The Shout

on BBC Radio 4 FM

Charles Crossley believes he has the power to 'shout' people to death, to split their souls into pieces. During a country cricket match between the patients of the lunatic asylum where he resides and the local villagers, he tells the story of his magical power and the effect it had on a local couple, Richard and Rachel, who inadvisedly invited him to their home.
