New Review for Spectre Nightmares and Visitations at Horror Novel Reviews

Just found out I have a review for my horror and dark fantasy collection, Spectre Nightmares and Visitations!

Some of the review: Spectre Nightmares and Visitations is a great collection of short stories from quite an imaginative story teller. These are the stories you would find in “The Outer Limits” or “One Step Beyond,” stories that stretch the imagination. Covering the gamut you’ll find ghosts, werewolves, other-worldly beings, and even wicked cats, oh my! Read the rest at http://horrornovelreviews.com/…/pamel...

Goodreds Giveaway for Upcoming Ghost Book of Mine

You can enter my Goodreads giveaway for my upcoming release, Paranormal Petersburg, Virginia, and the Tri-Cities Area. https://www.goodreads.com/giveaway/sh...

Travel to Petersburg, Virginia, and the surrounding areas of Colonial Heights, Hopewell, Prince George, Dinwiddie, and nearby Ettrick-Matoaca, Enon, and Chester to discover what spirits, monsters, UFOs, and legends await the unwary. Why are the Union and Confederate spirits still fighting the Civil War in the battlefields? Who is the lady in blue who haunts Weston Plantation House? Learn what the phantoms at Peter Jones Trading Post will do to keep from being photographed. Drink tea with runaway slaves still hiding on the top floor above the Blue Willow Tea Room. Are Edgar Allan Poe and his bride still on their honeymoon at Hiram Haines Coffee and Ale House? Why does the Goatman stalk young lovers? Meet the ghosts of Violet Bank Museum that greet guests at the house. Hauntingly active as they share space with the living, the dead refuse to give up their undead residency.
