A ghost story for Christmas Eve?

My mum told of this book. As a child it had frightened her half to death. This is a lovely little spooky tale, short but sweet

Automatonophobia

excellent narration of an incredibly creepy, old fashioned tale about stone statues reanimating!
although some of the language and is dated, it still remains chilling.
