Ghost Story (1981)
By The Scribbler
Ghost Story (1981) by Peter Straub is, I believe, one of the best horror novels written during the twentieth century. I have a vague list of my top twentieth-century genre novels in the back of my mind; these include Robert Bloch, Psycho (1959), Ray Bradbury, Something Wicked This Way Comes (1962), Jack Finney, The Body Snatchers (1955), Thomas Harris, The Silence of the Lambs (1988), Robert Heinlein, The Puppet Masters (1951), Shirley Jackson, The Haunting of Hill House (1959), Stephen King, It (1986), John D MacDonald, The Executioners aka Cape Fear (1962), Richard Matheson, I Am Legend (1954) ... and of course, Ghost Story.The novel begins with two characters: Donald Wanderley and a teenage girl, who he may or may not have kidnapped. It then switches to the Chowder Society, and one year previous. Milburn, Upstate New York, winter: four elderly men meet up to tell ghost stories (they have been doing this for fifty years). There used to be five of them, but one passed away the year before with a look of horror on his face. The remaining four have since suffered nightmares relating to an inadvertent act carried out during their past. They now decide they can bury a dark past relating to their youth and possibly an act of murder.Stephen King said of Ghost Story that it is ''the best of the supernatural novels to be published in [...] the 1970s.'' This ode to Henry James's Turn of the Screw offers strong characters, a solid plot, plenty of twists and turns, and a chill around each turn of the page. It surely marks the watershed era of Straub, his other defining offerings being Julia (1975) and If You Could See Me Now (1977). This is a weighty novel in terms of word count; and yet, reading it does not seem a chore. Rather, the text is fluid and before you know it the last page is finished and you hunger for more. That, above all else, is the mark of a good writer.

Still Scary 40 Years Later
By Miss Chinaski
Read this classic horror when it first came out, like the ghosts (and the fabulous, demonic, femme fatale at the centre of the story) it haunted me for years. Have read other Straubs but this remains his best. Milburn reminds me of my upstate NY upbringing, bringing back many memories - to read this is both disquieting and a comfort. Just sad that both the film and the cover of this edition let down what I think is one of the top five ghost stories of the 20th century.

Worthy, but plodding
By crystal23tipps
I usually read at least one book a week, but it has taken over a month to read this. The story is okay, but I just couldn't engage with the characters or plot, and always found something else to do after reading only a couple of pages at a time. I picked this after enjoying Peter James's collaborations with Stephen King (both of which I enjoyed), but I won't be picking up any more of his solo writing - it's not for me.
