Step into the shadowed libraries of old Cambridge, where forgotten scholars and dusty volumes conceal far more than ancient learning... Written by Arthur Gray (1852–1940)—Master of Jesus College, Cambridge, distinguished medieval scholar, and a contemporary of M.R. James—The Burden of Dead Books is one of the finest yet least-known supernatural tales of the twentieth century. First published in December 1919 in Tedious Brief Tales of Granta and Gramarye (W. Heffer & Sons, Cambridge). Originally written under Arthur Gray's pseudonym "Ingulphus." Like James, Gray drew upon the unique atmosphere of Cambridge's colleges, libraries and scholarly traditions to create an unsettling story in which the pursuit of knowledge leads to something altogether darker. This is no tale of cheap shocks. Instead, it is a subtle, intelligent ghost story exploring ambition, obscurity, envy, and the terrible temptation to reclaim lost youth. It is a haunting meditation on the legacy we leave behind—and the price some might pay to escape it. If you enjoy the ghost stories of M.R. James, E.G. Swain, R.H. Malden, Algernon Blackwood, or A.M. Burrage, I think you'll find Arthur Gray a remarkable discovery. Read by Christopher Halton

 When you hear the words “UFO crash” you likely think of Roswell, New Mexico in 1947. And while that is the most famous of supposed extraterrestrial spaceship crashes, it is by no means the first. In fact, there were several taking place before Roswell became a household name. (UFO Crashes Before Roswell) *** But first – we’ll take a look at Roswell itself… and what might have been behind the crash, the UFOs, and the aliens! (Behind Roswell’s Aliens) *** Numerous travelers have gone missing in Nahanni Valley… and many whose bodies have been found, have been decapitated. It’s no wonder it has been nicknamed “The Valley of Headless Men”. (The Valley of Headless Men) *** In 2016, construction in a San Francisco family’s backyard unearthed a terrifying find… a glass coffin. And the history behind it tells a morbid history of the city. (The Karner’s Backyard Glass Coffin) *** Former Green Beret Jeffrey MacDonald claimed that a gang of acid-crazed Manson Family copycats brutally murdered his pregnant wife and two daughters in 1970, but then he was found guilty. Did he commit the crime, or did the law convict the wrong man? (The Evil Deeds of Jeffrey MacDonald) *** It’s understood that scientifically, alchemy – attempting to turn a substance or element into gold – is impossible. But then, there is that one incident that took place in the early seventeenth century that has some people wondering if that’s wrong.

Once one of St. Louis’s wealthiest and most powerful families, the Lemps built a brewing empire that made them famous — but behind the walls of the grand Lemp Mansion was a story filled with tragedy, loss, and unexplained events. After a series of devastating deaths, including multiple family members taking their own lives, rumors spread that a curse had fallen upon the Lemp bloodline. Today, the mansion is considered one of America’s most haunted locations, where visitors report shadow figures, ghostly voices, and encounters with the spirits of those who never truly left. Was the Lemp family cursed… or is something darker still haunting their home?
