    The End of Summer: Thirteen Tales of Halloween , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 493min
    The world's oldest celebration comes to life in The End of Summer: Thirteen Tales of Halloween, an anthology that honors the darkest and strangest night of the year. Each story is designed to be intrinsically and intimately about Halloween - its traditions, its myths, and its effects - and they run the gamut from horrifying to heartbreaking. Halloween night is the tapestry through which a haunted house, a monstrous child, a late-night drive to a mysterious destination, and other tales are weaved. Demons are faced, death is defied, and love is tested. And not everyone makes it out alive. The End of Summer has arrived. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jay B. Scott.

    Mary Barton, Hörbuch, Digital, 143min
    There are stark differences between rich and poor in the Manchester of Elizabeth Gaskell’s novel, Mary Barton. Factory owners such as Mr Carson, do not understand the anger of their poverty stricken workers, and care little for their welfare. For the mill-workers, employment means food on the table and being one step away from starvation, but trying to gain any political power means risking a loss of livelihood. The author does not depict the owners as intrinsically wicked, but shows through her writing that it is characters like The Barton’s who deserve the reader’s sympathy. By the end of the novel, Mrs Gaskell proves that the rich need not be heartless. Language: English. Narrator: Maggie Ollerenshaw.

    Advancing Spiritual Awareness: Overcoming Doubt, Skepticism, and Disbelief, Hörbuch, Digital, 287min
    In this fascinating discussion, Dr. David Hawkins enlightens us about the pathway of spiritual evolution. He shows us the actual innocence of the human mind and the one way to overcome the programming to which all of humanity is subjected. If man is intrinsically innocent and believes what appears before him, how can he arrive at true wisdom and understanding about the world as it actually is, and not just the way it appears? The hope of mankind actually rests on spiritually advanced people, who make up less than 3 percent of the world’s population. Dr. Hawkins states that our own perception is wrong 50 percent of the time! So what can an individual do to be able to truly see for himself? This is explained and demonstrated in this startling and thought-provoking seminar. Language: English. Narrator: David R. Hawkins.

    On the shocking discovery of a passenger's body on the Great Western Railway excursion train, Detective Inspector Robert Colbeck and his assistant, Sergeant Victor Leeming, are dispatched to the scene. Faced with what initially appears to be a motiveless murder, Colbeck is intrigued by the murder weapon - a noose. When it emerges that the victim had worked as a public executioner, Colbeck realises that this must be intrinsically linked to the killer's choice of weapon. However, the further he delves into the case, the more mysterious it becomes. And when a second man is strangled by a noose on a train, Colbeck knows that he must act quickly. Can he catch the murderer before more lives are lost? Set in Victorian England and rich in historical detail, The Excursion Train will hold you captivated from the beginning to the end of its journey. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Sam Dastor.

    The Weird and the Eerie , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 267min
    What exactly are the weird and the eerie? In this new essay, Mark Fisher argues that some of the most haunting and anomalous fiction of the 20th century belongs to these two modes. The weird and the eerie are closely related but distinct modes, each possessing its own distinct properties. Both have often been associated with horror, yet this emphasis overlooks the aching fascination that such texts can exercise. The weird and the eerie both fundamentally concern the outside and the unknown, which are not intrinsically horrifying, even if they are always unsettling.Perhaps a proper understanding of the human condition requires examination of liminal concepts such as the weird and the eerie.These two modes will be analysed with reference to the work of authors such as H. P. Lovecraft, H. G. Wells, M. R. James, Christopher Priest, Joan Lindsay, Nigel Kneale, Daphne Du Maurier, Alan Garner, and Margaret Atwood, and films by Stanley Kubrick, Jonathan Glazer, and Christoper Nolan. ungekürzt.

    The Hermit of Hisarya: The Sam Smith Mystery Series, Book 5 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 275min
    Some people will stop at nothing in their pursuit of wealth and power. Indeed, the greedy will often resort to murder. "You've been through a stressful time recently," my fiancé, Dr. Alan Storey said. "I'm off to Bulgaria to attend a psychology conference so why don't you accompany me and we'll throw in a holiday as well." Great idea, I thought. However, when I arrived in Bulgaria my inquisitive nature impelled me towards a mystery dating back to the Second World War. That mystery involved Emil Angelov, the Hermit of Hisarya. As I delved into the past I stirred up some ghosts, which led to murder and the prospect of spending the rest of my days in a Bulgarian jail. The Hermit of Hisarya is a story of corruption, of murder, and a woman and her 70-year-old dream, offering proof that the past, the present and the future are all intrinsically entwined. ungekürzt.
