To bring to a climax this brief celebration of some of the horror stories we've done on the podcast (and ArranSound radio) over the last four years, here's a perfect story for Halloween itself. When I performed the first version of this story at the London Horror Festival, it was compared to the work of H. P. Lovecraft but the actual inspiration was a local legend, here in the south west of Scotland, of the "Haunted Ships" off the Galloway coast. This is a time of the year when, in Celtic lore, between the human world and the realm of the supernatural, whether embodied by ghosts or the Sidh (fairies) is thin indeed: hence this is the perfect Halloween tale.

Continuing this eerie ressurection of classic horror stories from the M.I.S.T vault, here, in three parts, is my radically modernized, very Scottish, very Glasgow, reinvention of Edgar Allan Poe's Fall Of The House Of Usher. (Poe, as I point out in the intro, had very close childhood connections to Ayrshire here in Scotland, pretty much immediately across the water from where I sit typing this.
