Dark Adventure Radio Theatre® presents an adaptation of Prosper Mérimée's classic weird tale "The Venus of Ille" as a Nate Ward adventure! The story bounds to life with a cast of professional actors, thrilling sound effects and an original orchestral score by Reber Clark.

Archeologist Nathaniel Ward returns to the Isle of Wight and recalls a strange incident from his younger days. While viewing Roman ruins on a local estate he's invited to stay for a wedding. Ward uncovers an unusual Roman artifact. Will the discovery prove auspicious for the young couple, or will it unleash a strange and terrible wrath? 

The CD edition will feature the 75-minute audio show plus a collection of props to enhance your listening experience. Like other DART shows, it features great props from the story including:*

  • A magazine article about real tennis by an Olympic medalist
  • BONUS ITEM - pre-order customers will get a page of curious Vectian folklore...
    All of these great extras will be complemented by the fantastic artwork of illustrator Darrell Tutchton in the style you've come to know and love from other episodes of Dark Adventure Radio Theatre®. Everything else you ever wanted to know about Dark Adventure Radio Theatre® is right here.

    As with all DART titles, the CD version of The Iron Maiden includes a free digital download of the show - no CD player required.

    Why can't they leave things buried

    Listening to these adventures is always a delight. It pleases the senses hearing the adventured played over my radio gives me the sense of listening to a serial as it was meant to played. The acting is beyond reproach! If ever these are transcribed to actual movies just tell me where to send the money! Also, love the props as my binders are now at near capacity!

    Just got done listening to this story and must say well done. While the story was being played out I
    found myself on the Isle of Wight as a observer to the goings on. It is a great performance that quite
    removed my sense of disbelief. Thank you for helping the horrors of the so called real world for a
    while.

    Another Delightful Entry!

    It's always a pleasure to sit down and listen to a new episode of DART, and this one was no different. I quite enjoyed it, picked up the book it's based off of, and plan to enjoy both a few times while I await the next entry!

    Enclosed by the Iron Maiden! - Another great Nate Ward tale!

    Great job DART! The team at the HPLHS does it again, with another fantastic story, featuring the intrepid Nate Ward, I find I'm enjoying these productions easily as much any of their other marvellous interpretations of the works of HPL himself. Living as I do in the south of England, I know the Hampshire coast and have been to the Isle of Wight a few times, I think my next visit will have a little more of an eldritch flavour than past ones though! Great performances from all the cast as usual. Keep up the good work HPLHS (DART)
