"The Mass for the Dead" by E. Nesbit is a haunting Victorian gothic romance where the boundaries between devotion and damnation blur in the shadows. When Jasper discovers that his true love, Kate, is forced to marry a wealthy Spaniard for the sake of her family, his heartbreak spirals into a waking nightmare. In the still hours before dawn, both lovers are separately haunted by a beautiful, supernatural music—a phantom funeral mass. What follows is a chilling, atmosphere-rich tragedy driven by fate, grief, and a ghostly requiem that echoes from beyond the veil of death.
Narrated by horror author Jonathan Dunne.
