There is a story here for everyone -- skeletons with torn and tangled flesh who roam the earth; a ghost who takes revenge on her murderer; and a haunted house where every night a bloody head falls down the chimney. Stephen Gammell's splendidly creepy drawings perfectly capture the mood of more than two dozen scary stories -- and even scary songs -- all just right for reading alone or for telling aloud in the dark. <b>If You Dare!</b> 145600 book 1986 Scary Stories to Tell In the Dark total:2325|5:822|4:711|3:561|2:176|1:55| 2325 9044 2669 259 4 2 false false Fri Mar 20 22:33:17 -0700 2009 Sat Mar 21 01:03:44 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 5 false false Tue May 29 13:39:40 -0700 2007 Tue May 29 13:40:30 -0700 2007 more...]]> 5 2 false false Tue Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 1991 Fri Sep 21 04:42:17 -0700 2007 Tue Aug 26 21:23:02 -0700 2008
