For the most part I enjoyed this series - there are some excellent stories and the cast does a marvellous job of bringing them to life. I skipped one story after a while because it was rather monotonous and I found another tedious because it was 99% shrieking, but overall I’d highly recommend listening!

Some truly scary stories!

The stories are wonderfully dark. Let's hope more of the series are released! looking forward to returning to the world of The Mann on Black!

Great spine tingling stories

I love this collection of radio drama based chilling dramas. They are short stories. Some I enjoyed more than others but overall I’m so glad I purchased this. I love the performances as well as the stories themselves. They are easy to follow and understand, not too weird that you can’t understand then, but, at the same time chilling enough to make you feel uncomfortable, especially if listening alone in the dark. Very enjoyable.

Brilliant!

A time killer that I would have enjoyed listening on the radio to ease the journey time.... Some better than others none particularly scary or chilling..... Like listening to episodes of the old twilight zone TV episodes just maybe not as engaging.
Good narration and drama in the main but glad it was a two for one as I would have felt cheated...

It is what it is......
