With the Stennings and their guests gathered round the fireplace on Christmas Eve, Northanger offers to share a very different ghost story, based on a strange and baffling encounter of the year before.

This original recording is an audio presentation by Jasper L'Estrange for EnCrypted Horror. “GANTHONY’S WIFE” by E. Temple Thurston (1926).

You can hear me discuss this story by becoming a channel member and listening to an upcoming episode of The EnCrypted Postmortem, my bonus show for paying YouTube channel members and Patreon supporters.

CREATOR’S NOTE: These recordings contain sound effects and music because that’s what I personally like to listen to, and what I enjoy making. As you will see from the comments, a lot of the listeners also like it. If it’s not your thing, please feel free to listen to the many other narrators who are voice-only. I’m sure they’ll be glad to hear from you.
