Title: The Feast in the Abbey

Author: Robert Bloch

Narrator: Jonathan Dunne

Original Publication: 1935

Public Domain: Yes

Series: Timeless Terrors

Number: 111

Description:

The Feast in the Abbey is a grim and atmospheric tale of monastic corruption, forbidden rites, and creeping supernatural dread.

Set in a remote medieval abbey shrouded in secrecy, the story follows a devout monk who begins to suspect that something profoundly unholy festers beneath the pious rituals of his brethren. Whispers echo through candlelit corridors, forbidden books circulate in shadow, and strange preparations are made for a feast unlike any sanctioned by the Church.

As the night of the gathering approaches, sacred vows give way to blasphemous ceremony. What begins as uneasy suspicion grows into mounting horror when the narrator discovers the true nature of the abbey’s hidden devotion — an allegiance not to heaven, but to darker, older powers that hunger for tribute.

Bloch’s prose drips with gothic atmosphere: crumbling stone cloisters, guttering tapers, echoing chants, and the suffocating weight of spiritual decay. Beneath the medieval setting lies a deeper theme — the terror of corrupted faith and the peril of secret knowledge guarded behind holy walls.

Narrated by Amazon-bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne, this performance captures the oppressive atmosphere and mounting dread of Bloch’s dark vision. The Feast in the Abbey remains a haunting excursion into cloistered horror, where sanctity masks sacrilege and the feast is prepared not for man alone.
