About this audiobook
A traveler takes rooms in the town of Vendome, and his landlady tells him about the old gray house that stands empty on the banks of the Loir: shutters closed, garden gone wild, the door sealed for ten years. Everyone in the neighborhood knows it as the Grande Breteche, and everyone has a theory. She knows what really happened there, and it begins with a young Spanish prisoner of war who came to lodge with her.
Honore de Balzac's chilling story of a house with a secret, here called The Mysterious Mansion, is read by Richard Stibbard. Twenty-five minutes of slow-building dread.
For listeners who like classic Gothic tales, told quietly.
