I read a collection of ghost stories called "The Phantom Cyclist" a couple of nights ago when I didn't feel like sleeping.

Something I noticed was that none of them were scary. All the ghosts were benevolent or at least good-intending.

Maybe that's the difference between british and american ghosts.

In one story, about a brother and sister who sled to these mysterious kids' large mansion, I nearly got scared, but even the mysterious kids just wanted someone to play with.

Mysterious kids are inherently lonely. In fact, the more mysterious a kid is, the more lonely he is.

I once read an Oscar Wilde story called......jesus, I forgot, but anyway, the point is that said story was about a ghost, but it wasn't scary, cos nobody took him seriously, or payed any attention to him for that matter.
It was fun.
