One stormy night, in their family's otherwise deserted Cornwall inn, twelve-year-old Ethan and his sister Cathy shelter a mysterious guest who indulges their love of the macabre by telling horror stories of the sea.

Tales of Terror from the Black Ship

While on a spooky seafaring adventure, fierce storms shake the sails, evil pirates pace on deck, and devilish ghosts haunt the depths of the ship in the exciting follow up to Uncle Montague's Tales of Terror.

I purchased this book during the Halloween specials last year. I kinda liked the look of the book and the spooky tales but after a while it kinda got a bit boring to read about all the pointless haunting tales. Past page 128, I skipped a few pages... well half the book really and went straight to the end. Reading the book I felt like I was reading a mix of Twilight Zone (the horror version) and The Others.

At the Old Inn, which clings precariously to a cliff top above a storm-lashed ocean, two sick children are left alone while their father fetches the doctor. Then a visitor comes begging for shelter, and so begins a long night of storytelling, in which young Ethan and Cathy, who have an unnatural appetite for stories of a macabre persuasion, sit out the last throes of the storm in the company of a sailor with more than enough grisly tales to satisfy them. But something about this sailor puts Ethan on edge, and he becomes increasingly agitated for his father's return. Only when the storm blows itself out can Ethan relax - but not for long, for the new dawn opens the children's eyes to a truth more shocking, more distressing than anything they heard the night before.
