Cozy gothic horror stories, a nice change from more lurid examples of the genre

A hit/miss collection of stories. 3 good/OK stories, but the rest just wasn't my thing. Sometimes something just missed or it was just a bit messy (like with Hanging of the Greens which I am still confused about), something the MCs were just horrendous (Monster with an egotistical dude who just rapes his wife or Lily Wilt with both the ghost and the photographer being eh), sometimes it was just boring (I am sorry, I am just not THAT invested in chess).
