The Collected Ghost Stories of M. R. James is the title of M. R. James' omnibus collection of ghost stories, published in 1931, bringing together all but four of his ghost stories (which had yet to be published).Montague Rhodes James (1862-1936) was a medievalist scholar; Provost of King's College, Cambridge. He wrote many of his ghost stories to be read aloud in the long tradition of spooky Christmas Eve tales. His stories often use rural settings, with a quiet, scholarly protagonist getting caught up in the activities of supernatural forces. The details of horror are almost never explicit, the stories relying on a gentle, bucolic background to emphasize the awfulness of the otherworldly intrusions. (wikipedia.org)

Collected Ghost Stories by M R James is a collection of twenty-two ghost stories, plus a fascinating essay on the writing of ghost stories. Montague Rhodes James (1862-1936) was a medieval scholar and Provost of King's College, Cambridge. His stories are classics of their genre, understated, beautifully paced and almost never explicit. Their idyllic rural backgrounds and amiable hero make the chilling terror of otherworldly intrusions all the more horrific. The collection is comprised of the following twenty-two stories: The Uncommon Prayer-Book; A Neighbour's Landmark; Rats; The Experiment; The Malice Of Inanimate Objects; A Vignette; Canon Alberic's Scrap-Book; The Stalls Of Barchester Cathedral; An Episode Of Cathedral History; The Story Of A Disappearance And An Appearance; The Haunted Dolls' House; Lost Hearts; Mr. Humphreys And His Inheritance; Martin's Close; The Diary Of Mr. Poynter; The Rose-Garden; Casting The Runes; A School Story; The Tractate Middoth; Two Doctors; A View From A Hill; The Residence At Whitminster; Appendix: M. R. James On Ghost Stories Note: This is not to be confused with the Book ""The Collected Ghost Stories of M R James"" which was published in 1931.

Welcome to the House Of Fear Here you will find scripts originally created for the THEATRE OF IMAGINATION...or, LIVE AUDIO THEATRE stage productions as presented by the NYC Performance Group RADIOTHEATRE. Now, RadioTheatre offers these easy-to-read, easy-to-produce scripts to others who want to produce a unique style of Theatre presentation...as well as, unique content found in the genres of HORROR, SCIENCE FICTION and WEIRD fiction. However, these specially formatted scripts may also be produced as RECORDED WORKS, RADIO BROADCASTS ...or, they may even be used as the basis for FILM and TV presentations. Though most of these scripts have been created to blend both story-telling and cinematic styles requiring recorded SOUND DESIGN, MUSIC CUES and voices on MICROPHONES...in which there are no props, no sets, no costumes...some stories may be adapted to fit TRADITIONAL PLAY format.These are stories containing characters, plots and action you won't find in traditional theatre: mad scientists, giant man eating plants, werewolves, vampires, ghosts and intergalactic invasions....King Kong smashing Radio City Music Hall and climbing the Empire State Building...from the battlefields of war to the internal voice of a man going insane...from a poignant story of a woman waiting for her husband to die...to a screaming skull haunting the new resident of a haunted house Turn the lights down low and turn on your imaginations to fill in the visuals. Many of the longer stories are classic works of world fiction: THE INVISIBLE MAN, THE WAR OF THE WORLDS, DRACULA, FRANKENSTEIN, THE TIME MACHINE, THE ISLAND OF DR.MOREAU, KING KONG, as well as, famous short works from an earlier time by H.G.Wells, Bram Stoker, H.P.Lovecraft, Edgar Allan Poe, Ambrose Bierce, Robert E.Howard...or, not so famous works by long ignored giants of macabre literature, such as, Algernon Blackwood, Edith Nesbit, F.Marion Crawford, etc. Basically, these are tales to be told in near darkness. The scripts require not just great actors, but, great STORY TELLERS. This role is often listed in a cast as NARRATOR. Sometimes, it may be left to the Director's discretion to cast the NARRATOR as either male or female. The story may also require actors to play multiple characters...or, a Director may choose to cast many actors to play these roles. Minor roles may also be recast as either sex. All scripts are expertly crafted for presentation by DAN BIANCHI, Artistic Director and Founder of NYC's award-winning, critically acclaimed Radiotheatre. He has worked over 40 years as writer/director in stage and film media, and, to date, he's the most produced stage writer in NYC. In most cases, the archaic language of 19th Century works has been updated, but, Mr.Bianchi has tried to retain the author's original artistic intention and creation. Characters' names, locations, etc. may be changed. Plots may be condensed, endings may be changed, etc. Remember...the original story was intended to be read as literature and not intended to be presented in a different medium using 21st Century technology. In every case, it is Mr.Bianchi's primary goal to deliver a great story filled with optimal sound design as a most important part of the production. SOUND DESIGN: Sound effects and dramatic music is an integral part of these stories, as necessary as the actors. Scripts contain some, but, not all, printed sound/music cues necessary to make easier reading. Directors may wish to add or change cues. If you do NOT wish to create your own sound design, but, instead wish to purchase pre-recorded cues and music, please contact [email protected].
