90 years ago today, M.R. James passed away in the Lodge at Eton College. It is as the father of the modern ghost story that we chiefly remember and admire him. We hope The Haunted Archive, in some small way, commemorates his lasting contribution to the genre. #MRJames #ghoststories

Just a reminder that this darling thing is still available from @swanriverpress.bsky.social ! Reviewer John Kenny said “One of the strongest single author collections of uncanny and supernatural tales I’ve read in a long time.” Link to buy to follow.
Last week, a gentleman returned this rather dilapidated copy of this famous book to us after 50 years. He had found it in his attic! Presumably this means there is a pristine copy somewhere in our libraries....
We rest our lantern near the stage of performance storyteller & writer @nunkie.bsky.social - Robert has toured the definitive M.R. James project for many years to great acclaim. Just one of the delights to enjoy in the extensive Nunkie repertoire. Delve deeper... www.nunkie.co.uk/theatre-shows
