Dreadful Tales no. 4Dear Readers, Here at Dreadful Tales we re-live the great ages of storytelling, that great age of gay songs played in pastoral parks, yarns spoken around the firelight, pictures viewed by blazing gaslight. In those fair days, a person knew his town by it's distinctive qualities and the strengths of character of the men and women carried a poem of strength that our statesmen furthered through great example. It is from those days, those glowing days, from which arrived the first dream-coloured tales of the imagination. We at Dreadful Tales strive to bring about the return of those grand old days. We thank you for joining us again. ...
