Tonight, we’re airing a re-broadcast of the opening to “The Treasure Seeker,” an adventurous fairy tale found in “The Crimson Fairy Book” compiled by Andrew Lang and published in 1903. The conclusion episode will air tomorrow.


In the opening of this story, some shepherds sit around one night telling of the strange things that happened to them in their youth. One of their stories is more exciting than expected- regarding a mysterious dark spirit, The Treasure Seeker of the mountain.
