AN EVENING`S ENTERTAINMENT - By M.R.James

“An Evening’s Entertainment” by M.R. James is a ghost story that unfolds as a grandmother recounts chilling tales to her grandchildren by the fireside. The narrative includes stories within the story, featuring haunted locales, mysterious disappearances, and supernatural occurrences. Central to the grandmother’s tales is the theme of uncovering things that are better left hidden, a common motif in James’ work. The atmosphere is of mounting dread, with the cosy domestic scene contrasting sharply with the horrors of the tales being told. As with many of James’ stories, the nature of the supernatural elements is left to the reader’s imagination, adding to the unsettling effect.

Story narrated by Chris Halton.
