Movie Rating Watch
Ghost Stories is one of the spookiest movies I've watched in quite some time. Sometimes the scariest thing one can see in the mirror is their own reflection. Our brains see what they want to see, and Ghost Stories is a movie you want to see.

Feelgood Ghost Story
Dickens is often credited with creating what we now call ghost stories. While he wasn't the only one talking of ghosts and monsters he certainly perfected the way ghosts are used as a way of viewing ourselves from the outside.

A mixed bag
A real mixed bag of Christmas ghost stories. Some are absolutely brilliant and some are an utter bore. A worthy collection non the less.

Em and Christine are maybe my favorite podcasters ever. They have a great rapport together and I love the combo of ghost stories and true crime! (0 more)
Spooky fun!
I love both Em and Christine’s story telling! I like that I hear old favorite stories from a new perspective as well as stories I’ve never heard before! I always want a glass of wine or milkshake after listening!

This little book had 3 stories: The Yellow Wall-Paper, The Rocking Chair, Old Water. They are all very different, but scary nevertheless. I didn’t get time to get used to the characters, because the stories are very short, but I did like their personas. The first two stories had a very strong ghost element to it, the third one had a very strong punch at the end.
