M.R. James (1862-1936) was an absolute master of the ghost story, and foundation stone of modern horror. His work influenced authors such as H.P. Lovecraft, Ramsey Campbell and Stephen King. His stories, including Ghost Stories of an Antiquary, remain popular today.
Robert Lloyd Parry is a writer, actor and storyteller. He started 'The M.R. James Project' in 2005 with solo performances of James's works. Since then, the Project has yielded more one-man shows, DVDs, audiobooks, documentaries, magazine articles, a guided walk, and the anthology Ghosts of the Chit-Chat.
