These stories help in language learning because they are a form of immersive learning. Since they are written in the language you are learning, you get to experience the language as it is used in a narrative. This is different from just doing grammar drills. The scary nature of the stories also adds an extra layer of interest. For instance, if you're reading about a haunted house in the target language, you're more likely to remember the words related to the house, like 'door', 'window', 'attic' etc. as they are part of an exciting and somewhat scary story.
Well, one interesting thing is that they can improve your language skills in a spooky context. The stories often use vivid language which helps in vocabulary building.
