"The Locked Room and Other Horror Stories" . M. R. James

      The seventh and last book this term I read was "The Locked Room and Other Horror Stories". All the stories in that book are written by M. R. James. The book's publisher is Addiosn Wesley Longman Limited & Penguin Books Ltd. The book's reading level is 4 (intermediate) and it has 1700 words.

      As the title of the book says, there are 9 horror stories in it. They have all been written by Montague Rhodes James. I liked all the nine stories although I'm not a fan of these kind of stories, but these ones were very interesting. My favourite story was the very first one in this book. The title of it is "The Ash-Tree". It talked about a man, who were killed probably because one witch was killed because of him. His bedroom was very close to the ash-tree and a few days after the hanging of that witch, he was found dead in his bed and he was all over black. The same happened to his grandson when he wanted to cut the tree down. Later, when that tree accidentally burned down, the creepy creatures came out of it (they looked liked very furry spiders)  and inside that tree were a bones of the witch...

      Even though this book was quite scary it was very interesting and excited to read. I'd definitely recommend this book to my classmates!
