there was light, was sound, was matter

Hi, I'm Silje. INFP, 9w1 Sx/Sp, Hufflepuff and ~cool like Snufkin's hat. But not really, because nothing is as cool as Snufkin's hat. I like stuff and things (who doesn't), and this Tumblr is where stuff and things go.

Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark collected by Alvin Schwartz  with art by Stephen Gammell.

Three volumes in all: released 1981, 1984, and 1991.  

And all who read these as a child should remember these horrifying drawings.  The one that bothered me the most: THE THING. Just look at that face and imagine that really staring at you. Not a pleasant thought even now. 

I have never read Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark, but I enjoy scary stories and these illustrations are so magnificently horrifying that this book needs to find its way into my possession.
