I bought all mine as a set when my school had the Scholastic book fair come through. The same way I got my Narnia boxed set. And the Bunnicula books.

Oh, and Still More Tales for the Midnight Hour books.

Those would be *some* of the originals I lost, although I've rebought at least one of the Midnight Hour books and then maybe 15 years ago I bought a Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark compendium before the art change to replace the one I either lost (or possibly didn't own).

There are quite a few other children's horror anthology series I desperately want to track down, which I either glanced through at bookshops or borrowed from libraries over the years. My google abilities have failed to ID some of the names. Oh, plus some sci-fi horror athologies that I'm not sure were for adults or children (one of those should be easier to find, come to think of it -- one story involved a rehab program for speeders where inmates could speed as much as they like as part of government tests although the tests were dangerous and the fellow inmates tried to kill each other off; and another story involved some tv show that was broadcast and convinced people to hate a kid because he was like the show's character). In general, a great many youth and adult stories are virtually indistinguishable, excluding when they're written for very young children.

The other problem with anthologies is that it's hard to remember which story is in which anthology and many similar-themed stories blend together.
