- "The Lamp," a short story by Agatha Christie, is a haunting exploration of grief, innocence, and the supernatural. The narrative is centered around a young boy named Geoffrey and his mother, who move into an old, seemingly ordinary house. However, the house holds a tragic past that soon begins to manifest itself through eerie and inexplicable occurrences.
Geoffrey, a sensitive and lonely child, becomes the focal point of these supernatural events. He is drawn to an old, flickering lamp in the attic, which seems to be a conduit for the restless spirit of a deceased child who once lived there. As Geoffrey's fascination with the lamp grows, his behavior starts to change, worrying about his mother and the family friend, Dr. Haworth, who is staying with them.
Christie masterfully builds an atmosphere of suspense and dread, as the story unfolds with a sense of impending doom. The narrative delves into themes of maternal love, the innocence of childhood, and the lingering presence of the past.
"The Lamp" stands as a testament to Christie's versatility as a writer, adept not only at crafting intricate mysteries but also at weaving tales of psychological and supernatural horror. The story's chilling conclusion leaves a lasting impression, making it a memorable piece in Christie's oeuvre.

The unmistakable voice of Christopher Lee. Such a relief from the tinny, soulless AI flooding CZcams now. Thank you!!!
Agree, I avoid AI like the plague!😮
Blade Runner 2049 for us all 3 AM...then the ghost of ghost actors past will be our truest Human friend.
Love Christopher Lee. Another Christie story that I haven't heard and don't remember. Thank you.
Agatha Christie often wrote short stories with a psychic or supernatural element, although she never used these in the real solution to a crime novel or crime short story. I have often wondered whether she believed in the supernatural, or simply used her abundant imagination to write stories of this kind. Thank you for the excellent narration.
From her autobiography, I believe Christie was very open to the existence of the supernatural - but more curious about the possibility than absolutely convinced 🙂
I think it was rather "trendy" at the time.
I could listen to Christopher Lee all day. His wonderful and expressive voice makes this sad story magical.

Is this a truly awesome reading by Christopher Lee? I see you've got a Disclosure of Digital Content link attached here. Sweet Holy Mother of God---and I've never heard or read this story by Agatha Christie before---is the story genuine? The product is very well done---but why must we constantly doubt our senses now? IDK, but I do. I know that there now exists software that can mimic the writing styles of famous authors, as well as sound software that can mimic human voices, too!!!!!!!!
Too many speech mistakes. AI
The story is indeed an Agatha Christie original.
So sad😢
