  • No one is better than Jackson at capturing the terrifying undertones that can exist just beneath the surface of mundane social relationships, or playing on our unsettling sense that our polite society is at all times just barely able to control our penchant for cruelty.

    This story is HILARIOUS, brilliantly read!!!!!!! I love the shocked way they discus the thefts ‘delightedly’ and the mean admitions about those who got the dark room… Anne is an ‘agent provocateur’!!!!!! Fantastic ❤️❤️❤️

    She is so freaky, I cant listen now.
    I have to steel myself.

      I listened.
      No one does madness like shirley Jackson.
      Could you do a short Rugh Rendell?
      She also does insanity terrifyingly well.

    She's famous, so I can't complain. But I do not like Shirley Jackson stories. I'm not sure I even understand why. But I just do not like them. Nice reading, though, as always.

      Thanks! Her stories are unique, and I think you either love them or prefer a different kind of style.

    I love your channel, and you as a writer, but as a vet editor of primetime network and cable hits, your cold open music reminds me of a frkg soap opera. And a depressing one at that.
    But, I love your work.
    Did you hear about Sherlock Holmes Magpie being demonetized by WEFTube? I think thats completely fkd.
    Cheers, brother

      I was just thinking as this story began how much I love the opening music.

      I like the music, it reminds me of being inside on a rainy night by a cozy fire 🔥 👻

      I’ll tell y’all what it is, is you definitely either never grew up in the eighties or seventies, and had to listen to the bad, disco era depressing AF muzac that they’d inject into everything- or you loved it and seventies soap operas. My gf is considerably younger than me, and SHE loves it too.
