From then on, Dorian becomes as ugly on the inside as he is beautiful on the outside. He lives his life never feeling bad about anything. Until one day his wrongdoings catch up with him.  About the Creepy Classics Children's Collection: An opera house haunted by a musical spirit and a castle whose owner sleeps in a coffin are just two of the places these ten spooky stories transport readers to.
