The Lost Room by Fitz James O'Brien

My twin is visiting and I played this for her. She said you could read her the dictionary and she would listen.

I think this Irish ghost story writer like another ghost story writer Ambrose Bierce served in the American Civil War. Looking forward to this. What a way to start the weekend..Happy listening everybody where ever you are in the world. Looking forward to the usual phenomenal narration.

Never heard of this author or the story before. Great story and your narration brought it to life. I'm sad and angry about what happened to you and Amazon. It's unbelievable. I will always support you in every way I can. You're a fantastic storyteller and I listen to everything that you post. Thank You For Being There ❤

Hi, Tony. Great choice today. A bit of the writing reminds me of Wilde talking about Gray's descent into sensualism. I also enjoy your comments at the end of the reading. But my scrambled brain is now thinking of the Hound of the Baskervilles needing flea powder and a de-worming tablet! ❤

Getting ready to immerse self in your reading Tony. Night night people ❤

I LOVE We have always lived at the castle. Hope you will one day record it.

I love the passage about the piano harboring the soul of the music!❤🎉

Thank you so much for this and I got some catching up to do….. you have been busy Tony!💛

Always a lovely “Notification”, a Tony Walker’s Ghost Story Channel upload; thoroughly, excited, as I am unaware of this writer. Off I go…

I had never heard of this writer until now. You are correct: his descriptions and dialogue are lush! Your narration was so suitable for this story. I will seek out more on this author and listen to more of your narrations. :)

Thanks Tony, excited to listen to this tonight, 👏💛

Every night, my first stop on YT is to see if there's a new story! Working my way through all of these amazing narrations! Thank you, Tony! 🧡🖤 What a beautiful description of a piano!

Me sorted for tonight ❤

Thank you, Tony.

I loved this story (and The Crimson Weaver as well). I agree that the description of the items is essential to the significance of their loss. It also sets the mood of the weird tale, very important to set us up for the desired emotional response to the eerie interlopers. I found it very interesting and enjoyable that this story inverts the trope of an exorcism or laying of a ghost. Instead, the living man is driven from the physical space and can never return. Great selection and great reading, I enjoy your performance more and more each year. Thank you.

Just gorgeous writing, and could not be betterl read~! Thanks.

Great art choice. Scary yet comfy room. Read us stories Tony ....... we love them all

I fell asleep my first couple times trying to listen. This last time i woke up in the middle and when he was listing off his belongings that he saw in the room for the last time before the door shut, it made me think to myself "oh he just lost everything" akin to losing all of your belongings in a fire. I absolutely loved this. I'm going to listen again right now while I'm at home alone. Not something that happens very often but I couldn't think of a better way to spend my alone time. Thank you Tony, and i very much enjoyed your opinions and information at the end. I feel like I took in this story very much as you described. I always enjoy your talks at the end but this one i felt like you taught me a few things as well as having a fellow reader to compare thoughts with. Thx much 🖤✌️ I must add I'm so sorry for what you are going through with Amazon. I was kicked off of Ebay and paypal for a reason I still to this day don't truly understand. It was to put it truthfully because someone at eBay didn't like my opinions or politics. I can't imagine how awful it must be to have this huge oligarchy essentially steal your work. Things are heading in a bad way when it comes to things like this. Freedom of speech is a cornerstone of a free and healthy society for a reason. God speed, i truly hope that there is something you can do about it. It really saddens me to think that all of you're writings are now not yours. Best wishes and prayers for you going forward 🙏🏼

“In the end, we will not remember the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.”.

Such a wonderful reading, thank you for a new author and story
