    The ghost of the engineering castle

    Written by Nikolai Leskov

    Narrated by Fred Wolinsky

    About this audiobook

    The Engineering Castle is a real building that still exists. It remains one of the most sought-after landmarks in St. Petersburg, and it is steeped in legend, ghost stories, and lore every bit as much as Nikolai Leskov makes it sound.
