He rang the bell, and, sending for the landlord, appealed to him in the name of our common humanity not to let them waste a night watching in a house in which spectres and hobgoblins had no part. The reply was more than reassuring, and the landlord, after describing with considerable art the exact appearance of a head which had been seen hanging out of a window in the moonlight, wound up with a polite but urgent request that they would settle his bill before they went.
"It's all very well for you young gentlemen to have your fun," he said indulgently; "but supposing as how you are all found dead in the morning, what about me? It ain't called the Toll-House for nothing, you know."
"Who died there last?" inquired Barnes. . . Read More

British author W. W. Jacobs' (1863 - 1943) best known horror story is a classic first published in 1902. It is just one of the great stories in THE MONKEY'S PAW AND OTHER TALES OF MYSTERY AND MACABRE.

Sobran presentaciones. Todo el mundo ha visto el capitulo de los Simpsons, o ha leído un creepy-pasta cutre que plagiaba descaradamente la historia, o directamente ha leído la historia original. Poco mas se puede decir que no se hayan dicho ya mil veces estudiosos y prologuistas mas inteligentes y c
Excepcional autor, siendo imprescindible este compendio de relatos cortos de terror.
Un terror real. Muy parecido al que hace Stephen King en la actualidad en sus relatos más actuales. El engaño, venganza, mala cabeza… es lo que más predomina en ellos. Algún que otro fantástico como el famoso “La pata de mono” que no puedo decir ya más de todo lo bueno por otros.
