Acerca de esta escucha
A BBC Radio 4 dramatisation of the atmospheric murder mystery novel by Agatha Christie, first published in 1961.
A dying woman confesses a terrible secret to her priest along with a cryptic list of nine names. Before he is able to uncover anything more, the priest is struck dead in the fog and the police discover the list in his shoe.
Our hero Mark Easterbrook, a historian, learns of a secretive organisation known as The Pale Horse and of their supernatural connections in the village of Much Deeping. The list of names seems to foretell the deaths of several people and Mark must piece together the clues and unearth the connections between them all.
Who is behind the strange powers of The Pale Horse?
Dramatised by Joy Wilkinson
Directed by Mary Peate

A BBC Radio 4 full-cast dramatisation of Agatha Christie’s darkly suspenseful psychological thriller. ‘Some are born to sweet delight/Some are born to endless night’ William Blake Agatha Christie wrote 'Endless Night' in 1967, and it is one of her greatest - and most unusual - novels. Creepy, malevolent and claustrophobic, it is a story about choices, the nature of good and evil, and grim retribution.

But at her father's house on the banks of the Nile, the priest's daughter Renisenb believes that the woman's death is suspicious. Increasingly, she becomes convinced that the source of evil lurks within their household - and watches helplessly as the family's passions explode in murder.

A blinding snowstorm - and a homicidal maniac - traps a small party of friends in an isolated estate. Out of this deceptively simple setup, Agatha Christie fashioned one of her most ingenious puzzlers, which in turn would provide the basis for The Mousetrap, the longest-running play in history. From this classic title novella to the deliciously clever gems on its tail (solved to perfection by Hercule Poirot and Miss Jane Marple), this rare collection of murder most foul showcases Christie at her inventive best.

A foggy night... a lonely country house... and a woman with a gun in her hand quietly surveying the dead body of her husband. It looked like a straightforward case of murder. Or was it? As the ghosts of an old wrong begin to emerge from the past, the case begins to look anything but straightforward... First staged at the Duchess Theatre in London in 1958, this play ran for 604 performances and is as gripping and ingenious as you would expect from the Queen of Crime.

An interesting way to tell the story
It is definitely not exactly the same story as it was told in the book, but it is a dramatization after all! I liked the book, yet I still like this version because it is concise yet to the point. Loved the performance as well - maybe I am a bit biased, but Jason Hughes would make a perfect Mark Easterbrook.

Different yet the same
There are two radio versions of this story. This one didn't follow the book. Somethings were changed some things removed. (Don't want to spoil so I will not say what is different). I would recommend getting both radio versions of the Pale Horse as it is sort of two different stories. I am biased as this is one of my favorite stories of Ms Agatha.

Good But Not A Favorite
This one really threw me. I never fully got engrossed in the story like I wanted to. I figured it might be the story but after thinking about it I feel its more the dramatization itself that threw me the most. It was hard to keep up with who was who and it was hard to realize what clues was important and what wasn't. The ending completely threw me though I did always suspect the man that was pronounced the murderer so it made since. Overall good but not amazing.
