The Queen of Spades is a fantastic and spooky little tale from Russian literary great Alexander Pushkin. In this episode we enter his magical world of 1830s St. Petersburg, where we attend lavish balls, play cards late into the night, yearn, possibly commit murder, and definitely see some ghosts. 

Note: at the beginning of this episode we say this story was published in 1933; it was actually published in 1833.
