A collection of 40 ghost stories, both old and new. The writers featured include H.G. Wells, Robert Louis Stevenson, Charles Dickens, Nigel Kneale, Washington Irving, E.F. Benson, Ambrose Bierce, Isaac Asimov and Frederik Pohl.
This book is a compilation of some fine ghost tales from various times and places. Put together by Marvin Kaye, this book features stories from some of the greats like Charles Dickens and Oscar Wilde, some traditional tales, and some great anonymous stories.
Kaye includes a tale of his own in the mix, but rightly puts it in the appendix instead of within the main text, not wanting to give the wrong impression. There is also a list of haunted locations, a bibliography for further reading, and a piece entitled "So You Want to Meet A Ghost." This last piece is so good, I really want to adapt it for a video.
Definitely a good edition to any library specializing in ghost stories and supernatural terror. ( )
