Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the most chilling books I've ever read.
Review: I was only 5 or 6 when I first got this book (now I'm 18), but a few of the stories in this collection by C.B. Colby still send a shiver down my spine. The one I found most effective was the next-to-last one, "The Whistle." Not only did it take place in my state of South Carolina, but the source of the title sound was never identified or revealed. In short, it could have been ANYTHING, and to a young reader (such as myself when I first read it), that's the worst kind of fear there is. This is a good book to read to "young-un's" on Halloween, or anytime of the year you want to give them a good scare. I also recommend it for adults.

Summary: A good book
Review: This book I'm writing a review for is Pretty good. It told some great ghost stories. First of all it was very orginized,for example it had chapter introductions. Also this book has a lot of great tales. Some of them might even take place in your state. In this book thier are 48 tales that incude The ghost with flaming fingers,Ghost on the beach and The white pidgeon.But befor you go and buy this book I would like to say that I would'nt recomend this book for young chilodren. For some of the story's are very disturbing and others were very gory,some even made my stomach turn. I mean I was ten when I read this book and it gave me nightmare's. I would without a doubt recomend this book for age's 11 and up. But all around that the book was fine. Sadly I took two stars off for that gory and down right sick contents that lie in those pages. I hope this review was helpful,Thankyou.
