Good evening, my friends, and welcome back to Horror Hill. I’m Erik Peabody, your host on this stroll into the garden of devious delights, and tonight we’re going to be reading a story from TheVesper’s Bell. You might remember previous stories by The Vesper’s Bell that we’ve featured, including “Still Awake,” and “Hoofprints in the Snow.”Tonight’s tale opens with just about the worst way a person can wake up: disoriented, groggy, and on an operating table. 

This isn’t any normal operating room, though, but a large surgical theater at least 100 years old. As if this wasn’t enough, our narrator is paralyzed, has almost no memory, and... is that a brain in a jar next to him? This one is particularly grisly, listeners, so steel yourselves. Also, I’d like to mention that Rissa Montanez of the Creepy Podcast will be joining me today, performing several roles in this story. Please join me in welcoming her to the show.
