If well written, ghost stories can be sublime and make you believe, even if just for a time! The creepy factor can stay with you. Movie adaptations can be harder to pull off, but "The House on Haunted Hill" (Vincent Price version) made a lasting impression on the younger me. "They're coming for me now...and then they'll be coming for YOU!"--Classic!
