5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Book, 12 Jan 2006
By A. Price (Glos) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Roald Dahl's Book of Ghost Stories (Perfect Paperback)
I read this when I was a teenager travelling through Africa. I had to cover the front image because alongside the stories it scared me to much. Yet these stories drew you in, scarier than any film I've seen yet far more intriging aswell. It's incomparible to any book I've read since. It's in a genre of it's own. Each is an individual master piece, they're beautiful, elequent and twist and turn in the most unexpected ways.

By Mom (Northern California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Roald Dahl's Book of Ghost Stories (Perfect Paperback)
reading some of these ghost stories. This is a wonderful wonderful collection of true ghost stories. Highly recommend it to everyone a bit older, say, 12 years and up!! Loved the one called Playmates. Cheers!

3.0 out of 5 stars Dissapointed, 7 Feb 2009
By G. Smith "GS" (Aberdeen, Scotland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Roald Dahl's Book of Ghost Stories (Perfect Paperback)
From the front cover its easy to belive that the contents of the book may contain ghost stories written by RD. Instead its gost stories selected by RD. They are good stories, but still feel that we have been duped.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not a spine chiller of a book, but...
worth a read if you, like me, are hooked on ghost stories. This is quite an eclectical collection of stories, all of them well written, but none of them are likely to spook you.

3.0 out of 5 stars A decent read
When i saw that Roald Dahl had chosen these stories i was expecting them to be terrifying, but to be honest they didn't really stir me at all (& i scare very easily). Read more
