The Crying Boy - Read by Jay Gatling

Welcome to the final episode of the first season of Fireside Stories.

This episode tells the tale of the Crying Boy. A real life ghost story that effected people from all walks of life right across the United Kingdom during the mid 1980s.

This episode was written and produced by Elliot Randall Wood and is read by professional magician and voice over artist Jay Gatling.

Jay has been a magician specialising in wedding entertainment for close to a decade. But since the pandemic halted all live entertainment in the UK, he's turned his attention to using his voice to entertain. We're extremely excited to be one of the first to use these, until now hidden, talents, and urge you to take a look at his Facebook page at Facebook.com/jaygatlingvoiceover and if you'd like to find out more about what he does as a magician please visit his website gatlingmagic.co.uk.
