After the Party - Night and Day by Virginia Woolf
Step into the quiet aftermath of a gathering where unspoken tensions linger in the air. This week’s Sleepy Time Story brings you Virginia Woolf’s Night and Day . As the guests depart, the real drama begins—subtle glances, veiled confessions, and the quiet power struggles between men and women take center stage. Let Woolf’s rich prose and keen observations lull you into relaxation as you drift into slumber, wrapped in the elegance of early 20th-century manners and unspoken desires. Close your eyes, breathe deeply, and let the whispers of post-party revelations carry you away to dreamland. Sweet dreams.

REPOST - Halloween and Christianity - The Book of Hallowe'en by Ruth Edna Kelley
Hi friends. Unfortunately my chest and voice are still wrecked from having the flu so I can’t record anything that people would want to listen to. So here’s the second part of 2023’s Halloween reading. Be warned that traditional Halloween traditions may be a bit disturbing, but I left out the nasty stuff. This spooky episode shouldn’t leave you sleepless. We continue the exploration of how pagan traditions were subsumed into Christianity, and how even some Christian traditions began to be viewed negatively after this association was created. We also finish off with a few fun traditions of regions like Brittany as we say goodbye to this particular book.

Sorry friends, back to school time means my daughter has brought home a fun new illness which means I have no voice or energy, so I’m pulling this weird one out of the archive. Be warned that traditional Halloween traditions may be a bit disturbing, but I left out the nasty stuff. This spooky episode shouldn’t leave you sleepless. Learn some of the traditions and tales of continental Europe, including the surprising revelation that Britain was considered to be the ‘Land of the Dead’ by communities on the Channel coast of France. As the mysterious land they could see on clear days was otherwise unknown to them. Learn about how pagan traditions became ‘evil’ and which ones were adopted by Christianity.

I keep life away from Sleepy Time Tales, as it’s intended as a refuge and respite, but I do want to acknowledge that for me, and many others, it’s been a rough year. Although for me it has also seen a lot of growth, change and joy. For others the year has been short of joy and the future may seem a bit dark. But with love, respect and community we can face the challenges ahead. And I will be here to try help by giving you a good night’s sleep. Because life is a tiny bit easier with rest.

Memoirs of Extraordinary Popular Delusions by Charles Mackay
Memoirs of Extraordinary Popular Delusions by Charles Mackay We pick up this week learning about how private enterprise came up with the plan to save the English economy by exploiting the new frontiers of South America through forming the South Sea Company in 1711. Driven by the promise of ships full of gold coming from the native tribes of the New World a frenzy of speculation in stocks in the company drove stock values through the roof. However, the riches failed to materialise as Spain, in control of most of the New World would not allow free trade from their English rivals. But this didn’t prevent some people becoming wealthy from the scam while ruining many, many others.

Retelling History for Bedtime - The Dark Ages, 476-918 by Charles Oman While the history of the Western Roman Empire after the fall may be fascinating to many, to most it’s probably so boring that tales of Theodoric, possibly the greatest Germanic king of Italy will be guaranteed to help you get a good night’s sleep.

It’s Time To Sleep in the Days of the Comet
In the Days of the Comet by H. G. Wells Fall asleep to this week’s podcast retelling one of HG Wells’ lesser known works. It’s supposed to be an apocalyptic story, but we’re busy at the moment with the romantic attempts of an embarrassing teenager. Hope you’ll be asleep before we get to the really cringy stuff. Story (07:04) SleepPhones, our exciting new partnership In our experience the best way to experience the bedtime stories of Sleepy Time Tales is with some type of headphone or earbud, but they can be cumbersome and uncomfortable. So we’ve partnered SleepPhones, manufacturers of headphones designed specifically to sleep in! They use a thin speaker fitted to a comfortable headband and have options from the cost effective wired headphones to the convenient Bluetooth model and will work with Sleepy Time Tales to improve your night’s sleep. To check them out go to sleepphones.sleepytimetales.net to check them out and support Sleepy Time Tales. New Merch Store!! I’ve partnered with TeePublic to setup a new merch store. But because I’m no visual artist I’m taking advantage of a great TeePublic feature that allows me to share the works of other creators; expose them to my audience, allow their work to be purchased, and receive a small cut myself.

Bedtime tales from History – Woman’s Work in Music
Apparently through most of the renaissance a woman’s place was to support her husband. But it’s still quite interesting to see how the relationships of composers worked out, but not interesting enough to keep sleep away. Story (07:21) New Merch Store!! I’ve partnered with TeePublic to setup a new merch store. But because I’m no visual artist I’m taking advantage of a great TeePublic feature that allows me to share the works of other creators; expose them to my audience, allow their work to be purchased, and receive a small cut myself. Check out the storefront at https://www.teepublic.com/stores/sleepy-time-tales?ref_id=25247 or go directly to store.sleepytimetales.net or merch.sleepytimetales.net . I’d also like to issue a call.

*After I’d finished recording the audio for this episode news came out about the passing of Peggy Lipton, the actress who played Norma, the diner owner. Even if one has never seen Twin Peaks you will recognise her from one of her many roles in television over the decades.* So who killed Laura Palmer, as revealed in Dale Cooper’s dream? Oh, he forgot. Oops. But Laura makes it to her funeral on time, despite the FBI forensic expert’s attempts.
