The first story, The Doll House, was nicely atmospheric. An expedition to the South Pole, family left behind in England, the titular doll house ... and a bit of magic that can only be found during the Witching Hour. ;)

I liked it quite a bit though I don't quite understand how the doll house could have re-written things so entirely at the end. Hm.

The 3rd story, Bridge Street, is interesting because it was inspired by the author's grandmother - the title refers to a location in Cowpe (Lancashire).

It's a ghost story, again, but this time with children! *cue ominous music* I swear, horror sories and movies aren't half as creepy when there aren't any kids. ;P Anyway, I liked how this one wasn't just about the creep factor but also about loss and grief.

The Second Witness was a ghost story set in 1870 completed with a haunted country house and a psychic investigator. It also had an element reminiscent of Edgar Allan Poe: a mysterious knocking sound where there could / should be none. *cackles*
