The Unquiet Grave Short Stories

M.R.James (1862-1936) was born in Kent, and became the provost of King´s College, Cambridge and later of Eton School. He is famous for his ghost stories, which have been popular since the day they were first written. "The Unquiet Grave" is one of his books, the one you are going to read this New year.

"Do I believe in ghosts? I am prepared to consider evidence and accept it if it satisfies me."This is what the author wrote in the introduction to one of his books?.

And what about you? Do you believe in ghosts?

If so, If you find a locked room in a lonely inn, don´t try to open it, even on a bright sunny day. If you find a strange whistle hidden among the stones of an old church, don´t blow it. If a mysterious man gives you a piece of paper with strange writing on it, give it back to him at once. And if you call a dead man from his grave, don´t expect to sleep peacefully ever again.

Read these five ghost stories by daylight, and make sure your door is locked.

Now, how about listening to a song . Does it have anything to do with the book? Listen to it and decide!
