About Scary Stories for Teenagers: Classic stories that are the original form of horror movies

In that extraordinary time between childhood and adulthood are those years that most parents dread; The Teenage Years. Hormones rage, personalities can become belligerent, lives are lived in partial secrecy as their brains undergo re-wiring and their bodies shoot out in all sorts of places. How then to find stories they can engage with? There’s an easy answer. The same way we as adults engage. Great stories told by great authors. In this volume we can tick both boxes with the bonus that the stories are actually about them. Our classic authors including Marjorie Bowen, Gustav Meyrink, Kenneth Grahame, Thomas Hardy and many others bring all facets of this genre into needle-sharp focus. 01 - Scary Stories for Teenagers - An Introduction 02 - The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde - Part 1 by Robert Louis Stevenson 03 - The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde - Part 2 by Robert Louis Stevenson 04 - The Legend of Sleepy Hollow by Washington Irving 05 - The Signalman by Charles Dickens 06 - The Fall of the House of Usher - Part 1 by Edgar Allan Poe 07 - The Fall of the House of Usher - Part 2 by Edgar Allan Poe 08 - The Empty House by Algernon Blackwood 09 - The Cats of Ulthar by H P Lovecraft 10 - The Monkey's Paw by W W Jacobs 11 - Gabriel-Ernest by Saki 12 - The Boarded Window by Ambrose Bierce 13 - The Room in the Tower by E F Benson 14 - The Ash Tree by M R James.wav 15 - August Heat by W F Harvey 16 - The Vampyre.
