One of the Classics

James was a master of the ghost story, and David Collings was a master of being James on these audio books, Only Sir Christopher Lee's performances can rival his. Having said that, this tale is one of James' most shudder inducing stories and one of the all-time GREAT ghost stories in the English Language. If it isn't in your audio library it SHOULD BE!
