Here are 18 short tales of a married couple who seek out ghosts, haunts, and the supernatural. Some of their encounters are mild brushes with otherworldly elements, but some are terrifying, even life-threatening.
It’s unclear to what extent these stories are fact-based, and it would be a nice touch if the author clarified this for us. Are Steve and Steph real people? Are these authentic accounts? A blend of fact and fiction? Or are they purely invented entertainment? Some of the details have the ring of truth to them, such as the dog’s reaction to the taint of malign spirits, or the description of having a revenant passing through one’s own body.
One of the best features of this collection is the artwork. A combination of ink-pen illustrations and photographs set the ambiance for many of the stories. I didn’t see any mention of the artist, but I liked the workmanship.
This would make a good Halloween gift, or an anytime gift for the serious ghosthunter in your life. ~~ Chris Paige
