Summary "An eight-year-old boy's strange behavior may have something to do with the ghost of his older brother, whose death was written off as a tragic accident--but was it? A man is lured into the clutches of a centuries-old woman who plans to use him for a terrible purpose. An academic is haunted by the mad theories of a dead colleague. An old woman's conviction that her fur coat is actually a dead dancing bear may be more than just senile delusions. These thirteen stories are about hauntings both literal and figurative: not only ghosts of the deceased, but also of the past, of lost loves and dead relationships, and explore the ways the uncanny can creep into our everyday lives."--Amazon website.
