How time flies - another year has passed and it is time for another Christmas Ghost Story.

If you are new to us - Welcome - and if you have followed us for a while - you are very welcome back. We have a first for you this year because this year's tale is an original - never seen or heard - or indeed read until now. It also includes original music from my nephew - Sam.

Set in that narrow hour before midnight, when bells wait in their towers and houses hold their breath. It is a story of echoes rather than apparitions, of something unfinished, and of a presence that does not return to haunt — but to be heard.

The Bells of Marlowe House is told in the best Victorian traditions - with music composed and recorded by my amazing nephew - Sam Gold - who you can find here: @samgold_music.

We are celebrating 10 years of scary Christmas fireside entertainment! This year we reveal the goings on inside Number Ninety. If you have ever toyed with the idea of spending a night in an already haunted house, here is a cautionary tale. First published in 1890 and written by the Irish author B.M.Croker - a women who could boast that the prime minister - William Gladstone - was among her readers.
