Tales from the Haunted Mansion series.
Illustrated by
Kelley Jones.
In this second series entry, mysterious librarian Amicus Arcane (The Fearsome Foursome) is back to share more paranormal tales. This time, a young man named William listens in return for a chance to see the medium, Madame Leota, who can help him speak to his deceased sister. The four loosely connected stories-within-the-story are ominous but not too scary, while eerie line drawings reinforce the pseudo-creepy vibe.
