Fielden Farrington is an absolute genius. This a straight up ghost story which will haunt you. It is one of my favorites.

It seemed like Beth's mother was keeping her daughter from becoming a murderer. Even from beyond the grave. Good story.
At times, Ann Sheppard sounds a lot like Jean Arthur.

I listened to Pool of Fear a few days ago...it really does keep you on the edge of a cliff til the very end! My favorite one.

A straightforward ghost story featuring none other than my wife, Morgan Fairchild. She's excellent, by the way, as a not-exactly-evil but unhealthily obsessed daughter in mourning. Her conflicted accomplice also turns in a decent performance as a man caught between his conscience and his heart's desire. The downside is some bland and two-dimensional parts by the lead's father and especially her stepmother Millie, which undercuts the suspense.
