Description:
Things that go bump in the night. Ethereal remnants that skulk through the dark. These cleverly written ghost stories range from hilarious to soulful to downright terrifying, and they don't disappoint.

Qvamp says:

An early collection of 'spooky gay tales. Overall the book was fine, though a little too 'cute' for me. There was only one story that could remotely be considered horror, the rest were either supernatural 'romance' or just plain odd.

This collection is not really recommended. 'The Thing at The Foot of the Bed' does deal with repressed memories and childhood abuse well, and a couple of the other stories are intriguing enough to entertain, but the collection just didn't provide enough horrific oomph.
