Great Ghost Stories Are Not So Great...

I just read a few pages from a short story called "The Phantom Coach" in a book called "Great Ghost Stories". Although I found this story very detailed and easy to visualize, it is very slow and not to the point; therefore, I am not a big fan of this story. I prefer a book that is more direct and gets the point across much faster.

  1. I think you won the prize for first to post, but you are going to have to give me more than 3 sentences. And aren't ghost stories all about the tension and suspense? Is it slow because of that, or is it slow because there is NO tension??

    1. I would have to say it was slow because there was not enough suspense. I'll work on adding more sentences in my next post!
