This CD contains a recording of an old radio adaptation of Le Fanu's "Schalken the Painter." Jim Rockhill has sent the comments of R. J. Warren, who has heard the program. He writes: "the show was 'The Wooden Ghost,' and it was a 'Weird Circle' program broadcast as of December 3, 1944. The show's extant, and I may have a copy of it in my personal collection, so 'stay tuned,' as they once said. The usual caveat applies: 'The Weird Circle' is a deeply flawed show and the quality of weird tales adaptations varies considerably!'"

An excellent study of the story that brings into play E.T.A. Hoffmann's "The Sand Man," and works by Balzac. Le Fanu creates in his story a "vision" that leads to "vacancy." Discusses a number of Le Fanu's works, especially Uncle Silas and "Green Tea." Basically, these characters see darkness. Thus, Le Fanu presents an emptiness and vacancy in man's precarious position between life and death.
