If you don’t, good for you. Our differences in taste and opinion are what makes this world such a wonderful place and we are very fortunate to live at a time when our entertainment choices are almost without limit. I choose stories to narrate based on my personal taste. I don’t think every one of them is a masterpiece, but I find something to enjoy in all of them. They are usually early twentieth century. Sometimes you might find the language, attitudes, representations objectionable to your modern sensibilities. A wise man once said “The past is a foreign country…” It can certainly be nice to visit from time to time, not to mention illuminating.💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀If you like, you can donate in the following ways:Patreon: patreon.com/encryptedpodYouTube channel membership: youtube.com/c/EnCryptedClassicHorror/joinOne-off donation: ko-fi.com/encryptedpodcastYou can now also say THANKS (on YouTube) with a SUPER THANKS!LIKE, COMMENT, SHARE - it all helps the show survive and prosper!If you want to discuss the show, talk business, or have any ideas for stories you'd like to hear in future episodes, contact me: encryptedpod@gmail.com💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀About the story:"Behind the Wall” by Violet Jacob.

I try and do voices and accents to distinguish between characters as it can help the listener, but I’m not Meryl Streep, nor have I ever claimed to be. Wish I had her money though. I do a wide variety of mostly vintage (early 20th century) stories on this channel. Naturally, the stories reflect the attitudes and language of the time. They didn’t always know any better. But they did dress smarter and look good in hats. Sometimes pet animals die in these stories (though not in this one). When it happens, try not to weep, just hold your own pet animal a little more tightly.

If you don’t personally like it you’re in luck. There are simply dozens and dozens of narrators who don’t do this. I do voices to help differentiate between characters and sometimes I change the pitch of my voice for female characters or children. You might not like it, but whenever I don’t do this, I’ve had complaints from listeners saying they can’t differentiate between characters. Damned if you do, damned if you don’t. I select stories that I like from my wide reading of vintage horror, supernatural and weird fiction. I don’t pretend that they are all masterpieces, but all, I believe, have something to recommend them. At least, I found something in them that resonated and which I thought was worth sharing.💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀If you like, you can donate in the following ways:Patreon: patreon.com/encryptedpodYouTube channel membership: youtube.com/c/EnCryptedClassicHorror/joinOne-off donation: ko-fi.com/encryptedpodcastYou can now also say THANKS (on YouTube) with a SUPER THANKS!LIKE, COMMENT, SHARE - it all helps the show survive and prosper!If you want to discuss the show, talk business, or have any ideas for stories you'd like to hear in future episodes, contact me: encryptedpod@gmail.com💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀About the story:"The Grey House” by John Metcalfe.

If it’s not your personal cup of tea, consider yourself lucky to be on a website that offers hundreds (if not thousands) of other videos that will be more to your taste. If I read too fast did you know you can actually slow the playback down on YouTube? If I read too slow did you know you can actually speed me up? If you can’t read the subtitles against the thumbnail, did you know you can change them in YouTube by making them larger or putting a different colour behind them? In fact, they’ve thought of everything. I do accents and voices to help you differentiate between the characters. I like to add a bit of drama. I do it in the hope of providing a good listening experience, not because I’m “full of myself”. The stories I read are often quite old. Language changes, so do ideas. Try and see the humanity in them rather than mining them for perceived offences. That way unhappiness lies. Sometimes a dog dies (not in this story!) but no real dogs have ever been harmed in the creation of this podcast…to my knowledge.💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀If you like, you can donate in the following ways:Patreon: patreon.com/encryptedpodYouTube channel membership: youtube.com/c/EnCryptedClassicHorror/joinOne-off donation: ko-fi.com/encryptedpodcastYou can now also say THANKS (on YouTube) with a SUPER THANKS!LIKE, COMMENT, SHARE - it all helps the show survive and prosper!If you want to discuss the show, talk business, or have any ideas for stories you'd like to hear in future episodes, contact me: encryptedpod@gmail.com💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀About the story:"The Story of the Inexperienced Ghost” by H.G.

The Bowmen & Out of the Earth by Arthur Machen | Folk horror/classic horror | Audio narration EnCrypted Horror - narrated by Jasper LEstrange 2024-04-21 | In 1914 Arthur Machen published “The Bowmen”, a patriotic supernatural tale intended to boost the morale of British soldiers fighting in the trenches and those at home who had heard reports of the horrors of warfare. However, much to his consternation, Machen’s story was taken as fact by a public that desperately wanted to believe. It spawned the legend of The Angels of Mons. His 1915 short story “Out of the Earth” deals with the aftermath of “The Bowmen” controversy, exploring the ways that myths and stories can take on a life of their own by examining some peculiar happenings along part of the Welsh coast.This original recording is an audio presentation by Jasper L'Estrange for EnCrypted Horror. “The Bowmen” by Arthur Machen (1914) and “Out of the Earth” by Arthur Machen (1915).You can hear me discuss this story by becoming a channel member and listening to episode 17 of the EnCrypted Postmortem: youtu.be/DRds3Dz9Qqk0:00 "The Bowmen"9:20 "Out of the Earth" Part 121:55 "Out of the Earth Part 230:53 Outro****CHECK THIS OUT****Hear me join the cast of Tony "Classic Ghost" Walker's new audio drama "Ashridge"...youtu.be/-FE5LXWCcQo?si=Te9LFLwU1V-TjHjkCREATOR’S NOTE: These recordings contain sound effects and music because that’s what I personally like to listen to, and what I enjoy making.

As you will see from the comments, a lot of the listeners also like it. If it’s not your thing, please feel free to listen to the many other narrators who are voice-only. I’m sure they’ll be happy to meet you. I do accents and voices to help distinguish between characters, but please keep in mind that I’m not Michael Sheen or Meryl Streep, nor have I ever claimed to be. Sometimes when I voice a female character, I will raise the pitch of my voice. If this causes you distress, I am sorry…but imagine how confusing it would be if all my female characters sounded like the baritones in a male voice choir. These stories are recorded by a rank amateur using substandard equipment in a room with appalling acoustics. If this bothers you, please send money so I can buy better equipment and a new house. Also, I try and pronounce all words correctly, but mistakes can happen. Think of my errors and idiosyncrasies as a charming reminder that you are listening to an actual human who has tried to imbue his narration with personality and drama…and not a soulless AI-generated voice. Finally, the vintage stories I read may contain words you've never heard of and things that may offend your modern sensibilities. Luckily the smart device you're listening on also functions as the most complete reference book you could wish for, and your modern sensibilities may well have offended the author...so let's call it quits.EDITORIAL NOTE: I made a slight amend to the text because I believe there was a point in the original where it was unclear which character was speaking.💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀Supporting my workIf you like, you can donate in the following ways:Patreon: patreon.com/encryptedpodYouTube channel membership: youtube.com/c/EnCryptedClassicHorror/joinOne-off donation: ko-fi.com/encryptedpodcastYou can now also say THANKS (on YouTube) with a SUPER THANKS!LIKE, COMMENT, SHARE - it all helps the show survive and prosper!If you want to discuss the show, talk business, or have any ideas for stories you'd like to hear in future episodes, contact me: encryptedpod@gmail.com💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀About the story:"Kecksies” by Marjorie Bowen.

The Black Stone Statue by Mary Elizabeth Counselman | Horror story narration EnCrypted Horror - narrated by Jasper LEstrange 2024-02-09 | The resident of a rundown boarding house becomes intrigued when a familiar face comes seeking a room. The man has returned from South America with a strange story and even stranger cargo. But will it be his undoing…?This original recording is an audio presentation by Jasper L'Estrange for EnCrypted Horror. “The Black Stone Statue” by Mary Elizabeth Counselman (1937).You can hear me discuss this story by becoming a channel member and listening to episode 13 of The EnCrypted Postmortem: youtu.be/OTvjBCPS8YMNOTE: My recordings are intended to be an immersive experience featuring music and sound effects. If you don’t like these elements, there are plenty of narration channels that don’t have them and they’d love to hear from you. This is a hobby/side hustle. I’m an amateur at sound recording and production but I do my best to make something listenable. I do voices to differentiate between characters but I’m not a professional voice actor or narrator. Some of these stories are old and contain words and attitudes you might not like. They do not necessarily represent the views of…well…me. Sometimes a pet dog or cat will die. Horribly.💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀Supporting my work:If you like, you can donate in the following ways:Patreon: patreon.com/encryptedpodYouTube channel membership: youtube.com/c/EnCryptedClassicHorror/joinOne-off donation: ko-fi.com/encryptedpodcastYou can now also say THANKS (on YouTube) with a SUPER THANKS!LIKE, COMMENT, SHARE - it all helps the show survive and prosper!If you want to discuss the show, talk business, or have any ideas for stories you'd like to hear in future episodes, contact me: encryptedpod@gmail.com💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀About the story:"The Black Stone Statue” by Mary Elizabeth Counselman.

Grey Sand and White Sand by Helen de Guerry Simpson | Dark short story | Narration EnCrypted Horror - narrated by Jasper LEstrange 2024-01-24 | A landscape painter obsessed with capturing the essence of the local marshland becomes convinced that the land is hiding its secrets from him. But when he starts to believe the woman he lives with knows the secret his obsession grows both deeper...and darker.***CONTENT ADVICE: This channel aims to deliver an immersive experience somewhere between an audiobook and a radio drama. Music and sound effects may be used to enhance the reading as this is what I personally enjoy. If you don't like this, there are plenty of similar channels that don't do this and they'd love to meet you. Similarly, I'm not a trained actor but I do try and do voices and accents to help listeners differentiate between characters. If it's an American character I'll do my best attempt at an American accent (rather than say a Birmingham, England "Brummie" accent). If this kind of thing annoys you, again look elsewhere. Also, I am mostly choosing stories from a certain time period that I think have something to recommend them. They won't be to everyone's taste, and may contain...wait for it...values, ideas and language that were prevalent when the stories were written. They do not necessarily reflect the views of the management. Finally, I'm an amateur doing this as a hobby with only a few hours a week to devote to it, not making much money from it, recording with the cheap equipment I've managed to scrape together in whatever less-than-ideal space I've found to record in, editing and mixing it in the idiosyncratic way that works for me, and trying to deliver something that I can stand to listen back to without cringing, which anyone is able to listen to for free if they wish (and which at least some people subscribing to this channel seem to enjoy). Something to bear in mind in case you thought I did this at Abbey Road with Trevor Horn twiddling the knobs.Ta. ***This original recording is an audio presentation by Jasper L'Estrange for EnCrypted Horror. “Grey Sand and White Sand” by Helen de Guerry Simpson (1925).You can hear me discuss this story by becoming a channel member and listening to episode 12 of The EnCrypted Postmortem: youtu.be/t1FduxEuQ7QCHAPTERS:0:00 The coming storm19:13 The conspiracy of silence27:32 Different futures35:49 A kind of sacrifice43:46 Losing the light53:01 Outro💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀Supporting my workIf you like, you can donate in the following ways:Patreon: patreon.com/encryptedpodYouTube channel membership: youtube.com/c/EnCryptedClassicHorror/joinOne-off donation: ko-fi.com/encryptedpodcastYou can now also say THANKS (on YouTube) with a SUPER THANKS!LIKE, COMMENT, SHARE - it all helps the show survive and prosper!If you want to discuss the show, talk business, or have any ideas for stories you'd like to hear in future episodes*, contact me: encryptedpod@gmail.com(*I can't promise anything and I prefer not to receive original unpublished manuscripts)💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀About the story:"Grey Sand and White Sand” by Helen de Guerry Simpson.
