A soft‑spoken reading of Elizabeth Bowen’s “The Demon Lover,” a story that slips between memory, war‑time London, and the unsettling return of a promise made long ago. Mrs. Drover steps into her shuttered house for only a moment — but something is waiting for her, something that remembers her more clearly than she remembers herself.

This recording leans into the story’s quiet dread: the stillness of the empty street, the strange displacement of time, and the slow tightening of a past that refuses to stay buried. If you enjoy atmospheric narration, uncanny domestic spaces, and stories where the haunting is emotional as much as supernatural, you’ll feel right at home. Thank you for listening and wandering into the eerie with me ❤️
