Ghost Anthology

This book contains 101 bite-sized horror stories that are intended to scare and unsettle you. These are real peoples' accounts of the creepy and the occult - of their near-misses with madmen and paranormal entities.

These stories have been collected with the knowledge that real life is scarier than fiction.
