Everyman's Pocket Classics: Ghost Stories

Last year I bought the Everyman's Pocket Classics Collection entitled Christmas Stories, and I was so pleased to have found a collection of short stories that evoked a sense of the holidays and the winter without being super-cheesy or commercial. The authors they selected are all heavy-hitters and the writing was a lot of fun to read. When I bought Ghost Stories, I think my expectation was too high, which is why I was a little disappointed. The stories are still great, but they aren't as dark or creepy as I had hoped for. From what I've read so far (about 1/3 through the book) the stories are simply stories that have ghosts in them (in some form or other). And I was surprised that they hadn't included any Edgar Allan Poe. In any case, I've still really enjoyed reading them, introducing myself to authors I've never read before and there is an element of spookiness that they do have. I'd definitely recommend this book, though it was slightly different than what I was expecting.
