"Ghost stories told by a kindly narrator with a dark sense of humour. Very enjoyable, although the footnotes got a little tiresome. Sometimes they had important information, even revealing the 'punchline' of the story through translations of Latin phrases, and sometimes they were obvious."

    " I loved this book. I think that it is hard to find really good ghost stories. These are great! If you like Victorian fiction, you should love these. "

    " I just reread many of these stories as hurricane Sandy blistered past my windows. Good storm reading. Good reading any time, really. A giant among giants in the development of the ghost story. "

    " I do not own this book, but I love M. R. James and I really love the artwork on the front cover. If you rub your eyes in the dark you get to see this mysterious black and yellow eye at the corner of your (closed) eye... very atmospheric.... "
