The Ministry of Peculiar Occurrences has many forgotten stories in its Archives. Stories of madcap adventures in all corners of the Empire, dark doings in hidden places, and mysterious devices and artifacts that the everyday citizen should never become aware of for fear it would quite undo their minds.
Archivist to the Ministry, Eliza D Braun (recently and unwillingly reassigned to the Archives) and Wellington Thornhill Books (recently and unwillingly assigned Eliza D. Braun) have selected some cases they feel the public is ready for.
In this episode:
Dust on the Davenport, written and narrated by O.M. Grey
Agent Simon R. Boswell, still considered the green agent of the Ministry, takes on his own a supposed haunting in Islington. Hauntings tend to be nothing too serious for agents specializing in the unexplained; but for Simon, this case supplies surprises of all kinds, around every corner…

I really enjoyed the story. I figured out what was going on about half way through, but Miss Grey threw enough twists in to make the story engaging even as I wanted to close my eyes at what I knew was coming. Fortunately I was in my car and no one could hear me yelling “No, don’t kiss her!”
The audio quality was a little off, but given I’ve heard regular podcasts that are markedly worse for her first time podcasting I give it a thumbs up.
The story brought back a childhood memory of watching Jack Nicholson in 1963’s The Terror. So the scene of her changing became very vivid to me.
