  This is an audio collection of some of the best ghost stories ever written, which make perfect evening listening - for the brave...Here are apparitions, mysterious deaths and strange, inexplicable visions to chill the blood. The stories range from those by masters of the genre like Sheridan Le Fanu and Ambrose Bierce to classic writers such as Emile Zola and Rudyard Kipling. Some are frightening, some poignant, others leave a lingering taste of unease. Read by Nigel Davenport, Rula Lenska, Andrew Sachs and David Rintoul, the stories included are: Angeline, or the Haunted House by Emile Zola; The Moonlit Road by Ambrose Bierce; My Adventure in Norfolk by A. J. Alan; The Return of Imray by Rudyard Kipling; Mrs Lunt by Hugh Walpole; The Open Window by Saki, and An Account of Some Strange Disturbances in Aungier Street by Sheridan Le Fanu.
