If only skulls could really scream, right? I mean, if you could imagine a shriek from dead bone, a shrill coming forth from the eye sockets or a growl emerging from behind the teeth. Can you imagine?
If you are drawn to stories about skulls like I am, you will surely enjoy The Screaming Skull by Francis Marion Crawford.
Published in 1908, this is a classic and exciting read. But this is no ordinary horror story. I suggest you really LISTEN to our narrator, Captain Charles Braddock, tell his story. You are a good listener, aren't you? Because the Screaming Skull is written for those who are willing to go beyond the page, beyond the words, and into the voice of the dead.
