Dare you visit the vampire's tomb at midnight when the church bell tolls?

Or descend to the fiery pits of hell with a boy who has sold his soul to the devil?

If not, read no further. For these are strange and ghostly tales - gruesome, pitiful, spine-chilling . . .

But don't be surprised to find that supernatural events can also be wickedly funny - and even raise a ghost of a smile!
