This week on Unpleasant Dreams, Cassandra reads the eerie ghost story “Oh, Whistle, and I'll Come to You, My Lad” by M.R. James. First published in 1904 and now in the public domain, this chilling tale is part of James’ Ghost Stories of an Antiquary collection.

The story’s title is inspired by a 1793 poem of the same name by Robert Burns, which Cassandra also reads in this episode.
