Description
Once again we have Ghost Stories for Christmas in the tradition of the BBC's MR James inspired intermittent television series.
John Charrington's Wedding is a creepy tale by E. Nesbit.
Edith Nesbit may be more well known to you for her series The Railway Children.
Patrons get a bonus ghost story The Secret of Macarger's Gulch by Ambrose Bierce. I picked this because of Bierce's brilliant mix of genuine horrors with comedy of manners and wordplay.
Happy Holidays from Blake and Karen!
