In Nighttime Stories, the narrator H.P. Nightly reads to you stories selected each week to please, stimulate, or (hopefully) make you think. And if not that, at the very least, we aim to amuse you. Listen on to fill and haunt and dim life, turn your mind like the knob to a closet door you can’t remember, arrest the senses by one means (the spoken word) and fill the void that inevitably comes to us each night.

Episode 6 - The Musgrave Ritual - Arthur Conan Doyle
This week we bring you the story originally intended for last week's episode, though we were overjoyed to be able to share an account of a dark god. Our story today, however, is a story of cold logic unlocking secrets in a world without a god, a world where even the prejudice we all turn toward cannot bar the incision of a well-trained mind.
We hope you enjoy Arthur Conan Doyle's 'The Musgrave Ritual', sometimes known as 'The Adventure of the Musgrave Ritual', a tale of billets, butlers, and bitter acts, and one of how accidentally we might uncover long-hidden secrets of the past.
