Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark: The Complete Collection New

Look out for ghosts – and for the film! A must for Halloween: walking corpses, dancing bones and spine-tingling artwork. Where should you go to find the scariest stories ever told? Look no further than this collection of darkly haunting legends. Witches, devils, bogeymen, monsters, zombies and vampires – they’re all here. Make sure you read this book with the lights on! Or, better still: invite some friends over, pull the curtains, turn down the lamps and tell the stories in the dark. Or around a campfire. Or in a haunted house. Or (if you dare) in a graveyard…
