Weird Tales ♦ The Doge & Dogess ♦ By E. T. A. Hoffmann ♦ Supernatural, Gothic Fiction ♦ Audiobook Title: The Doge & Dogess Author: E. T. A. Hoffmann https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E._T._A... Genre(s): Horror & Supernatural Fiction, Gothic Fiction Language: English Read By: Expatriate Librivox Recording Summary: This early work by E. T. A. Hoffmann was originally published in the 19th century. Born in Konigsberg, East Prussia in 1776, Hoffmann's family were all jurists, and during his youth he was initially encouraged to pursue a career in law. However, in his late teens Hoffman became increasingly interested in literature and philosophy, and spent much of his time reading German classicists and attending lectures by, amongst others, Immanuel Kant. Hoffman went on to produce a great range of both literary and musical works. Probably Hoffman's most well-known story, produced in 1816, is 'The Nutcracker and the Mouse King', due to the fact that - some seventy-six years later - it inspired Tchaikovsky's ballet The Nutcracker. In the same vein, his story 'The Sandman' provided both the inspiration for Leo Delibes's ballet Coppelia, and the basis for a highly influential essay by Sigmund Freud, called 'The Uncanny'. (Indeed, Freud referred to Hoffman as the "unrivalled master of the uncanny in literature.") Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions. Summary by Goodreads https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

ESCAPE ♦ Classic Radio Show ♦ EP 13 ♦ Pollock And Porrah Man ♦ 10-29-1947
Escape Radio Show 10-29-1947
Episode 13
Title: Pollock And Porrah Man
Narrated by: Paul Frees, William Conrad
Written by: Les Crutchfield, John Dunkel
Produced By: Norman MacDonnell
Genre(s): Adventure, Science Fiction, Supernatural
Language: English
Escape was radio's leading anthology series of high-adventure radio dramas, airing on CBS from July 7, 1947 to September 25, 1954. Since the program did not have a regular sponsor like Suspense, it was subjected to frequent schedule shifts and lower production budgets, although Richfield Oil signed on as a sponsor for five months in 1950.
Despite these problems, Escape enthralled many listeners during its seven-year run. The series' well-remembered opening combined Mussorgsky's Night on Bald Mountain with this introduction, as intoned by William Conrad and later Paul Frees:
"Tired of the everyday grind? Ever dream of a life of romantic adventure? Want to get away from it all? We offer you... Escape!"
Following the opening theme, a second announcer (usually Roy Rowan) would add:
"Escape! Designed to free you from the four walls of today for a half-hour of high adventure!" Summary by Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Escape_(radio_program)
