About the book
These seventeen stories are guaranteed to keep you awake and shivering with fear. We dare you to read them alone, late at night. The moon is full. The clock strikes twelve. Don't be afraid. But what's that sound? Footsteps in the hall? It's just the dog. The creaking door? Merely the wind blowing. And is that a face at the window? Or is it just your imagination. Read these stories at your own risk. But be prepared to be scared out of your wits.
