The book was reviewed quite sometimes ago in the star's newspaper
the following is the review of the book

Review by MICHAEL CHEANG.
44 CEMETERY ROAD:
THE BEST OF TUNKU HALIM
By Tunku Halim
Distributor: MPH, 334 pages
(ISBN: 978-983-369-8271)

A frightening sense of dread came upon me as I held the book in myhands. Maybe it was the cover illustration of a tombstone. Maybe it wasthe innocuously foreboding title: 44 Cemetery Road: which reminded meof death at every syllable. Or maybe it was just my fear of cheesyMalaysian ghost stories acting up again

seram tau buku ni, nyesal aku gi angkat kat popular hari tu time tgh tunggu nak masuk cinema..
yelah, short stories pun tapi segala hantu-hantu dia hantu malaysia, cam langsuir, pontianak.. waa, seramnya seramnya

mujur tak beli jer, sebab baca kat situ

baca first story pasal pontianak je dah menggigil.. sampai tgh malam buta nak minum air kejutkan suami..

first story, pasal idris.. idris ni nak sangat keluar dating ngan zain, secretary GM. tapi idris ni office boy je.. berapa kali kena reject dgn zain. lepas tu kawan si idris, cindy kata, boleh aa jumpa bomoh ni.. nak kenenkan idris ngan zain. idris sanggup pergi. bomoh tu tunaikan permintaan idris.

cilmax: idris tengah duduk kat rumah, dpt call from cindy. sekali zain datang rumah. idris dah masyuk.. cindy tak sempat bagitahu zain dah meninggal dalam accident one week earlier.

all cindy heard on the phone was a bloody scream from idris. zain datang nak hisap darah idris (she turned to be a ponti...)

p/s: cerita english maybe rasa tak seram, sebab bukak setting malaysia kan... ni setting malaysia
