I believe that one was from the kids book â€œTales for the Midnight Hour" which is also great.
Furry collar: Good story too lots of build up and imagery scared the hell out of me when I was a kid. Not enough headless walking corpses in kidâ€™s stories today.

you are soooo right !!

Does anyone else remember the childrenâ€™s book series "Scary Stories to Tell in The Dark" by Alvin Schwartz and illustrated by Stephen Gammell?

There must be a fan base because they keep reprinting them in special sets. If youâ€™re not familiar do yourself a favor if you have kids or not and pick them up. They are collection of great campfire tales, some of which like one about a scarecrow that comes to life is truly scary. And the artwork is fantastic, worthy of a coffee table book all its own.
