Over a century after they were first published, the ghost stories of M R James retain their power to terrify and amuse. Following his critically acclaimed one-man show A Pleasing Terror Robert Lloyd Parry brings two more of James' classic spine-chillers back to life.

Oh, Whistle, and I'll Come to You, My Lad - a tale of nocturnal horror on the Suffolk coast - is considered by many to be the author's masterpiece. It is beautifully complemented here by The Ash Tree, a story of witchcraft and vengeance down the generations.

"Lloyd Parry is always absorbing, and catches the sense of dread that gives James his originality" The Times


"Wonderful, magical storytelling" The Daily Mail
