Title: Scary Stories 3 More Tales To Chill Your Bones

I read this very scarcely when I was a kid. I kept seeing the books around, but I never actually picked them up until I went to target the other day. I bought 1 and 3 (no more #2). I read both of them in less than an hour. These are definitely great stories to tell around a cool campfire. Some may be a bit strong for smaller children. The great thing that adds that horror factor is the black and white illustrations. These books are definitely a treasure that must be kept forever. I’ll list some of my favorites below:
The Bus Stop

Just Delicious

Bess

Harold

The Dead Hand

Such Things Happen

The Wolf Girl

Maybe You Will Remember

The Red Spot

I forgot to say also that I really appreciate the bibliography and the added notes and sources about these myths and folklores at the end of the books. The stories were even better in this addition. Would it be much to ask for a part 4?
I don’t think I have read this one. The front cover doesn’t look as creepy as they rest of the series. I will have to look into this. Thank you!
