I did not like this book very much at all. Some of the stories were scary, some were not even possible, and about two were actually fun stories. I didn't like all the dreariness and misfortune in it, especially the stories that were impossible. Also the title, "NASTY Book," makes you wonder, but it really is that bad. I didn't like it. Plus, Barry Yourgrau is really creepy. Don't waste your time on this dumb book.
