Saint Patrick's Day - Ancient Lights

from Happy Horrordays Hosted by Matthew Wood

Algernon Blackwood was a believer in supernatural events and one of the greatest crafters of weird, ghostly stories. Since Americans associate Saint Patrick's Day with leprechauns, fairies, and the like, his tale "Ancient Lights" seemed like the perfect choice on this chilly March night. Our theme music this week is Vivek Abhishek's "The Door." As always, please check out his royalty-free music on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_x7-wAuE2A And don't forget to celebrate every season with a scare! Happy horrordays!
