M.R.James - A Warning To The Curious "A Warning to the Curious" is a ghost story by English writer M. R. James, first published in The London Mercury in August 1925 and collected in James' book A Warning to the Curious and Other Ghost Stories that same year. The tale tells the story of Paxton, an antiquarian and archaeologist who holidays in "Seaburgh" (a disguised version of Aldeburgh, Suffolk) and inadvertently stumbles across one of the three lost crowns of East Anglia, which legendarily protect the country from invasion. Upon digging up the crown, Paxton is stalked by its supernatural guardian. Written a few years after the end of the First World War, "A Warning to the Curious" ranks as one of M. R. James's bleakest stories.

Saturday Night Serial - H.G.Wells - The Time Machine - Chapter 10 - When Night Came The Time Machine is an 1895 dystopian post-apocalyptic science fiction novella by H. G. Wells about a Victorian scientist known as the Time Traveller who travels to the year 802,701. The work is generally credited with the popularization of the concept of time travel by using a vehicle or device to travel purposely and selectively forward or backward through time. The term "time machine", coined by Wells, is now almost universally used to refer to such a vehicle or device. https://www.spreaker.com/episode/saturday-night-serial-the-time-machine-by-h-g-wells-episode-one--65667760 https://www.spreaker.com/episode/saturday-night-serial-h-g-wells-the-time-machine-chapter-2-the-machine--66001952 https://www.spreaker.com/episode/h-g-wells-the-time-machine-chapter-3-the-time-traveller-returns--66053132 https://www.spreaker.com/episode/saturday-night-serial-hg-wells-the-time-machine-chapter-4-time-travel--66252881 https://www.spreaker.com/episode/saturday-night-serial-hg-wells-the-time-machine-chapter-5-in-the-golden-age--66279486 https://www.spreaker.com/episode/saturday-night-serial-hg-wells-the-time-machine-chapter-6-the-sunset-of-mankind--66443248 https://www.spreaker.com/episode/saturday-night-serial-hg-wells-the-time-machine-chapter-7-a-sudden-shock--66462677 https://www.spreaker.com/episode/saturday-night-serial-hg-wells-the-time-machine-chapter-8-explanation--66617059 https://www.spreaker.com/episode/saturday-night-serial-hg-wells-the-time-machine-chapter-9-the-morlocks--66869960

JR M.R.James - Rats Montague Rhodes James was an English medievalist scholar and author who served as provost of King's College, Cambridge, and of Eton College as well as Vice-Chancellor of the University of Cambridge. James's scholarly work is still highly regarded, but he is best remembered for his ghost stories, which are considered by many critics and authors as the finest in the English language and widely influential on modern horror. "Rats" is a short ghost story first published in At Random magazine (March 23, 1929). It was later included in the anthology The Collected Ghost Stories of M. R. James (1931).

ہے انتہائے یاس بھی اک ابتدائے شوق
پھر آ گئے وہیں پہ چلے تھے جہاں سے ہم

حسرتؔ پھر اور جا کے کریں کس کی بندگی
اچھا جو سر اٹھائیں بھی اس آستاں سے ہم
حسرت موہانی
