"Brother, do not try to follow me once you have read this. No good can come of it..." When Clifford Fox QC receives a desperate letter from his estranged younger brother, Simon, he departs his comfortable Yorkshire home to locate him. The letter outlines the harrowing events that have led Simon to the very edge of sanity.

Following a stint at the Brentwell Rehabilitation Unit, failed architect and recovering alcoholic Simon is invited by an old school-friend to Abbot's Keep - a Tudor residence, nestled deep in remote Berkshire countryside. Soon after arriving, he is left to explore the neighboring monastery ruins and discover the house's dark history. But the more he learns, the more certain he becomes that he is not alone at Abbot's Keep, and that nothing is as it seems. But can he stop the house's medieval past repeating itself one final time? And can his brother find him before it's too late?

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Abbot’s Keep is refreshing a hell. Finally, a ghost story that reminds you why the basement is so terrifying!" (Brett McNeill of Rue Morgue Magazine)
"Ashforth does Edgar Allen Poe and Bram Stoker proud delivering a solid contribution to the literary movement. It is time that the ghost story made a comeback. With writers like Benedict Ashforth writing Abbot’s Keep, a revival just might be at hand." (Matthew J. Barbour of Horror Novel Reviews)
"A really entertaining read with a delightful frisson of fear." (Simon Ball of Horror Hothouse)

It was a bit confusing at first. I think because the narrator's voice is more for historical reading. Once you get past that, it is very intense and captivating.

Perfect for a short listen, very intense.

Steeped in prose. This is a ghost mystery of historic telling. Give it a listen 'ol boy.

I rather enjoyed this rather very wordy story.

Such a talented narrator- It felt like I was watching a one man play! An incredible short story brought to life so vividly by Mr. Jerrom.

Wow!

This story was very well written, and pretty creepy as well. Written like an old time horror story, and I was quite surprised to see it as a more contemporary piece. The narrator was good, a good choice for this. He sounded to me like an old time actor, I want to say “John Lawton”, but not sure it that’s right.

At any rate this little story is a good choice if you are short on time and looking for a short, well written, pretty creepy diversion. Check it out! ☺️

Well Written!

I truly applaud this one simply for the fact that it hit all the requirements of a novella. It's rare to me, in truth not very well read... that a short story get 2 suck you in! A drunken brother... another that's used 2 helping his younger brother. What can he do? However now just out of rehab an old friend has chosen to step-up! As he stays in The Keep, things go from having a safe space to come back to the world. Then quickly become a reality he is not at all ready for. Does DNA make one guilty for its sins? Don't go looking for them no matter what you do. the Foxes are out there for the hunt. Are they the predators or the prey & to whom?

💥a blast... enjoyable for every single minute

reader gets too dramatic

A very good ghost story and it was well performed. It was reminiscent of the old Tales From the Crypt comics.

Very Good Ghost Story

Well-written, unsettling horror story. Ric Jerrom is an excellent narrator... his voice conveyed the horror so perfectly. It gave me chills!

Creepy as hell.
