While I found the stories in this book to be well written, I did not find it to be "true" ghosts stories, I was disappointed. After I read a couple from the front of the book, I browsed through the rest and it was "OK" not a normal "things that go bump in the night kind of book. I expected haunted houses and "real" literary ghosts, Maybe my interpretation of the book is off.

Another great collection of short stories, this time based on the idea of spirits. Good read.
