I feel like Ray Bradbury almost needs no introduction. As a kid in the 80s, I was astounded at the Disney film, Something Wicked This Way Comes. It ticked all the boxes to my young mind. When I was in high school, I discovered the richness of his storytelling in Dandelion Wine. When I discovered audiobooks, I heard him read to me The Martian Chronicles. He was a great friend of Ray Harryhausen, the great pioneer of stop motion fantasy and adventure films in the 70s and 80s. My father-in-law painted something for Mr. Bradbury, who wrote him back, saying that he had placed his art above his typewriter. Ray Bradbury died in 2012.
Today’s story was originally written in 1948, in the winter edition of Planet Stories. After extensive research it appears the copyright was not renewed.
And now, “Asleep in Armageddon”, by Ray Bradbury.

I learned about Katherine Mansfield from the Pens and Poison Podcast. Professor Alex Moffett talked extensively with host Liza LEEza Libes about Telepathy in literature. I’ve included a link to the episode in the show notes.
Apparently, today’s story, written in 1920, is one of the first instances of communicating telepathically in fiction. Keep in mind it was written over a hundred years ago. It reads like contemporary fiction to me. Mansfield was a friend of Virginia Woolf, and you can really feel her influence, as we weave in and out of the thoughts of each character. It’s almost an experimental piece, feeling out the world of unspoken communication. I hope you like it.
And now, “Psychology”, by Katherine Mansfield.

Today’s program is part of the larger anthology “For the Blood Is the Life, and Other Creepy Tales”, a collection of classic spooky stories curated by me, and narrated by the Utah Audiobook Narrators. We each took a story and ran with it! So if you like today’s tale, follow the link in the show notes to pick up your copy of this collection of creepy classics – narrated by my Utah Audiobook Narrator friends.
Today’s story is taken from Chapter 31 from Life on the Mississippi. Twain was fascinated with the new science that came from fingerprinting, and also used it as a plot device in his novella Pudd’nhead Wilson.
And now, “A Thumb Print, and What Came of It”, by Mark Twain.
