Audiobooks Narrated by the Great Tim Curry
2026 is merciless. We lost another one, people. Pour one out for a legend. I'm devastated. Clue is one of my all-time favorite movies. I saw Rocky Horror Picture Show on the Queen Mary when I was in high school. They wrote slut on my chest and had me perform sapphic erotica for the audience. I had misread the vibe and was wearing a sailor suit my friend had cut the legs and crotch out of. It was an incredible (eye-opening) evening for me. We will miss you so much, Tim.

You're absolutely killing it with these lists. Here. You dropped this. đ
awww thank you friend!! đŠˇ
This is how I find out? đđđ what a week
what a week indeed, I'm so sad
Whenever a celebrity that I really liked passes I do one nice thing in their honor. Not in a creepy/parasocial way (though it probably is đ) in a you brought me joy and I want to share that with my community way. So like, even leaving the quarter in the Aldi cart or paying attention when I enter a store to hold a door open or help with something heavy. Small things that I "throw out " to them. Your making this list is a kind thing. Sharing books. However the universe works, hope he sees this. đŠľ
I don't think that's creepy, I really love that and think that goes beyond my little attempts to appreciate them! I don't make lists a ton, just once in a while, and with these, I usually just assume that the fans of theirs here on PB are sad about their passing, but I think many of us want to celebrate their lives and the work they have put out that is meaningful to us. I hope he knows how much joy he brought to the world. đŠľ
oh i had no idea he did audiobooks, this is such a lovely list and so needed right nowđĽşđ
Yeah, he did a ton of them!! Thought some of us might want to hear his voice đŠˇđ
Thank you for this, forever missed Diva down đ
terrible week for divas tbh đ
Now I need to pester my library to acquire all of these (they only have Vagabond, the Series of Unfortunate Events books he did, and the Sabriel series, which I haven't read yet so that is a good start).
I think I may have read Sabriel in middle school, but I don't remember it at all anymore. I definitely eyed that cover a lot! I have been considering revisting it tbh and this might be my push!
I think some of them (the classics I think - Dracula, A Christmas Carol, and Journey to the Center of the Earth) are Audible exclusives đŤ
Yeah, won't be listening to those AE books, but that's okay, there are others to request (when I get around to it).
Thank you for these lists! Omg now I want to finally read Dracula but I canât find the version he narrated, where did you find it?
I got the list from Tim Curry's website tbh, and I am pretty sure that one, Journey to the Center of the Earth, and A Christmas Carol are audible exclusives đŤ
Love this so much đđŤśheâs one of my favorites too
Precious person. Thank you for this list! I can't hear the books myself 𦻠but I'm happy to have something to recommend to other fans of his
Thank you for this list! First time I ever heard Tim Curry's voice was him reading The Happy Prince (Oscar Wilde) and Stolen Thunder (the story of when the ice giants steal Thor's hammer) on a Storyteller tape when I was maybe 5 years old and I have adored him since then. Today is a sad day, and seeing this list brings some sunshine.
