About this listen

“The Thing Invisible” is a story featuring Thomas Carnacki, a detective who investigates cases of an occult or supernatural nature. It is one of five tales of Carnacki's ghost hunting exploits that first appeared serially in The Idler magazine in 1910 and were published together with one more as a collection Carnacki the Ghost-Finder in 1913.

After a good dinner, Mr. Carnacki relates his experiences of ghost-finding to his limited circle of four friends whom he has summoned to his home in Chelsea.

Without giving away the ending, it didn't go the way I was hoping for and consequently this story missed the mark for me. The narrator's fine performance was marred by abysmal sound quality. Don't know when the original was recorded but sounds pre-war! Still there was enough to enjoy in the setting, style and performance to warrant four (albeit generous) stars.

A generous four stars
