I recently read a collection of his ghost stories, and learned that it was traditional to tell ghost stories at Christmas.

I love ghost stories but prefer them at Halloween. I love the ghost of Lady Alice Rowhedge in Norah Lofts books. She rides a big black stallion along the Lower Road.
I don't know, but it explains the lyric in "The Most Wonderful Time of the Year" (Andy Williams Christmas song) : "There'll be scary ghost stories and tales of the glories of Christmases long long ago".
