THIS EVENT HAS TAKEN PLACE
Members of the Uncanny Collective read this absolute classic ghost story by M. R. James LIVE via the Zoom link we’ll be sharing here and on our social media 10mins before the event.
Paxton, an archaeologist who holidays in Seaburgh, inadvertently stumbles across one of the three lost crowns of Anglia, which legendarily protected the country from invasion. He digs it up and soon comes to regret doing so.
Written a few years after the end of the First World War, “A Warning to the Curious” ranks as one of M. R. James’s bleakest stories.
