The Red Room by H. G. Wells - Gothic Hor...

SCOTT MILLER
About this episode

He was told the brightly colored red room in Lorraine Castle was haunted. Despite vague warnings from the three custodians who reside in the castle, he is not a believer in such things and ascends to "the Red Room" to begin his night's vigil. The Red Room by H. G. Wells, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, with at least one lost vintage sci-fi short story in every episode.
