Chances are you already know today's story author -- from a certain sinister tale involving a monkey's paw.

I would argue that W.W. Jacob's "The Toll House" is just as well-written and just as deserving of fame.

The premise is pretty modern and would honestly make a great limited series (so listen up, HBO Max!).

Jack Barnes doesn't believe in ghosts, haunts, or spirits of any kind. He shares this with his traveling buddies: Meagle, Lester, and White, who are all discussing ghosts and appear more inclined to believe. They discuss a certain haunted house, The Toll House, which is said to extract a heavy "toll" from anyone who enters it.

The four men decide to go stay in The Toll House. But will all four come back out?
