Fireside Ghost Stories
Fireside Ghost Stories originated from my annual Christmas Ghost Stories, when listeners told me they would prefer not to wait a whole 12 months until the next scary story.
I’m Jon Briggs, and once a month I now gather those listeners back to the fire for a monthly ghost story, written and read as these tales once were: slowly, intimately, and with room for unease to settle. These are stories of voices that return, places that remember, and moments where something is almost explained but never fully resolved.
If you first found these stories at Christmas and felt they lingered with you enough to want more, Fireside Ghost Stories is where that tradition continues.
