Complete Ghost Stories by M. R. James

At midnight on April 25, 2021 I could not sleep so I went down stairs to read The Uncommon Prayer-Book that had this quote:

Psalm cix, and at the head of it, just between the number and the Dens Iaudem, was a rubric, ‘For the 25th day of April’.

Which was just fantastic–the Book of Common Prayer reminds me of John Killen being in hospice–the first time I saw this book. April 25 is two days after Jack & Shakespeare’s birthday which is easy and fun to remember.

I should have been tripped out and scared by this bzooty, but I was not.
