I know it’s been awhile since I gave you anything new. But you must know by now, that I love a good horror story! I couldn’t resist taking the time to record this one for your Spooky Season enjoyment. Did you know that Bram Stoker stole, and married, Oscar Wilde’s girlfriend? And even though Oscar was not happy about it, they remained friends. They met at school where Bram studied Mathematics. This story is about a student of mathematics that steals away to study uninterrupted in a far away town. It is said to be one of the best English ghost stories ever. Oh, and, trigger warning… if you don’t like rats, don’t listen to this one.
