Five stories, with illustrations, that center on an old house with an adjoining graveyard. The location of the house could be in any town, but the local children know the place is haunted. In one, two boys are invited inside to meet creepy Madame Blackheart and have their fortunes told. In another, a young clarinet student is thrilled to be invited to join a band for his first public performance, but the audience turns out to be exceptionally demanding, and the last story provides a history for the ghostly bride with the beating heart.
These stories are much better than I expected them to be. 3.8 stars… (más)

Here is another proof that this is not the number of words that make a plot bigger than life but the ability of the writer alone to tell it correctly.
Stefan Zweig conveys the reader's sense of fear and thereby unites him with the same fate as the heroine of the book.
The plot is familiar and straightforward, but the burgeoning descriptions made me very pleased.
I enjoyed it, an excellent book.
