EnCrypted Horror - narrated by Jasper LEstrange | "Sredni Vashtar" by Saki | Classic horror stories | Audiobook @EnCryptedHorror | Uploaded June 2021 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
A sickly boy is domineered and constricted by his puritanical aunt. His only escape is through his imagination - and the polecat-ferret he keeps hidden in the shed, around which he forms his own religion. But what prayer will he make to his ferret god Sredni Vashtar?


This audio narration of Saki's "Sredni Vashtar" includes music and sound effects. It is part of the EnCrypted: Classic Horror Podcast series.
