   Christmas is traditionally a time for ghost stories, and most of M. R. James's splendid contributions were meant as holiday entertainment for his students at Cambridge. You should read one for Christmas! They are all wonderful.

     @mcnees 😍 my favorite thing is Christmas ghost stories, and they’re hard to find! This is a Christmas present to us all, good sir.

     Thank you for this! While my entire family celebrates this holiday, I am drawn to horror movies. And now I have books!🤗

     Speaking of spooky Christmas stories, my fave panels from Mike Mignola’s “A Christmas Underground.” Great read for the night of the 24th.
