Twenty-Five Ghost Stories (eBook)

First published in 1904, ‘Twenty-Five Ghost Stories’ is a classic collection of scary short stories by W. Bob Holland. This volume contains the most famous of the weird stories of Edgar Allan Poe, the master of this form of literature. ‘The Black Cat’ contains all the needed elements of mystery and supernatural, and yet the feline acts in a natural manner all of the time, and the story is quite possibly true. It is only in the manner of its telling that the tale becomes one that fittingly finds its place in this collection. There has recently been a revival in interest in ghost stories. Many of the high-class magazines have within a few months printed stories with supernatural incidents, and writers whose names are known to all who read have turned their attention to this form of literature.
