Conceived during a fog-drenched car ride with nothing beyond the windshield but a horizon-less void, Larry Fessenden and Glenn McQuaid created the acclaimed Tales from Beyond the Pale, audio theater inspired by the vintage radio shows of Alfred Hitchcock and Orson Welles.
Conceived during a fog-drenched car ride with nothing beyond the windshield but a horizon-less void, Larry Fessenden and Glenn McQuaid created the acclaimed Tales from Beyond the Pale, audio theater inspired by the vintage radio shows of Alfred Hitchcock and Orson Welles.
In "Is this Seat Taken?", a young man meets an alluring woman on the Long Island Railroad and slowly comes to realize they have a common past... but maybe not the one she is recollecting. In "The Grandfather", a perfectly ordinary grandfather feeds his perfectly ordinary cat, waiting for his perfectly happy family to arrive for a perfectly pleasant afternoon… until an unfortunate revelation puts them all on a tragic path, if the grandfather can’t unravel their perfect mess first.
In "Man On The Ledge," a man reflects on his life – and imminent death – while perched on a ledge overlooking Manhattan.
Based on the best-selling, award-winning graphic novel series Locke & Key - written by acclaimed suspense novelist Joe Hill (NOS4A2, Horns) and illustrated by Gabriel Rodriguez - this multicast, fully dramatized audio production brings the images and words to life.
The days are getting colder, the nights are getting longer, and as Christmas approaches the time is high for some ghostly tales. As an exclusive gift for Audible members, settle down, snuggle up and listen to four chilling ghost stories, read by Simon Callow. Four great stories, one master storyteller - what could be simpler than that?

Volume 1 features two episodes from the first season, including "Man on the Ledge" by Joe Maggio and "The Hole Digger" by Larry Fessenden. The series was produced by filmmakers Larry Fessenden, Glenn McQuaid, and Lisa Wisely.
In "Man on the Ledge", written and directed by Joe Maggio, a man reflects on his life - and imminent death - while perched on a ledge overlooking Manhattan. Through a series of surprising reveals, what begins as a touching soliloquy on human frailty slowly devolves into a psychotic screed as our ledge-dweller’s misdeeds are slowly brought to light. Starring Vincent D’Onofrio as the man on the ledge, with Larry Fessenden as Bill Coley, the officer charged with talking him down. Featuring John Speredakos, Nick Damici, and Greg Amici.
"The Hole Digger", written and directed by Larry Fessenden, concerns "the summer that everything changed, that summer in Cape Cod when me and my brother first found the hole dug down in the dunes in front of our house. Whether it was for a grave or a treasure, that hole changed our lives for good." Larry Fessenden’s haunting tale stars James Le Gros and Owen and Tobias Campbell, and features Kevin Corrigan, Heather Robb, and Joel Garland.
There are losses whose solutions we evolve in the darkness of the of the unconcous heart.
When one's need will not be denied, honesttt ignorance begets the unintended.
A story well conceived, and written, one told at just the right pase to pull a

What would have made Tales from Beyond the Pale, Season One, Volume 1 better?
the stories are not that bad, however, right in the center of the action, comes a trailer for other titles you can purchase in the series?? really? how cheesy!! i would have probably bought all the titles if it hadn't been for this! very distracting!!!!!
What was most disappointing about Joe Maggio and Larry Fessenden ’s story?
the trailers for other titles to purchase!!!!!!
Who would you have cast as narrator instead of the narrators?
the narrators were fine
You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?
the stories were good, narrators were fine, can't get past ads for other titles in the middle of a story
Any additional comments?
re-release without ads!!!!!
