Novel of the White Powder by Arthur Machen (Bonus 10‪)‬ New Ghost Stories

    • Drama

“By the power of that Sabbath wine, a few grains of white powder thrown into a glass of water, the house of life was riven asunder and the human trinity dissolved” 

I’ve moved the annual summer bonus episode up in the schedule to give me more time to work on the season finale. Alas, I’ve only just about managed to put this episode out on time, nevermind start on the next one. Oh well, finger’s crossed things will still stay on schedule.  

The story I’ve chosen is a weird fiction classic by Arthur Machen. In some ways this is a more traditional supernatural genre narrative than some of his strange and debauched classics like The White People and The Great God Pan. But the gruesome transformation in this tale has always particularly stuck in my mind.
