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.

Jon Briggs is a journalist,  broadcaster and voice over. You may know him better as the original voice of Siri in the UK ("Daniel" on all Apple devices) or the BBC's Weakest Link quiz show. 

Send me a text - I love hearing what you think of these stories and knowing where you're from!
