Our 2023 Christmas ghost story reading of Jerome K Jerome’s “Told After Supper” draws to its conclusion. After learning all about ghosts in the first reading and hearing some strange anecdotes in the second, we now join the narrator as he braves the terrors of the Blue Chamber.
This reading has been organised by good friend of the Good Friends, Mike Perceval-Maxwell (host of Mr Spike’s Bedtime Stories), taking place on our Discord server. Mike is joined by guest readers Scott Dorward, Sarah Dovey, Rina Haenze, Brian Murphy, T A Newman, Sue Savage and Graham Walmsley.
So grab your trousers off the bedstead, pack your pipe with ghostly tobacco, and prepare to murder as many musicians as you can!
Deck The Halls, performed by the USAFB Concert Band, is in the public domain.
If you would like to read along at home, you can find “Told After Supper” on Project Gutenberg.
