What gets lost in translation, whether or not this story is The Signalman retold, when will there be a band named The Motion Demon, and why trains are easily the most terrifying mode of transportation. Plus, a more acceptable Faces of Death! Welcome to Whiskey and the Weird, a podcast exploring the British Library Tales of the Weird series! This season, we're transmitting our sixth book in the collection, ‘The Night Wire: And Other Tales of Weird Media,’ edited by Aaron Worth. In this episode, our featured story is: Signals by Stefan Grabinski.
