Tonight, we’ll continue with The Petit Trianon, adapted from An Adventure by Charlotte Anne Moberly and Eleanor Jourdain, first published in 1911. This episode is part of our Spooky Sleep Story series, where we share classic tales of the strange and mysterious. In Part One, the two English academics described an uncanny afternoon walk through the gardens of Versailles in 1901—an experience they could neither explain nor forget.

In this second part, Miss Morison and Miss Lamont revisit the scene and begin to investigate what happened. Their return visits bring no repetition of the strange events, yet each discovery only adds to the puzzle. The vanished paths, missing buildings, and contradictions in the landscape leave them wondering whether they had truly stepped into another century.

What began as a curious outing gradually turns into a quiet obsession. Tonight’s reading follows their continued search for reason amid the unaccountable, and the lingering question of what, exactly, they had walked into that August day.
