Cover: "As long as people have gathered together to tell late-night stories around the fire, or listened to the mysterious creaks of old houses in the dark hours, ghosts have dwelled in the human imagination. In this shivery collection, wraiths cry out to the living for vengeance, spirits are bound to the earth by the strength of their love, and powers are conjured up to claim final justice. All cast their spells on our minds, and no matter how frightened, we eagerly seek more tales about these phantom denizens of darkness. And now this wish has been granted in fourteen blood-chilling ghost stories by masters of the macabre, who give us a terrifying glimpse of what lies in store when the body is no more."Contents:
