The world is full of horrifying things that you can't see...This chilling collection of stories reaches out an icy hand to lead you into the disturbing world of the supernatural. Meet the boy who suddenly realizes that "he" is a ghost, and may stay one forever; two evil children who would love to get rid of their parents; the ghost of a Victorian child with disturbing powers; and many more. All of the stories here - whose distinguished authors include Ray Bradbury, Robert Westall, and Joan Aiken - make the unexplainable and unbelievable so real it will scare you to death!
