Ghost Hunters
(eBook)
Description
You've probably seen Ghost Busters movies and Ghost Whisperer TV shows. There is a much longer tradition to resolving the mysteries and problems that make ghosts unable to move on. This Anthology tells the story of two spirit guides and their human writer-turned-amateur-sleuth as they encounter strange ghosts and specters, as well as real-life mortal dangers. Their growing team of helpful characters assist them to solve these phantasmic puzzles in each story. This is the first collected anthology of four short stories: * Ghost Hunters * Why Vampires Suck At Haunting * When Fireballs Collide * Ghost Exterminators Inc. Ghost Hunters It started with a dream. In it, John Earl Stark solved the problem of a ghost he met. Or did he? It was a dream, after all. The next day he meets two women who visit his cabin, arriving out of the blue, literally. (Well, one arrived with pitched black darkness which filled his cabin and made her cough.) These two have an offer for Stark. All he really wanted was to enjoy the small cabin and solitude so he could write his detective stories. These ladies had another offer - to help them solve the reasons ghosts don't move on. Plenty of new inspiration for stories, decent pay, won't interrupt his writing schedule. Of course, he could die doing Why Vampires Suck at Haunting Vampires aren't good at everything. For instance, they suck at haunting. John Earl Stark continues his adventures in ghost hunting. Encountering a female ghost who attacks him in a gothic Victorian mansion left him bitten, but alive. Sal and Jude, his employers and guides, came in from a nearby room, shocked. Obviously, John was going to need more training to survive these attacks. But this particular ghost was still haunting and still attacking people with neck When Fireballs Collide Facing a fireball and living to tell about it wasn't in John's plans for the day. But when he and his two female spirit guides were caught behind a red subcompact taking hit after hit of fireballs, some one had to do something. Because they could only keep taking those hits for so long. Something in what he said made one of the girls step up and get the attention of whoever was throwing those fireballs at them. A distraction long enough for everyone to escape. Only to realize that they still hadn't finished their assignment and would need to go Ghost Exterminators, Inc. Fiction is stranger than Fact, but also father and mother to it. From the archives of the Ghost Hunters Library, here a classic tale of an amateur paranormal enthusiast who happens on a solution to nagging ghost infestations. This tale of his runaway success, the perils of being too effective, and exacting revenge against a greedy sanitarium owner for non-payment of services rendered. Exciting and humorous, sit back and enjoy this short tale of ghoulish entrepreneurship.
