Book Reviews of New England Ghosts (American Ghosts Series)
Book Review: A very nice ghost-fiction anthology, although I agree...
Summary: 5 Stars
...that the book's appearance is misleading - it does look as though it's meant to contain true ghost stories. [Since I prefer good fiction to the usual so-so "true" accounts I was delighted with this book, but can see how some readers would be disappointed!]
The stories are all set in New England and include some great ones, from Benet's "The Devil and Daniel Webster" to Lovecraft's "Herbert West: Reanimator" (though that one technically isn't a ghost story at all!). Of the stories I hadn't read before, Bacon's "The Little Silver Heart" intrigued me - a mystery/ghost-story/nightmare. There's an offbeat Joyce Carol Oates story, and a charming old favorite by August Derleth ("The Dark Boy"), and more; a very nice anthology indeed.
