The Screaming Skull and Other Stories (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781470157135)

Although ghost stories only formed a small part of F. Marion Crawford's prolific output, they are the stories for which he is now best known. These four classic horror stories represent Crawford at his ghostly best. This collection includes his most renowned story 'The Upper Berth', a chilling tale about a haunted stateroom on a trans-Atlantic passenger ship which was praised by M.R. James as one of the best supernatural stories ever written. Also included are 'Man Overboard', another first-rate nautical ghost story, and 'The Screaming Skull', about a skull which once bore witness to a horrible atrocity (the tale is based on an actual legend). 1. The Screaming Skull 2. The Upper Berth 3. By the Waters of Paradise 4. Man Overboard
