Review is posted on Books on Silver Wings blog.3.5 Stars rounded to 3What a fun story for Halloween! The story is about a ghost haunting an old mansion for centuries. A practical, nonbeliever in the supernatural man moves into the haunted house. He survives the screams and moans at night but finally caves in and calls a ghost hunter when the walls start to bleed.I like both characters through the short glimpse I got from the short page length. The plot is simple but perfect for this story. Some secrets of the ghost-hunter trade are unique ideas that adds to this novella's charm and makes some writing references. Robert is a journalist and Simon, the ghost-hunter uses his skin as a writing pad for the ghosts to vent and that is the way for him to exorcise the ghost.A comical ending completes this grand (though not very scary) tale of a haunted house. This is a short, fun read that's perfect for the Halloween season and as a stress reliever after a long day.*review copy received in exchange for an honest review*
