This is a great collection! There are some big names and a lot of South American authors I have never heard of. The cover art rules. Some of the themes can get old if you read them all at once, so it is good to space things out. My favorite story was actually the first one, by Julio Cortazar, but th...

I MUST read ghost stories on Halloween but can only handle those that are basically one step up from Casper in terms of scares. Most of these were already in the other James book I read but there were a few new ones and a very creepy one involving hair.
