Tony Read 2 Posted December 23, 2011 Author Share Posted December 23, 2011 Bit more info from Wikipedia: Forsyth created as an original work as a Christmas gift to his wife after she requested a ghost story be written for her. Written on Christmas Day, and published near that time a year later, the idea came while trying to think of a setting away from the typical haunted homes, and seeing planes flying overhead. Many have speculated references to preexisting RAF folklore. While Forsyth was a former RAF pilot and could have heard and adapted such a story (either with or without the intent to do so) no references or anecdotal evidence have been put forward to support such claims. Beginning in 1979 the story has been broadcast each year on Christmas Eve on the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) Radio programme As It Happens, read by the late Alan Maitland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
