Summary: A terrific collection of ghost stories
Review: Dead On Demand: The Best Of Ghost Story Weekend is a terrific collection of ghost stories written by the participants in the weekend workshop and seminar on the Oregon coast who gather together to hone the fine art of the horror story. This anthology showcases twenty stories and cover a variety of subjects from retooled urban legends to haunted castles, mirrors, boathouses, train tracks, woods, graveyards, and more! Dead On Demand is a very highly recommended for those that like to experience original and innovative, hair-raising, pulse-pounding, goose-fleshing, heart-fluttering horror fantasy.

Summary: Dead on Demand
Review: I found many of the stories had very new approaches to the traditional Ghost Story genre and were immensly gripping. I also loved the flavor of nature and the west in general that permiated each story. My favorite was Banjo Bandolas' "One Last Soul." I didn't want it to end. Please write a sequil Mr. Bandolas if you read this! I highly recommend this book!

Summary: Wonderful collection
Review: The Best of Ghost Story Weekend is a wonderful collection of short stories. I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the writing from mostly novice authors. After I picked it up, I couldn't put it down. All of the stories were very imaginative and not so far "out there" that they weren't plausible. I got goose bumps more than once. It is a definate must-read for anyone who enjoys spooky stories and tales of the "other side." My favorite story is "Pia."

Summary: A Bit Spooky and A Lot of Fun
Review: The talent of some people never ceases to amaze me. It was such fun to read through all these short imaginative tales. I can hardly wait to take this book with me on my next long airplane trip so I can sit and read uninterrupted and let my mind wander into the world "beyond". I especially enjoyed the selection by Sandra Aikman entitled "Pia". Is it a true story? I got the feeling while I was reading Pia, that it was not a make-believe ghost story. Good writing and good reading.
