I remember as a kid getting ahold of some HH book at my aunt's or somewhere and trying to scare myself and younger cousins with it, but now this paranormal series just seems blah and dated and inconclusive.

Easy to read, entertaining and realistic as could be. I found the stories believable and interesting.

Really intriguing, spooky book! This is an intense, captivating set of stories telling about people who have been haunted and harassed by ghosts or entities of the spirit world. Very interesting book. I recommend it if you are intrigued by the paranormal and the afterlife.

I found myself disappointed with this one. Thought is would be more than it was. Not scary enough for me. Kind of boring.
