About This Book

**A collection of ghost stories by American and English authors.** These spectral stories span more than a hundred years, from modern-day creations by Joyce Carol Oates and Chet Williamson, to pulp yarns from August Derleth and M.L. Humphreys, to the atmospheric Victorian tales of Kipling and Lovecraft, not to mention modern works by Donald E. Westlake and Isaac Asimov. Whether you prefer possessive poltergeists, awful apparitions, or friendly phantoms, these stories are guaranteed to thrill you, tingle the spine, or tickle the funny bone, and keep you turning the pages with fearful delight.
