A recently uploaded tale of terror, written by E F Benson and narrated by master storyteller, R Crowest. Lushly written and very fitting in that Spring is here in 2023, and Spring is burgeoning in this creepy story. Richard, you've done it again! Expertly narrated as usual, and this time brighter at first, lulling the listener into a false sense of security untill the real terror is unleashed upon the protagonists, and we also. I loved it!

I love me some E.F. Benson. Thank you for your excellent narration. A mild gripe: I am disappointed in Benson's description of elementals. I'm guessing he is interpreting them through his religious background (since A.C. Benson was some sort of religious figure). It's just that I've never heard anyone else describe elementals as "evil beings" or "incarnations of the devil". Those who make a study of the unseen world may at harshest describe elementals as "inimical to mankind" due to the presence of elementals being unhealthy to the balance of the elements in human beings. Most sources describe elementals as being indifferent to mankind, or at worst, they might be known to play pranks on humans, like the fair folk. But when there is religious interpretation of non-physical beings, they seem to always be planted in two categories: angels or demons. I much prefer the Islamic (my grandfather is 100% middle eastern) interpretation, which allows for 3 groups: angels, demons and jinn, which the jinn are given free will, and therefore can be dispositioned towards humans in a variety of ways. It seems a more logical interpretation to me, and the idea of jinn helps to explain all sorts of non-physical beings, which have been assumed historically to be: fairies, kobolds, gnomes, tree spirits, water spirits, elves, and even the modern idea of "aliens" would be more sensibly seen as jinns playing pranks on humans, disguising themselves as "aliens", since the jinn can hypnotically influence humans, and even alter human perceptions and cause out-of-body and other mystical experiences in people by stimulating their brains to produce DMT from our pineal glands. Many "abduction experiences" start to make much more sense if you look at the experience from the viewpoint that the human involved has been thrown into a mystical state of mind by hypnosis and\or natural DMT.

Thank you. Benson occasionally, but only rarely, wrote of benign supernatural beings (Machaon, for example). I suspect the market for his stories was largely people looking for that chill down the spine, the sense of horror at some force beyond our comprehension. Lovecraft admired some of his stories, particularly Negotium Perambulans. If you enjoy tales of the fair folk, may I recommend Sylvia Townsend Warner’s Kingdoms of Elfin, which I’d love to read if I could acquire the audiobook rights - a complex and expensive process, alas. She imagines a complete and beautifully detailed society, and their interactions with humans are complex and varied.

I like your narration very much, but would you consider removing or changing the horror chord if not both at the start and end, at least at the end of your videos? I usually listen to stories while falling asleep, and it is so much louder than the rest that it tends to start me awake.

I'm hoping to be able to add an alternative audio track with narration only. KZitem has had the feature in testing with a few creators for over a year, so hopefully it'll be rolled out to everyone soon.
