Super fun and spooky

I loved this collection of ghost stories. The narrator did a great job at playing the characters and conveying horror. The stories where interesting and well written. The only thing I'd warn to someone wanting to listen to this book is that there are often long peices of dialogue regarding things of little to no importance (ex. a man talks at length about his wife's dish collection). I personally thought this aided the stories and made them more realistic, but this could be annoying to other listeners.

I highly recommend, especially for the month of October.
