Esterville (Book 1) by schma10

Esterville, Illinois is one of the safest towns on the planet. Almost ninety-nine million people go there to buy clothes, read paperback novels, and drink coffee from warm cafes. But in spite of its quiet charm, many ghosts, vampires, and various monsters come here to roam across the murky floors of alleyways. As most Esterville citizens tend to look away from legends the only person who sees supernatural monsters, is a sixteen-year-old boy named Oliver Harper. Now, he is not an ordinary child: Oliver hangs out with his vampire best friend, Amelia Parker, reads gruesome novels, and spends most of his time studying cemeteries. With his single mother, Caitlin Harper, working in the Esterville Bookstore, Oliver uses his trusty sixth sense to help ghosts and supernatural monsters who have problems with the living. But as he sees a ghost of a construction worker, harassing his ex-girlfriend, it is going to take a lot of wits, bravery, and sarcasm to help him move on... Inspired by Harry Potter, The Exorcist, and Supernatural
