100 Ghastly Little Ghost Stories
Edited by Stefan Dziemianowicz, Robert Weinberg & Martin H. Greenberg
Be warned – not only good tidings, but sometimes fear comes in small
packages; or, in this case, short packages. Although much contemporary
fiction dealing with ghosts runs to novel length, the short ghost story
continues to entertain readers around the world. One of the attractions of
the short ghost story is that it uses a minimum of elements to captivate its
readers and evokes a powerful response before the tenuous air of suspense
has a chance to dissipate. This book brings together a century and a half of
ghost stories by masters of the genre, such as H.P. Lovecraft, Ambrose
Bierce, Steve Rasnic Tem, H.F. Arnold, H. Warner Munn, and Darrell
Schweitzer.
