Product Description

Over 130 pages of scary stories to get your blood a pumping - including: A Haunted Island; The Wood of the Dead; Skeleton Lake: An Episode in Camp; and several more bone-chilling stories! Certain Houses, like certain persons, manage somehow to proclaim at once their character for evil. In the case of the latter, no particular feature need betray them; they may boast open countenance and an ingenuous smile; and yet a little of their company leaves the unalterable conviction that there is something radically amiss with their being: that they are evil. Willy nilly, they seem to communicate an atmosphere of secret and wicked thoughts which makes those in their immediate neighborhood shrink from a thing diseased. And Perhaps, with houses, the principle is operative, and it is the aroma of evil deeds committed under a particular roof, long after the actual doers have passed away, that make sthe gooseflesh come and the hair rise. Someofthing of the original passion of the evil-doer, and of the horror felt by his victim, enters the heart of the innocent watcher, and he becomes suddenly conscious of tingling nerves, creeping skin, and a chilling of the blood. He is terror stricken without apparent cause.
