Classic Ghost Tales is an altogether creepy anthology that unveils the world of the decaying undead often in midnight settings where imagination runs riot and terrible forces are unleashed.
Have you ever felt a strange presence around you, or heard a thump in the night, or gotten a chill for no reason at all?
Where lonely country houses, remote inns, ancient churches provide settings for unbearable menace from creatures seeking retribution and harm?
For this superbly disquieting collection, Philip Dossick has chosen twelve classic tales of the supernatural by such masters as Ambrose Bierce, Guy de Maupassant, Edgar Allan Poe and F. W. Harvey--stories that are downright chilling, scary and weird; stories guaranteed to stay with you through the darkest nights and coldest days.

He has written for television, including the outstanding drama, Transplant, produced by David Susskind for CBS.
