Story Time: The Doll's Ghost, by F. Marion Crawford

There's nothing like curling up with an old fashioned ghost story on a chilly evening during the Christmas season. This one's more ghostly than Christmassy, but it first appeared in a Christmas supplement to the Illustrated London Times. It's The Doll's Ghost, by F. Marion Crawford. And today, I'm reading it to you from the 2021 collection of Seth's Christmas Ghost Stories from from Biblioasis. Music in this episode"Sal's Piano Solo" — Blue Dot Sessions, via Free Music Archive"Planet Earth" — Peter D.
