Short Stories at Project Gutenberg for October/Halloween

Project Gutenberg holds stories, anthologies and story collections that might be of interest to readers in spooky season. None of these titles are meant to point to similarly titled books, only short stories and novellas, offered here in no particular order. For a few of these, it takes a little searching, but all are appropriate to October and Halloween.
