Did you know “The Iron Shroud” by William Mudford was the impetus for Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Pit and the Pendulum”? Well, it was. I decided to read it (and next, Poe’s iconic tale), so we can compare the two for similarities and differences. I wonder which one you like best?
Listen in as speculative fiction writer and Bram Stoker Award Finalist Thersa Matsuura reads and shares some great tales. Each episode aims to showcase the most immersive storytelling with both classics and Thersa’s own writing accompanied by high quality soundscapes, created for hours of relaxation. Also check out her other podcast, Uncanny Japan for Japanese folklore, folktales, cultural tidbits and superstitions!
