A Visit from St. Nicholas (Bonus Epidode)

On the annivsary of its first publication on December 23, 1823,  Sweet Bunny Radio Plays brings "A Visit from St. Nicholas" to life.

Originally published in a newspaper in Troy, New York, this poem will go on to be a staple of the holiday season and defining the modern Santa Claus. The original poem was published anonymously, but  later attributed to Clement Clarke Moore, who claimed authorship in 1837.

From the Author:

When I first thought about The Day, I Was Santa Claus, I was thinking about how good it felt to donate some time to a food bank for the first time. It caused me to remember those less fortunate when I thought I was at the bottom. Thus, Jim Williams was born. Hearing this production from Sweet Bunny Productions brings a tear to my eye and reminds me we all can do something to make someone else’s Holiday a little better. Especially in a year when we have all been thrown in the same boat and are all out on rough seas. Please enjoy this story with your heart as well as your ears. Thank you.

The Ghosts of Lake Erie

Welcome to the live (recorded on Halloween) broadcast event of the 100 Ghost Story Adventure podcast. Tonight, live from the campus of Lake Erie College via Podbean.com, we will be sharing several of the campus ghost stories.

We will hear about “Tiberius,” the campus mascot credited with saving students from the Memorial Hall Fire; “Stephanie,” the student who haunts the fourth floor of College Hall; and a personal experience with Mrs. Morley, the ghost of Morley Music Hall.

These stories will be featured as we complete a nine-story Hyakumonogatari Kaidankai, a ghost story game from Feudal Japan, rumored to attract spirits to join our gathering.  

Our regular cast members, Amanda and Stephen will be sharing their own ghostly experiences in “Jared” and “Olde Towne Hall Theatre.” 

A special thanks to the Lake Erie College Community, especially Dr. Jerry Jaffe for inviting us to campus (and reading a part of the script).

 So enjoy the show as we bring these stories to life again.
