I've been working to complete my collection of "The Enchanted World Series" throughout this year and this has to be one of my favorite volumes yet. The volume titled Ghosts is packed full of ghost stories dating from the 1800's up to the 1980's. Some are hauntings and exorcisms, while others cover haunted places. Some of the stories include banshees, nightwalkers, ravens, poltergeists, ghost children, and the Ankou (skeletal monsters). A few of my favorites in this volume are "Glam's Tale" and "Song of the Sorrowing Harp", but my absolute favorite is a story about a woman and her detaching head from the English county of Lancashire titled "A Meeting on the Road Home", which is creepy and comical. These books contain stunning works of art and they always steal the show. You can locate the artists in the back of the book and learn about where all these tales originated in the bibliography. I like the way this volume was put together as it contains multiple stories from around the world. The artwork in this volume isn't as explicit as the others, and the tales are interesting, but I probably wouldn't recommend this one to young children as some of the stories are very eerie and involve killings. 4.5 **** These type books are undoubtedly interesting, but I have always found the format used a bit distracting the way the boxed excerpts interfere with the chapter being read. One must finish reading the chapter before going back to read what is in the boxes, or read through those sections first & then go back to the beginning to read the chapter in full. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
