Ghost Stories: 10 Bad and Dangerous Ghost Stories… von John Townsend

Cursed cars, weird objects that move, disappearing people - you name it, this book has all the old cliche ghost stories and more. Its not very hard to read (I took about 40 mins to finish it) and the page colours alternate to white text on black to add to the spooky atmosphere of the book. Short stories for Easy Readers without too much horror.
