A Bit Spooky and A Lot of Fun
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
The talent of some people never ceases to amaze me. It was such fun to read through all these short imaginative tales. I can hardly wait to take this book with me on my next long airplane trip so I can sit and read uninterrupted and let my mind wander into the world "beyond". I especially enjoyed the selection by Sandra Aikman entitled "Pia". Is it a true story? I got the feeling while I was reading Pia, that it was not a make-believe ghost story. Good writing and good reading.
Wonderful collection

The Best of Ghost Story Weekend is a wonderful collection of short stories. I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the writing from mostly novice authors. After I picked it up, I couldn't put it down. All of the stories were very imaginative and not so far "out there" that they weren't plausible. I got goose bumps more than once. It is a definate must-read for anyone who enjoys spooky stories and tales of the "other side." My favorite story is "Pia."

I found many of the stories had very new approaches to the traditional Ghost Story genre and were immensly gripping. I also loved the flavor of nature and the west in general that permiated each story. My favorite was Banjo Bandolas' "One Last Soul." I didn't want it to end. Please write a sequil Mr. Bandolas if you read this! I highly recommend this book!
An amazing collection of short stories!
