Featured by the Community Team! Experience the creeping presence of violent terror stalking the world again--the lingering, angry power of the Satanic dead! The Clemsworth Museum after midnight; a place empty of life but dripping with something more. A vault to be plundered by some, a house to be used for want of power by others. But for Godric Durst it is a location to be guarded in boredom, and for Adelheid Galli a paper-filled tomb to be organized for her career's sake. Their haunt by night and very lives shall soon be infiltrated by terrible violence, imperiled by the insidious machinations of the living--and the dead! ***** Cover design by Claire Keller http://atelier-chevalier.tumblr.com

Abe Barrett is surrounded by ghosts - some of them are even his roommates! But now Abe's visions show something dark coming, and it wants Abe dead. ***** When Abe Barrett's family died, he started seeing ghosts. Soon he was living with three of them, and it turns out ghosts are just as eccentric as people. Abe is bothered by the ghosts constantly since he doesn't want to solve their murders, avenge them or do much of anything. He just wants to do his job and relax. His dreams, however, have been getting darker as people in town start to disappear. Soon Abe realizes there is something hunting him, and that same threat was involved with his family's deaths. A legacy of darkness is chasing Abe Barrett, and his supernatural roommates may not be enough to save him. [[word count: 60,000-70,000 words]]

Love the creepy side of Japan? On the surface, all that people hear about Japan is their rich culture, and how weird some of their customs and inventions are. But aside from that, there is a darker side of Japan, including their unsettling urban legends. From different colored toilet paper to a poem that might curse you, this book will show you many of their urban legends are odd and downright creepy. And trust me, they will also show you yet another example of how weird Japan is. Oh, Japan... how I love you so much. The cover art is by an artist named Takato Yamamoto.
