These three stories all feel long. Really long. They take forever to build up to their point and when you get there, they just aren't that scary. Although the details varied, there was a dreary "They were dead all along!" sameness to them (not as if that is the literal end to each story, but really -- close enough). There is a lack of fresh thinking or detail and a willingness to settle for the cliche (teenager who kills his family loves Jim Morrison - yawn).Three tales of ghostly tedium.
