GO TO TALES TOLD: SEASON TWO
GO T0 TALES TOLD WHENEVER I FEEL LIKE IT!
GO TO THE FIRESIDE STORYTELLING TARDIS
Tales Told When the Windows Rattle resparks the centuries-old tradition of sharing scary stories by a crackling fire during nasty weather. The program features thrilling yet unsettling works by Edgar Allan Poe, Ambrose Bierce, and other authors from the 1800s — along with a few much newer tales.
1.01 “A Stranger”
Ambrose Bierce presents a campfire story about four men who had no one left to tell their story. (NOTE: This 1909 story is set on America’s western frontier and features a presumably white character whose dialog reflects some of the racial insensitivity representative of his group.)
