    Simple yet effective

    I remember Scary Stories from when I was a kid and just how much the simply written stories effected me. Along with the bizarre artwork of Stephen Gammell. I recently purchased some used copies from Ebay, and made sure it contained the original artwork not the new artwork you see in the new editions, and am happy to say the stories are still as compelling as they were when I was a kid. They are simple, yet strangely primal in how they tap into that ancient emotion of fear and dread we all hold inside. I got the books to read to my girlfriend's little boy who is now nine. At first he wasn't interested until I read him the first story, 'The Big Toe'. Now every night he wants me to sit in his room and read him a tale or two and spark his imagination like the stories did for me when I ...

    Awful

    It's a good thing my friend who loves things that are older and loves this book in particular, I would have sent it back because it's in terrible condition. The front page is torn, the spine is cracked and you can tell it's been used a lot. The only reason I'm keeping it is because I know my friend will appreciate the authentic look of it.

    Nostalgia at it's Best.

    You have to go with the Original Art with these books. I remember reading them back in the day when I was a kid and those creepy stories go best with the even creepier Artwork. The newer ones are a far cry from Gammell, like someone hired a grade schooler to draw it. Like the title says; Nostalgia at it's Best!

    Perfect Gift

    My sister had this set as a kid, but it was given away. The earlier editions have much better illustrations so I was looking for an earlier print. These books were in great condition-exactly as advertised, and arrived promptly. Thanks for making my sister’s Christmas!
