Titles for All Hallows' Eve
Jackson the Cat with some pumpkins grown by my uncle and aunt All Hallows' Eve approaches...the perfect season for ghostly reading to stimulate the moral imagination...and to scare yourself. Here are some literary recommendations: 1. The Legend of Sleepy Hollow by Washington Irving The atmosphere of this tale is perfect. I've read it many times, and no longer feel very sorry for the vain Ichabod Crane. 2. The ghostly tales of Russell Kirk These are my favorite ghostly tales. After reading them, you will never look at life, or death, or the afterlife, in quite the same way again. Audio links here and here . 3. The ghostly tales of M.R. James The greatest English writer of ghostly tales. You will be scared out of your wits. Happy Hallowe'en!
