Three short stories about haunted houses, of a sort. Full of melancholie and a bit eerie. I liked the middle story, The Ancestors, best with it's creepy night toys. But my favorite quote came from the third story, Florrie:
"Frank was overwhelmed by an unwelcome notion of age, its indignities, its steady erasure of who you had once been and the recycling of your tiny former position in the world."

All three short stories were pretty well-written, with “The Ancestors“ being my favorite. The author does a good job creating eerie atmospheres.
