For those who, like me, occasionally have trouble with the "Look Inside!" function, here are the stories listed in this volume:
An Account of Some Strange Disturbances in Aungier Street - J.S. Le Fanu
No. 1 Branch Line: The Signalman - Charles Dickens
Mrs. Zant and the Ghost - Wilkie Collins
Reality or Delusion? - Mrs. Henry Wood
The New Pass - Amelia B. Edwards
The Body-Snatcher - Robert Lewis Stevenson
What Was It? Fitz-James O'Brien
The Real Right Thing - Henry James
"Oh, Whistle, and I'll Come to You, My Lad" - M.R. James
In Kropfsberg Keep - Ralph A. Cram
The Lost Ghost - Mary E. Wilkins
I'm glad I added this to my collection, as it has a few stories I've never even heard of by familiar writers. I've been a fan of Wilkie Collins since I stumbled upon "The Woman in White" and I still remain a fan. One thing that goes through my mind when reading these short story collections is, "Man, they really don't write like this anymore."
On the binding/print: The font was good, and the spacing of the margins was good - sometimes with these volumes the print goes all the way to the binding, making it a little difficult to read without almost destroying the book. I didn't have that problem here.

A Good Collection of Ghost Stories by Great Authors
Dover's collections of ghost, horror, and mystery stories are among the best deals in the paperback book world. I read this volume around Halloween, and it made what little hair I have left curl and vanish. The quality of the individual stories varies greatly, with the best being "Wandering Willie's Tale" by Sir Walter Scott, "Doctor Heidegger's Experiment" by Nathaniel Hawthorne, and the much-anthologized "The Horla" by Guy de Maupassant. Also included is the classic "The Monkey's Paw" by W. W. Jacobs and "Dracula's Guest" by Bram Stoker. In all, there are eighteen different stories by sixteen authors.
My copy of the book was purchased some many years ago and still looks great for a paperback, so you don't have to feel any compunctions buying a used copy in good condition.
This book will give you many hours of scary enjoyment. What more can I say?

Good for reading, not for camp fires.
I purchased this book to be part of my 'campfire story collection' when on Boy Scout campouts. I was looking for something that was 'scary, but not too scary', with longer and more compelling stories than many of the 100-words or less entrants that seem to fill some books (I mean, give us a little bit of a story...)
In any case, while some of them can be interesting to read on their own and for insight into what people thought was scary 100+ years ago (hint, almost nothing of it is currently scary to your average 12-13 year-old, and mostly they're just confused because of the vintage vocabulary), it's probably not the book I would reach for to take on the next campout.
