People having been telling ghost stories probably from the first cave men sitting around the campfire, and it has been a favored genre for writers. The stories in "The Best Ghost Stories Ever Told" feature some of the literary world's best known writers, such as Mark Twain, Charles Dickens, and Joseph Conrad, along with some lesser known authors. I have always found "The Monkey's Paw" a truly creepy and terrifying story, along with "The Black Cat" by Edgar Allan Poe. Most of the stories in this collection were ones I'd never come across, but I enjoyed them. Fans of vintage literature will enjoy this book as a prized addition to their collection.
