Evanescence: A Ghost Story For Christmas
Chilling tales of terror told around the log fire with a mug of mulled wine and a warm blanket have been a Christmas tradition for decades – nay, centuries! So, this Christmas Eve, in the grand tradition of Montague Rhodes James, we present to you Evanescence: A Ghost Story For Christmas, written and performed by our very own Paul Childs.
The story is generally suitable for all ages but does have some mild language at 5:34 and 8:32 (and it goes without saying that this is a scary story) so parents might want to check that out before allowing their children to listen.
Paul also writes for his website Badgers Crossing where you will find a variety of spooky stories to read, including the full text for this very tale if you’re interested in reading along.
