Anyone familiar with this author knows that these books are great for piquing your interest and introducing you to certain topics.
This book is packed full of spooky stories, from true crime to myths and legends. Each chapter is short and to the point, giving you the information you need to cover the story, and allowing you to research further the ones that stick.
Real Horror Stories introduced me to some stories I had never heard before, but also covers some common ones that still give me the shivers (cue Annabelle).
I had fun reading this, it was a quick and easy read that just satisfied my morbid interest in all things spooky.
