About this ebook
I saw something— something horrible— a boy weeping in the forest— and he had no face!' ' No face, Sir?' ' No eyes, nose, mouth— nothing.' ' Do you mean it was like this, Sir?' asked the watchman and raised the lamp to his own face. The watchman had no eyes, no ears, no features at all— not even an eyebrow!True horror surfaces from darkness only when the night falls! This goose-bumpy collection introduces you to some of the most terrifying ghost stories ever told— old manor house hauntings; a couple on a remote island, condemned to a doom of unimaginable horror; a dying woman' s promise that she will be back to take her sisters when their time is up; a solitary walk through the woods in the evening and the terror it unfolds... Each story is sure to send a chill down your spine. So, dive under the covers and get ready to be spooked by the wild elements of the night!
