I enjoyed the first story, "Holiday" and the last two as well, " Proud Lady in a Cage" and "The Horseshoe Inn". Everything else in between was a bit dull and even for a short story, didn't work or just didn't seem like a ghost story. "Beliah" was spooky enough but more along the vein of a demon possession than a ghost story.
