    Yes, that’s right. Victorian ghost stories are becoming a regular occurrence on The Poe Show! This time, our ghost story from 1858 follows a man who happens to dine with the devil. After dinner, the two travel to their “journey’s end” together, passing many other lost souls. James Hain Friswell wrote this spooky winter tale over 160 years ago, but the dreary and ghostly narrative is as entertaining today as it has ever been! Now, please enjoy The Oxford Ghost. Otherwise known as...Christmas Dinner with the Devil.

  • The Night Before Christmas

    It's the holiday season, so you know I have to give you an episode all about Christmas! I took off the month of November because I've been so busy, but I'll be finishing up this year strong with two December episodes. Keep an eye out for another Victorian ghost story, coming December 21st for all who enjoy the tradition of spooky tales for the cold winter!

    Twas the Night Before Christmas comes all the way from 1823, written by Clement Clarke Moore...most likely. In this episode I'll also be giving you a little history on the poem, the controversy of its authorship, and how Santa Claus has changed through American and world culture. I also pulled out a tune I wrote about 5 years ago for this episode, which sounded perfect for a Christmas story. Lastly, I do talk a bit about AI. Just a bit.

    Now, please enjoy The Night Before Christmas.

    For this new season of The Poe Show podcast, I am so glad to introduce a new guest narrator to this episode who will narrate some of their own poems. He is one of the most famous American poets of all time, having written 256 poems in his lifetime. Today we are privileged to hear from Robert Frost's own voice the two poems The Road Not Taken and Woods On A Snowy Evening. Yes, this is a mock interview I've crafted with Robert Frost, but if you'd like to see the actual interviews I took these clips from then click the links in the description.
