Tales of Terror from the Black Ship Audiobook (Unabridged)

" Rally enjoyed this spooky collection of scary tales - not to be read before bed unless you want a sleepless night! Hated the enormous spider most but then I am arachnaphobic. "

" I love these stories! Can't believe they were written for children as they would undoubtedly linger in any child's mind. Only 4 stars as they were stories about the sea (not really my cup of tea) - but looking forward to the next installment. Brill!!!! "

" Picking up this book from the shelves, I didn't think it would have been as eerie as it is. I underestimated the horror for it's enfantine cover illustration. The stories were a build up, each story getting creepier than the previous. I was initially drawn by the illustration but was even happier with the purchase since the story was very enjoyable. "

" If you like short stories then this is the book for you! They are very curious and weird stories but lovely to read. Some even gave me chills. The ending is a slight twist which I found quite creepy. HIGHLY ENJOYABLE BOOK :) "

" Quite creepy if predictable. I liked the first book and probably liked this one more. Some of the stories were quite eerie and clever and others I have heard before but the author puts a new spin in many of them with the seafaring theme. I particularly enjoyed the snail story! Not a challenging book but light, entertaining and a bit disturbing. "

" gothic, terrifying, creepy, fantastically written, engaging and i just could not put it down. i'll be reading everything of mr. priestley's fro this point on, you can believe that. "

" I was drawn to this book by the cover, and I was not disappointed, I loved everything about this book. "

" More old-fashioned ghostly stories in the same vein as Uncle Montague's Tales of Terror. I actually liked this one more than that one. Most of the stories here are Poe-esque tales of murder and madness, but there's also a Sargasso Sea story about killer snails! Yes! "

" While waiting for their father to come home, a brother and sister sit and listen to an old sea man as he tells them spooky tales of his travels. "

" Not as scary ar his first, "Uncle Montague's Tales of Terror", but equally mesmerising. I'm eagarly looking forward to his next book: "Tales of Terror from the Tunnel's Mouth". "

" A children's book, well teenagers book.. But a damn good read even for adults. The short stories have great twists in them, and the overarching story also twists at the very end! "

" It was wonderful, it was amazing and very sad. I loved it. Please read this little book. "

" Another excellent collection of stories by Chris Priestley, with illustrations by David Roberts. I really enjoyed 'Tales of Terror from the Black Ship', a wonderful collection of stories from the sea with a twist at the end. A joy to read. "

" A fun read. It was a ncie change of pace for me and the ending was amazing! "

" Good old-fashioned creep out tales that were seamlessly woven into the main story, which involved young siblings and a mysterious visitor. Age appropriate yet very appealing to any adult reader who's a fan of the macabre. Unexpected twist at the end. Highly recommended at four stars. "

" Okay, so the website for this book has a game where you fish for CORPSES if that tells you anything. "

" My rating: 4.5 of 5 "

" Not as good as the previous ones. "

" YAY!! Another one of these books!! I was so happy when I saw it in the library. "

" Excellent scary stories, very atmospheric and some are quite haunting. "

" I really enjoyed this book, though it didn't give me nightmares like the reviews said it would. "

" Very well done! Awesome to have new stories in the old sea story tradition. Kind of like a mariner's Twilight Zone for older kids. "

" This is a good tween book for those that like the dark side. The short stories are very strange and creepy, so kids will love them. "

" Priestley writes stories that I wish I had grown up reading. But then again, I was an extremely morbid child who has grown into an extremely morbid adult. I enjoyed this even more than Uncle Montagues's Tales of Terror, and look forward to reading more of his work. "

" quite good thought it was spooky "

" This was AMAZING. Seriously, from the delightfully chilling tales to the creeping side-story, I loved this book to the core. There was no part I didn't like... READ IT. YOU HAVE TO. Aw, and the ending was just... Perfect! Not all happy, but just perfect for the book. No doubt about it, 5 stars!!! "

" wonderfully scary and scarily wonderful <3more, please! "

" YAY!! Another one of these books!! I was so happy when I saw it in the library. "

" Another great book by Priestly! The stories were so creative and interesting. Even though the book isn't directed towards my age group I really enjoyed it. The book ended with an interesting little twist. I look forward to reading more "Tales of Terror." "

" While waiting for their father to come home, a brother and sister sit and listen to an old sea man as he tells them spooky tales of his travels. "

" I don't normally read "scary" books; however I thought this was a pirate book. It scared me so I eventually had to quit reading it. If you are into ghostly/scary stories on a dark night, this book is for you. BTW it is a juvenile book. "

" i LOVED this book! it had a totally shocking ending. it was really good! "
