictions including a deer-skull for a head complete with antlers.There have always been the same common denominator, however: wendigos are the embodiment of greed and excess.This episode involves the novella by the legendary Algernon Blackwood, published in 1910 in the collection The Lost Valley and Other Stories.A more classical take, and nonetheless incredibly haunting.Music: "Damaged" by Lucas King

You may have heard of Tom Slick, the man who financed many early expeditions in search of Sasquatch both the in US and internationally. But did you know he was also a scientist, military man, inventor, philanthropist, and much more? Learn the strange, fascinating and tragically short history of Thomas Baker Slick Jr. with Heather Moser, Mark Matzke and guest host Aaron Deese.  Email - Monsteropolis@smalltownmonsters.com   SHOW NOTES Monsteropolis: Tom Slick   Welcome back, you lawless knaves.    READER MAIL - got at least one - HERE IT IS, from our friend Christine! — Hi Guys,   First of all, congratulations on the success of your 10th anniversary Kickstarter!  I can't wait to see your new films, especially The Siege of Ape Canyon and The Kinderhook Creature.   I listened with interest to the Monsteropolis episode where you described the changing nature of the appearance of the Wendigo in popular culture from an emaciated human being to one with antlers and a stag's skull. In the fall last year I became aware of the legend of the Leshy of pagan Slavic culture through an excellent YA novel called "Where the Dark Stands Still" by Polish writer A.B. Poranek. When I googled the Leshy I was astounded to see images of what I recognised as the Wendigo. So this got me thinking - is there a Slavic influence at play here too? Perhaps this is something you could look in to!    I am really looking forward to the book and film regarding the Wendigo which I understand may come out next year. I have been fascinated by the Wendigo since reading Algernon Blackwood's novella and there is one passage in particular that always sticks in my mind:   "And soon after he slept, the change of wind he had divined stirred gently the reflection of the stars within the lake. Rising among the far ridges of the country beyond Fifty Island Water, it came from the direction in which he had stared, and it passed over the sleeping camp with a faint and sighing murmur through the tops of the big trees that was almost too delicate to be audible. With it, down the desert paths of night, though too faint, too high even for the Indian's hair-like nerves, there passed a curious, thin odor, strangely disquieting, an odor of something that seemed unfamiliar—utterly unknown."   Christine   (your biggest Scottish fan who lives in Germany

The Willows written by Algernon Blackwood [1907]Two friends are midway on a canoe trip down the Danube River. Throughout the story Blackwood personifies the surrounding environment—river, sun, wind—and imbues them with a powerful and ultimately threatening character.

Confesión (Confession) es un relato de fantasma del escritor inglés Algernon Blackwood (1869-1951), publicado en la antología de 1921: Los lobos de dios (The Wolves of God). Confesión, nos sitúa en la ciudad de Londres, durante una noche de niebla. Allí, el protagonista encuentra un escenario ideal para dejar volar su imaginación. Duda sobre la realidad, sobre la verdadera existencia de las personas en la calle, de todas aquellas figuras que flotan en la niebla como vagos espectros, apareciendo y desapareciendo repentinamente. En medio de esa cerrazón se encontrará con una mujer que, como él, está perdida. La sigue hasta el interior de una casa en ruinas, donde finalmente será testigo de una tragedia en perpetua repetición.

In this eerie holiday story, a young legal clerk prepares for a New Year's getaway by packing his belongings into a large duffle bag purchased from a secondhand store. Borrowing a military kit-bag for his trip, Johnson begins to notice unsettling sounds and movements coming from it, as if something alive is trapped inside. Alone in his dimly lit flat, he begins to notice unsettling sounds and movements coming from the bag. Is it just his imagination, or has the shadow of its former owner followed him home? Terri Lynne Hudson narrates Algernon Blackwood's classic tale of psychological horror, where every creak, whisper, and shadow might conceal something unspeakable... youtube.com/@scarystoriespod --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/scarystoriespod/support

On a bustling Christmas Eve, John Mudbury, an ordinary man with an ordinary family, has been Christmas shopping. Under his arms, he carries presents for his wife and three children. As he starts his journey home, the familiar streets of London give way to increasingly strange encounters.

With each step, the veil between worlds grows thinner until he arrives home with presents in hand and finds things very strange indeed.  Algernon Blackwood's "Transition: A Christmas Ghost Story With A Twist" masterfully blends the mundane with the supernatural.

As an anticipation of our episode out on Monday (12/16), Brian reads "The Kit-Bag" by Algernon Blackwood."The Kit-Bag," originally published in 1908 by Pall Mall Magazine, tells the story of Johnson, a young man preparing to go on a Christmas vacation after helping to successfully defend a particularly gruesome murder case.Alone in his apartment, Johnson begins to experience strange noises and visions. Is it his drunk lodger bringing in the mail? Is it another tenant of the building? Or is it a sinister figure invading his home via his borrowed suitcase (the titular kit-bag). Like an perverse telling of Santa Claus, listen to "The Kit-Bag" find out what's haunting Johnson and whether or not he ever makes it to his promised vacation.

A final night spent on a haunted island brings one dead body the following morning....

Geralmente o termo Eco-Horror refere-se a narrativas que exploram as consequências desastrosas da exploração e da destruição do meio ambiente, muitas vezes apresentando a natureza como uma força vingativa ou como um agente de justiça.  O gênero se alimenta do medo do desconhecido e das consequências irreversíveis das ações humanas, como a poluição, a deflorestação e a extinção de espécies. Filmes como "A Noite dos Mortos-Vivos" (1968) e "A Caverna" (2005) e obras literárias como "O Fogo da Inveja" de H.P. Lovecraft e "A Floresta" de Richard Adams, entre outros, estabelecem as bases para essa vertente, abordando a fragilidade da relação entre humanos e a natureza. Com o aumento da conscientização sobre as mudanças climáticas e os desastres ambientais, o Eco-Horror se tornou uma forma poderosa de criticar a exploração desenfreada e de refletir sobre as consequências éticas e existenciais da interação humana com o planeta. No episódio de hoje, nossos investigadores Andrei Fernandes, Ananda Mida e Jey Carrillo convidam Raphael Fernandes para falar mais sobre a vertente que também serve como ferramenta de alerta sobre os perigos da desconexão entre os seres humanos e a natureza, que convida o público a refletir sobre suas próprias ações e suas repercussões no mundo natural.

Welcome to Campfire Classics, a Literary Comedy Podcast!! Welcome to the second Special of October 2024. This month, Ken is going to be reading the book The Willows by Algernon Blackwood. At five chapters long, you'll be getting one chapter per week! This is, in essence, the meat of the story. If you've enjoyed the last couple weeks set up, strap in, because this one is WILD! The Willows was published in 1907. The organizations Ken mentioned at the top of the episode are Beloved Asheville and North Carolina Stage Company. Email us at 5050artsproduction@gmail.com.

Another solo ep. Readings from "Real Net Worth Of House Of Saudis" by Luke Belmar, "The Witch" and The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson, "The Man Whom The Trees Loved" by Algernon Blackwood, "Les Fleurs" by Thomas Ligotti, and "Bloodchild" and "Amnesty" by Octavia Butler.

On this week's Haunting Season-themed Local Legends episode, the second of four, Martin gathers round the Three Ravens campfire with the acclaimed actor, art historian, and expert in classic ghost stories Robert Lloyd Parry.In case you've not heard of him, since 2005 Rob has been engaged in "The M.R. James Project," a set of performances where Rob, dressed and in character as 'The Father of the Modern Ghost Story,' performs James' terrifying tales to much acclaim, including from the likes of The Times and Sunday Times, The Washington Post, The Guardian, The Fortean Times, The Spectator, and The New Yorker, who said of the M.R. James Project, “Lloyd Parry's mastery of the role is itself an act of possession.”That's not to say Rob is a one trick pony – far from it. He read Classics at Oxford, completed his MA in Greek and Roman Art History at The University of London's Courtauld Institute of Art, and, as an art historian and museum interpreter, he researches and writes websites, audio and multimedia guides, apps, books, and guides for leading museums, galleries and heritage sites including the likes of The British Museum, Tate Britain, The National Gallery, The Fitzwilliam Museum, Royal Academy, and many, many more. In this interview, we focus in on M.R. James and classic ghost stories, discussing writers like Algernon Blackwood, H.G. Wells, H.P. Lovecraft, Charles Dickens, Arthur Conan Doyle, Oscar Wilde, and many others. What makes them so brilliant, and which of their tales would Rob recommend? Moreover, what made M.R. James such a special, singular writer whose influence on weird fiction is probably greater than any writer of the last 200 years?Gather close around the Three Ravens campfire as we get into it, and if you would like to see Rob live (an experience which highly recommend) do visit his theatre company's website and check his upcoming dates at https://www.nunkie.co.uk/scheduleOtherwise, we'll be back on Monday with our third trio of Haunting Season original ghost stories for 2024. So, see you then. We'll be the ones hiding in the shadows... The Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays (Magic and Medicines about folk remedies and arcane spells, Three Ravens Bestiary about cryptids and mythical creatures, Dying Arts about endangered heritage crafts, and Something Wicked about folkloric true crime from across history) plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?Learn more at www.threeravenspodcast.com, join our Patreon at www.patreon.com/threeravenspodcast, and find links to our social media channels here: https://linktr.ee/threeravenspodcast Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.
