Public Domain: Yes Description First published in 1906, The Wood of the Dead is a haunting tale of folklore, isolation, and supernatural mystery.

A traveller stopping at a lonely country inn hears of a mysterious woodland known as the Wood of the Dead. What begins as a strange local legend gradually becomes something far more unsettling, as Algernon Blackwood blurs the boundary between folklore, dreams, and supernatural reality.

With its remote roads, ancient woodland, strange local tales, and dreamlike atmosphere, The Wood of the Dead is a masterclass in quiet supernatural horror. Blackwood transforms the natural world into something mysterious and deeply unsettling, where the familiar landscape seems to conceal secrets of its own.

Narrated by horror author Jonathan Dunne.
