Caution: Studies show that this audio causes misery in 4 out of 5 children... Dear Listener, Before you throw this awful audio to the ground and run as far away from it as possible. you should probably know why. This audio is the only one which describes every last detail of the Baudelaire children's miserable stay at Heimlich Hospital, which makes it one of the most dreadful audios in the world. There are many pleasant things to listen to. but this audio contains not one of them. Within it are such burdensome details as a suspicious shopkeeper, unnecessary surgery, an intercom system, anesthesia, heart-shaped balloons, and some very startling news about a fire. Clearly you do not want to hear about such things. I have sworn to research this story, and to record it as best I can, so I should know that this audio is something best left on the ground, where you undoubtedly found it. With all due respect, Lemony Snicket Performed by Tim Curry
