Review: Ghostland by Duncan Ralston

Ghostland by Duncan Ralston

Ghosts are real! It’s been scientifically proven. And now a company has brought all of America’s most famous haunting spirits together into one amusement park—a park in which all of the protections against the spirits are about to come crashing down.

While this sounds like a great setting for a horror movie, it’s really not. It’s the setting of an action-adventure movie along the lines of Jurassic Park but with less eerie tension. Basically this is the story about our intrepid heroes running around killing the ghosts while they slowly discover why everything is happening. That solution was fun. The book in general is fun. But it’s not the horror novel that the title and blurb suggest and that left me feeling a bit disappointed and impatient as I worked my way to the end.
