      This was one of my favorite book series as a kid, and I was pleasantly surprised to find that it was just as enjoyable to listen to as adult. The voice acting is perfect, the stories are still very creepy, and the end notes about the folklore behind the tales are fascinating and enlightening. An awesome read for spooky season!

      This is for little children and/or imbeciles. Maybe look elsewhere.
