The Japanese original is actually a bit dull, but I am not familiar with the Ghost Stories books. Perhaps if you are a fan, the anime will be more interesting.
However, the English dub is superb. The dub is completely different from the original, and the show becomes a comedy rather than a thriller. The characters are played completely different, and the stories are more goofy. (Momoko as a born again Christian is hilarious!) Unfortunately, there are some cringy racist jokes, but they are few, and only appear in a few episodes. Other than that, the dub is really funny.
