Some of us can’t resist the somewhat ghoulish need to be scared, and this book is just what we need for what ails us. Meant for children, adults will certainly appreciate content of this third book in the series. There are some excellent tales, and one, at least, is true. The notes on the background of the tales should not be skipped; they will add to your knowledge and appreciation of the scary tales in the book. And as to be expected by now, the illustrations by Stephen Gammell are scary in their own right, and add much to the stories. This series of children's horror stories was a favorite of my oldest son. He presented me with copies of the books as he was leaving to serve in the Navy. Nostalgia from his childhood. What he remembered the most was the creepy-cool artwork by Stephen Gammell. Imagine my horror when I found out (while I was re-reading the series) that when they reprinted the books as a 30th anniversary celebration, they changed the artwork. While Brett Helquist is a talented artist, what made this book series really great was the strange art by Gammell. Luckily, I have older copies of this series with the weird art intact. I investigated online and found examples of Helquists illustrations. They are great...more of a literal interpretation of the stories....but....it just isn't Scary Stories without Stephen Gammell. Not sure what the publisher was thinking! Scary Stories 3 gathers 25 more stories from folklore. There are notes about the stories and a list of sources in the back. As in the prior books, the stories vary, even including a bit of poetry and a song. The artwork perfectly accompanies the creepy tales. All the tales are middle-grade friendly. An excellent collection of scary stories! I will pass on the 30th Anniversary edition. This series stands out because of the original artwork by Gammell. My son remembers these books 17 years after we first read them because of Gammell's artwork. It isn't the same outstanding series without the original art. I'm glad I have the full collection with the original drawings. These definitely have a permanent home on my keeper shelf! sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

Esta tercera colección de relatos está dedicada a jóvenes lectores interesados en una literatura que despierta su interés desde lo desconocido para causar miedo y terror. Una serie de cuentos de largo aliento que sorprenderán de principio a fin con tramas que intrigan y envuelven a los noveles lectores utilizando con maestría la técnica descriptiva del detalle escabroso, ese que atrapa en el momento más inesperado. Este primer volumen es una antología de cerca de veinte historias clásicas y espeluznantes del género aludido. Al leerlas se entiende el porqué de ciertos consejos, como por ejemplo: no fiarse de nadie, no pisar tumbas en las oscuras y frías noches de invierno, y otros.

Four stars of nostalgia. The review I left for the first book in this series, "Scary Stories to tell in the Dark" fits here, too. Some of the stories are still spine-tingling! These still do hold up after all these years. I hope kids delight in them as much as I did. ( )
