Woof! That voice.....the possibilities for audiobook narration! Oh my heart!

This really showcases how the smallest adjustments to tone and cadence can evoke a completely different character.

I love how Geoff effortlessly shifts his voice from one character to another. 👏👏👏

Yeah that’s impressive-

I'd just like to say, that I think you have an amazing talent, and really enjoy your songs, narrations and creative flare. Keep up the great work.

Vincent Price and Thurl Ravenscroft are applauding you on the other side Geoff. Your voice has the perfect tone to both soothe and terrify the listener. I love the creepiness of this and can't wait to hear more. Happy Halloween

Almost half an hour of hearing this lovely deep voice. What bliss.

Lying in bed shortly after midnight listen to this story and being both spooked, soothed and amused all at the same time, this narration truly has it all and is a great way of ending a long day.

Thank you for this reading. I can t read myself to much cause i am dyslexic but i appreciate people reading for me. Plus this quiet reading is easy for me to understand even if english isn t my langage. I am french.

I literally said "Oh, no, don't drink the tea" out loud, like the poor kid could hear me. Nice job on the pleasantly creepy atmosphere, Geoff!

I remember reading this in middle school, didn't know Roald Dahl wrote it. Beautiful narration BTW, it was both soothing and chilling at the same time.

I just found this!!! If you start narrating books in what little spare time you have I will listen to every single one of them at least once good sir!

I'm listening contentedly, headphones keeping me immersed in the story. No distractions. Suddenly an uneasy feeling hits and I slide my feet back up under the blanket. By the end of it, my knees are to my chin and I'm looking at my door expecting to see a landlady who's off her rocker, hovering in my doorway.

I’d listen to this guy narrate the phone book.

PLEASE NARRATE MORE STORIES OH MY GOODNESS!!!!

*Shudder* Dahl had a way with the creepy stories as much as he did with the whimsical ones! And you, Geoff, read it to perfection. You’re outstanding! Literally! Like, you really stand out! I’m seriously rubbing my goosebumpy arms! All the little sound effects too, the teacup, the fire, etc. Just fabulous!

Your voice is beautiful. What a gift. You are delightful. Thank you

This is amazing. More narrating please.. You have such an incredible voice.

As a retired reading teacher, I would have this and others Geoff has read for my classroom especially Halloween week and others sprinkled through the year. Written copies given to students to follow along.

Right along with my favorite narrator Vincent Price. Your voice is well suited for these types of stories. The subtle sound effects were well placed. The doorbell, the tea set. Good old-fashioned almond smelling Arsenic poisoning. Classic. Loved it.

This story is set in my hometown of Bath, England and it was lovely to hear you narrate this story.

This was a great choice, Geoff. You used the tone and timbre of your voice perfectly here to create a spooky atmosphere. This story is positively chilling - a perfect example of how a story doesn’t need to be gory or graphic to be scary and unsettling. Leaving a bit to the imagination of the listener/reader is one of the greatest tools a writer can use.

Your voice is perfect for this! Gives me chills! 💙🌨

Beautifully narrated by the one and only Geoff Castellucci. This story was very good and creepy indeed. Thank you so much for sharing this with all of us! 🎃💀🕷🕸👻🦇🍂🌙

I did this short story in high school. Love the smooth tone he reads this in

Wow! A classic I had never heard of but clearly was a gem! Something straight out of an episode of Criminal Minds. Goosebumps from the beautiful narration!

SPOILERS: Weaver's fate was sealed by the end of the story. Bitter almonds, if anyone is wondering, is the flavor of Cyanide, a poison which she likely used to kill those other two guests. It tastes like bitter almonds because that's literally what gives bitter almonds their flavor. Weaver drank a whole cup of tea that the lady poisoned, so he's doomed even if he doesn't drink another cup. The lady mentioned those two dudes before him "still being here, on the third floor, together," even though she had said before "we have (the house) all to ourselves!" when Weaver first arrived. She killed the two other guys, and left their bodies where no one would see them, on the third floor. Weaver's likely joining them soon. She only had those two young men as guests because she only accepts people she want's to kill, and they have to be "just right" in her words. All the remarks about Weaver are her being happy she found someone she thought was "worthy" of being killed and taxidermized by her. Also, her taxidermy skills are apparently amazing, and she seems to have an obsession with pretty people/animals. She likely picked the young men based on how good they'd look as taxidermy. She mentioned one dude's clear skin, and another's teeth being less white than Weaver's. She was marveling at his teeth, because white teeth are something a taxidermist couldn't change, they'd have to luck out on having their "subject" have nice teeth in life. She was happy she got lucky and found someone to kill who had nice teeth, because she sees him as a taxidermy project, maybe the best one she's found yet. Of course, the reason those two guys were famous "in the papers" is because they were both disappearance cases, missing persons. Not missing anymore, of course, but only Weaver and the lady know that. Weaver's not going to be much help for that, though. That's all I noticed as of right now, if anyone has anything to add, feel free to mention them below.

Excellent! Please consider doing more of these readings in the future. Thank you.

The notification dropped during the afternoon school pick up and I’d left my headphones at home, so glad I finally got home to listen to this, I think this has now overtaken The Raven as my FAVOURITE Geoff narration

Fantastic. Also so refreshing to hear someone not from the UK...actually pronounce things and places correctly for once. Roald would be delighted.

Amazing job, I look up to you so much. You have inspired me in my theatre and drama class. If not for you I wouldn't have realized how much I loved it

When it got closer to the end, a memory got unlocked. I had actually read this story as a kid in middle school, but had forgotten the title until now.

Oh my god I loved this! Geoff, you are amazing. Your songs and your narrations are out of this world. It gave me the chills!

I love to listen to you read, Geoff. Thank you so much! :)

Omg that’s so cool. My 6th grade teacher showed me this 2 years ago

Ohhhh yesss, another narrative, thank you, Geoff!!! I have waited by listening to telltale heart a lot. Again I love the chill chilly vibe, your voice is so perfect for it! May I suggest a Lovecraft story next? I would be very interested in how you as the narrator would interpret it. Happy Halloween to you all! 🎃 We will never get enough of you narrating for us, right y'all?

You. Apologizing?!*

Geoff's filling our dreams to the brim with fright again!

I remember reading this for the first time in 7th grade, and my classmates who had never read anything by Roald Dahl but just knew Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory were absolutely horrified and I, having read Dahl for a while at that point, loved every single word of it. So so good!

When I’m watching voiceplay and I get a notification for this, never clicked so fast!!

Ohhh now I know what my daughter and I will listen to on our drive to her school perfect length to be able to listen to the whole thing 😍😍😍

You have GREAT story telling abilities. I was totally mesmerized by the story so much so I was expecting a scary wicked laugh. Can't to hear you tell another one. Happy Halloween.

Gorgeous narration. Absolutely brilliant.

Most spoken word productions are fine and even fewer are memorable. THIS is memorable.And, I think my chest hair grew chest hair during this listen.
