Er zaten een paar fijntjes tussen, maar er waren ook veel heel saaie bij. Het heeft me wel weer geholpen om makkelijker Victoriaans Engels te kunnen lezen, wat dan weer hielp om andere klassiekers nog beter te begrijpen.

There's nothing like a good ghost story, and these were nothing like a good ghost story. Not one scared me, not even all of them contained ghosts! There were some I did enjoy, and I particularly found the Oscar Wilde one hilarious. But all in all, this collection was far from a good read

I do like reading stories from it now and again but that's probably because they are not frightening or even close to eerie so I can sleep pretty good no matter how many of them I read.

A good collection of ghost tales, not that I'm a huge reader of spooky type stories. For me, the highlight was of course Oscar Wilde's, with the wonderful ghost who is trying - and failing - to scare off those loud and brash Americans.
