The Well Told Tale

Latest Episodes:

Dracula - Part 1 (of 20) Sep 06, 2023

Show notes

Those of a faint heart beware, our new Tale is a dark fantasy and horror classic: 'Dracula' by Bram Stoker. Tales of vampires weren't new when Stoker wrote Dracula; he borrowed heavily from Eastern European folklore and popularised stories of vampires. Published over a century ago, 'Dracula' still has the power to terrify. Younger listeners, proceed with caution as we embark upon our longest Well Told Tale to date!
