Product Description
Product Description
Delve into some of the scariest and mysterious ghostly legends of our time with this collection of ghost stories. Each of the three books in the set contains around 15 of the very best ghost stories ever told, from the most haunted house in England at Borley Rectory, to the ghosts that roam the Tower of London, and the creepy goings-on aboard the Mary Celeste.
Enter the eerie world of the ghosts who roam our railway stations, or learn where to encounter the headless horse, or the ghost of London's theatreland.
Packed with classic tales from yesteryear and more recent ghostly happenings from across the world, "Ghost Chronicles" is the ultimate accessory for any Halloween party or paranormal enthusiast.
Tales Of the Supernatural
A collection of supernatural stories about dreams, premonitions and possessions. Here you ll find strange beasts, headless ghosts, and phantom faces that appear to the unsuspecting, striking fear into their very hearts.
Stories in this collection include the Screaming Skull, the owner of which met an untimely death and now terrifies visitors to a mansion house. And then the Carters and the Poltergeist, a spine-tingling tale of the havoc that can be wreaked when a poltergeist takes over a family home.
Ghostly Tales on land and Sea
Pirates, smugglers and highwaymen are among the contemptible characters that return from beyond the grave in this collection of chilling tales drawn from both the land and sea.
Stories include the Headless Mate, a terrifying tale of murder and revenge on the high seas. Others include The Grey train, an intriguing story of a phantom train that travels along a lonely stretch of track in the Scottish Highlands
Tales of Haunted Places
The ultimate haunted house collection of ghost stories. This book is full of terrifying tales of ghostly happenings in various castles, cemeteries and battlefields.
Spine-tingling tales including the Strange Visitor of Covent Garden and Phantoms of the Battlefield are brought together in this fascinating collection of ghoulish happenings that will strike fear into even the boldest readers.

Format:Hardcover
Now this is one of my favourite titles of this year as it is not only beautifully presented (three hardbacks in a slipcase) but also split into easy to find area's within the titles. In this case: Ghostly Tales on land and Sea. Tales of Haunted places and Tales of the Supernatural which allows the reader to find what they want quite easily.
Whilst some of the stories are quite short, it's a great way to get the basics of some folklore so that if you want to research it you can. Especially when you add some virtually unheard of tales alongside some of the more well known.
One thing that I would suggest for future editions would be to perhaps sort the tales out by area so that you can find the local supernatural stories and go to visit the locations to which they're based. All in, it's a great offering for someone who loves these types of books and a great gift for any time of year (especially when that time of year involves snuggling up in a duvet when its pitch black outside.) Lots of fun, a great selection of tales and above all else something that you'd think would cost a lot more.
