Meet Jim and Max. Together with Max’s wife Celia, they run a moderately successful dressmaking company. They have all they could want. Who could ask for more? Well, Jim could for one. It’s the height of the “dot com” days, and Jim thinks he’ll make a killing…He’s right. In fact, he makes such a killing that he finds it necessary to visit the Confessional. And stay tuned after for a little surprise...

Greetings from behind enemy lines. Since last we spoke, this monstrous old house has been overrun with guests - they've stolen my privacy, and also the extensive collection of blankets and spare furniture with which I'd created my little recording nook and all-purpose snuggery. I am *not* pleased. Goodwill-towards-man is one thing, but there are limits, and this sudden crush of humanity has made i...

Day 3, Part 2: Frighted with False Fires - Fire in a crowded theatre - or even a sparsely-populated one for that matter - is hardly the sort of thing one likes to encourage. Especially when the theater in question is the Aldergate Playhouse, which is buried deep underground and has a distressingly mobile museum perched on top of it. At least this time it's not *my* life that's in danger. No, just...

Day 3, Part 1: À la recherche du temps volé - Bit nervous for my blind date with the Chief Constable. Got to hope he's sharp enough to solve Sammie's murder quickly and quietly, but not *so* sharp that he discovers some of the other corpses I've got lying about the place. Metaphorically speaking. Mostly. Anyhow, too many new mysteries need solving to waste time with ancient history. For example: T...

"Do you dare to go down into...THE CELLAR?" Welcome to the seventh number in our continuing horror/suspense anthology series!

When Brent Parker comes home with a special Porcelain doll for his younger sister's Christmas gift...he never imagined that the lady who sold it to him would be telling the truth when she claimed this doll had special abilities. Worse, he never imagined that the power inside this seemingly innocent doll would forever change the life of his sister Katie. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit mega...

Day 2, Part 3: Madness and Murder - All is not well at Aldergate University. Wonderful to be back, of course, but the madness of Sir Reggie lives on in the bizarre mess of mangled books with which he's decorated what's now *my* office. Also, the weather has once again turned foul, and some vile fiend is foiling my attempts to finally visit Bonehenge. Then, of course, there's the matter of Sammie's...

And now...we proudly present "The Defense Rests", adapted by our director/producer Pete Lutz, from a 1938 pulp-fiction story by Julius Long.

For as the current barer of the power of being a medium dies, the powe...

Day 2, Part 2: Encounters With the Local Wildlife - Happy Halloween, Aldergatians all. There may be something sinister brewing at Aldergate University, but at least the locals are friendly. Mostly. This episode finds me crowned king of a silent LARP. I like to think that I was a wise and just monarch for the duration of my brief reign. Then I got lost looking for my office, and almost crushed a st...

Day 2, Part 1: Present Fears and Horrible Imaginings - I hate being frightened. Such an awful, useless feeling. I retract every kind word I ever spoke about things that go bump in the night; I curse them all and wish them plague, individually and as a class. Uff. Welcome back to Aldergate, eh? My first full day starts with unknown intruders and mysterious letters, and apparently ends with me cower...
