The Shadows on the Wall: Three sisters mourn their brother and can’t explain what they see.
Luella Miller: The people who help a seemingly capable woman have a habit of wasting away.
The Southwest Room: Something in Great-Aunt Harriet’s old bedroom keeps scaring away renters.
The Vacant Lot: A family moves into an underpriced house only to discover the neighbors are terrifying.
The Lost Ghost: A woman tells her friend of the time she lived in a house haunted by a little girl.
