In 'The Wailing Well', three boy scouts find more than they bargained for when they search for a haunted well, while 'For the Blood is the Life' tells the story of a mysterious mound and a murdered girl's dreadful vengeance. And in 'An Episode of Cathedral Histor'y, the uncovering of a stone tomb unleashes a terrible force of darkness.Evocatively read by four of our finest actors, and with atmospheric music, these bloodcurdling tales are perfect listening for long winter nights.
