Books of Wonder series.
This handsome volume encompasses a wide range of spooky stories, including a folktale adaptation by James Haskins, a Southern gothic narrative by Madeleine L'Engle, and tales by masters of the genre H. P. Lovecraft, Bram Stoker, and--represented by a chilling vignette--Arthur Conan Doyle. Each story is accompanied by a suitably atmospheric illustration by Moser.
