Stranded in the center of Grand Central Station, a pretentious nightmare of a woman who makes everyone else's life hell finds she has a first class compartment on a very special train....

Marjorie Bowen (1885-1952) was a prolific author of some 150 books and counted Arthur Conan Doyle, Mark Twain, and Graham Greene among her many admirers. Her most enduring work is her tales of the ghostly and supernatural, her favorites of which she collected in 1949 under the title The Bishop of Hell and Other Stories.

This collection of 18 short tales, a novelette, and a short novel takes the listener inside the dark imagination of Elizabeth Engstrom, author of acclaimed horror classics like When Darkness Loves Us. In these stories, you will hear about a woman asked to be complicit in her own mother’s death, a grandmother with a macabre hobby, a bizarre, phallic-shaped flower that portends evil for a married couple, a father whose son is caught up in a sinister government experiment. These are weird and unsettling tales that will linger with the listener.

There is darkness in the human spirit that is inconceivable, and when that darkness reveals itself the results can be shocking. When the horror comes not from a typical madman or the monsters we expect, though, the terror seems to strike not just at our mind but at our very soul. Such is the nature of this dark exploration into the mind of a killer, a killer not yet old enough to drive.
