Reviews
Third listen-Great Stories
LexiBlossom
Wonderful stand-alone stories about a clergyman who experiences the super natural. They are “pleasant” ghost stories (not horrific) and I wouldn’t mind sharing them with school-age children.
not scary, but highly enjoyable

All readers do a great job, but be ready to adjust volume (and sometimes playback speed) when readers change.
