    A truly captivating read! I was hooked from the start. The exploration of the uncanny is both chilling and enlightening.

    Found some of the academic writing a little too heavy. The narrative stories were great though. An interesting idea, just not perfectly executed.

  4. P V Narsimha Redy –

    Fantastic book! Perfect for a dark and stormy night. The stories are spooky and the essays thought-provoking. I will recommend it.

  5. Bhupesh –

    A mixed bag. Some essays were insightful, others felt a bit dry. The ghost stories were the highlight! Overall, an okay read.

    Enjoyable collection, but some stories didn’t quite land for me. Still worth reading for the insightful essays on cultural fascination.

    This book offers a fascinating look into the spectral realm. A bit dense at times, but ultimately rewarding. Wells’s contribution is notable.

    A bit hit or miss. Some parts were brilliant, others were just okay. I was hoping for more scares, to be honest.

  11. Parakh Agrawal –

    Intriguing concept, but the execution was uneven. I enjoyed the exploration of shadows but wanted more consistent quality.

    A solid collection of essays and stories. Definitely worth checking out if you’re into the supernatural and its cultural impact.

  13. Amrita Reji –

    Interesting concept, I wanted more original ghost stories than essays, but the essays did provide context on the ghostly realm

  14. Ayan Kumar Garg –

    Not bad, but I was expecting something scarier based on the title. It was more academic than I anticipated. Still fairly interesting.

  15. Akshat Jain –

    Loved the variety! From classic tales to critical analysis, this book had something for everyone interested in the supernatural.
