About this audiobook
On a winter's night, as the old year slips silently into the new, shadows stir in forgotten corners, and the past refuses to rest. In
The Experiment, M. R. James once again proves himself a master of quiet horror—where the chill creeps not from the cold, but from something far older, and far less forgiving. Subtle, strange, and unsettling, this is a tale that whispers its secrets, if you dare to listen. Perfect for a solitary listen by candlelight, just as midnight strikes.
