The third spine-chilling title in the brilliantly received series of ghost stories by Chris Priestley A boy is put on a train by his stepmother to make his first journey on his own. But soon that journey turns out to be more of a challenge than anyone could have imagined as the train stalls at the mouth of a tunnel and a mysterious woman in white helps the boy while away the hours by telling him stories – stories with a difference.

3.5 stars - some good creepy tales, and Priestley is very good at ending a story before it wears out its welcome. However, I found [b:Uncle Montague's Tales of Terror 1900124 Uncle Montague's Tales of Terror (Tales of Terror, #1) Chris Priestley https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1429587759l/1900124.SY75.jpg 2047392] and [b:Tales of Terror from the Black Ship 2934112 Tales of Terror from the Black Ship (Tales of Terror, #2) Chris Priestley https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1433281794l/2934112.SY75.jpg 2961560] to have better stories and more effective frame tales. They really got under my skin, while this was more a pleasant diversion. I did really enjoy the bonus story and the shout outs to Uncle Montague!
