The Battersea Poltergeist - You’re invited to The Haunted Library

Download You’re invited to The Haunted Library

This library is home to curious things. Strange tales. Unanswered questions. Stories that linger longer than they should.

Hosted by Colin Morgan (Merlin, Belfast) with guest host Katie Leung (Harry Potter, Bridgerton), The Haunted Library invites you deep into the stacks to hear works of classic horror brought to life, from Gothic novels to pulpy penny dreadfuls.

Some tales begin with a mystery, others with a bargain that should never have been struck, and a few with something stirring in the dark. You’ll encounter haunted houses, hidden secrets, dangerous ambitions, ghosts, monsters, uncanny apparitions and impossible transformations.

Listen on for Part 1 of our first tale, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson. And if you like what you hear, just search for The Haunted Library wherever you get your podcasts.

The Haunted Library is open. Come in. Stay awhile.
