4.0 out of 5 stars Tap into the mind of one of the greatest ghost story writers of all times, March 12, 2007
This short collection is guaranteed to make you feel eerie in those cold, dark nights when you stayed home alone to read. But then again how else to savor these stories? Here is a pointer. Get your hands on a copy of this book sometime around mid-day Friday. Blow off your friends for the night and go straight home. Wait until the daylight is just a memory and then sit with this book on your favorite old chair, preferably near a window, and delve into it with only the nightstand light on. Take time reading each page, relish each word, don't pay attention to the creepy scratching on you window, or the squeaking in the other rooms, it's all just in your mind. Whether you'll remember about the serial murders in the book, or the ghostly apparitions- it won't matter. What'll matter is how you experience reading about them...give it a try, be brave...

5.0 out of 5 stars I Love Reading This!, February 26, 2012
The stories are really good and a few are pretty creepy. I spend alot of time finding scary stories and this one really cuts it all out. My favorite ones are The Vine and The Thing At Nolan. Buy this book if you want a few scary stories!
