Description


Some boys and girls were at a party one night. There was a graveyard down the street, and they were talking about how frightening and eerie it was, daring one another to check it out. Welcome to the macabre world of Scary Stories, where folklorist Alvin Schwartz offers up the most alarming collection of horror, dark revenge, and supernatural events of all time. Here is a selection of extraordinarily chilling tales along with spine-tingling illustrations by renowned artist Brett Helquist.

«Los primeros colonos norteamericanos solían entretenerse contando historias de miedo. Se reunían al anochecer en alguna cabaña, o alrededor de un fuego, y competían para demostrar quién era capaz de asustar más. Algunas chicas y chicos hacen lo mismo hoy día. Se reúnen en la casa de alguien, apagan las luces, comen palomitas de maíz, y se pegan unos sustos de muerte. Contar historias de miedo es algo que la gente ha hecho durante miles de años, y a la mayoría de nosotros nos gusta que nos asusten de esa manera. Algunas de estas leyendas son muy antiguas, y se cuentan en diversas partes del mundo. Y la mayoría de ellas tienen el mismo origen. Se basan en hechos que las personas vieron o escucharon o experimentaron, o que al menos piensan que así fue.» Alvin Schwartz
