Have a haunted Halloween Guaranteed to chill and thrill, this spine-tingling collection of twenty-two spooky stories includes contributions from Franz Kafka, Charles Dickens, and Guy de Maupassant. This description may be from another edition of this product.
The stories in this collection tend not to be overly frightening, which makes them ideal for children but adults can find them equally enjoyable. There are stories by Dickens, Saki, Kafka, Maupassant and Ray Bradbury along with some by relatively unknown authors. The "Monkey's Paw" is collected along with an unfamiliar M. R. James "Lost Hearts." The stories range from the sad and poignant"The Little Yellow Dog" about the ghost of a dog to the spooky "A Legion Marching By" about a ghostly Roman legion in Britain. The illustrations add a lot to the presentation.
