The author was raised on Hawthorne, Poe, La Fanu, Shirley Jackson, Anne Rice, Elvira, Alfred Hitchcock Presents, The Twilight Zone and Tales From the Crypt. Ghost Lite offers fifteen old-style creepy ghost stories, macabre but not grisly and sometimes humorous bordering on campy. No zombies, psycho axe-murderers, or torture chambers here. "An Old House..." is simultaneously funny and macabre. "Find A Relic..." set in 1905 in New York City is a novella written in the epistolary style of a gothic novel. "Ghost Light" recounts the life of a 450-year old lantern with supernatural powers. "Benevolent Guides" and "A Roxanne Sighting" are about guardian spirits. "Poultrygeist" and "An Old House Just Has So Much Character" concern moving into an old house still holding the energies of previous occupants. An entertaining, illustrated quick-read for folks who want a chill but still want to sleep at night.
