I love the twist som of these stories have.
No satanic possession or like poldergeist, gore, just mysterious and scary.
The vollume was in the public domain, great performance by Allan Munro. Great value for the price and no scam like riped from librifox ore narated by a voice computer.
Great audio book.

Great ghost Stories

This was a fairly run of the mill narration of well known ghost stories. The stories are good but the narrator for me is dull.

Not bad for a dark cold night

Just before Christmas we had a power cut in our area. Sitting around the fire, with candles flickering, it seemed just the right atmosphere to listen to these ghost stories. We managed about 10 minutes, but found the narration impossible to listen to, because it sounds like a computer generated voice. Very disappointing.
