Review Detail

This is an excellent collection of famous ghost stories, complete with a story-like narrative to introduce the reader to the spine-tingling creepiness of that particular haunting and a well-researched discussion of the origins of that story and any major sightings throughout history. I found the entire book fascinating and extremely accessible to both young and old readers. The illustrations are dark and lovely and add a nice atmospheric touch to the book. I recommend this for any reader who enjoys fairy tales, ghosts, history, or a little touch of magic in their everyday life.
