The year is 2016 and spiritual activity has only been on a steady increase since the 80's. A lot has happened since those days, and the Ghostbusters have become a franchise.
Enter Jordan Ross and Cynthia Palmer. One a paranormal investigator with big dreams, the other a former member of the military who is looking for direction in her life. When Iowa is struck with a ridiculously sharp increase in paranormal visitations they decide to invest in the franchise and spiritually bust some heads, and potentially turn a profit.
Behind the scenes, a cult is clearing the path for the Akkadian God of Mischief, Erra.
Can the newly formed Des Moines chapter of the Ghostbusters turn the tide on the paranormal wave hitting the midwest, or will the whole world succumb to the dastardly dealings of Erra and his minions.
Ghostbusters: Des Moines was born out of my own Ghostbusters love and is what I would have wanted out of a reboot/sequel. In my perfect world, any sequel to the Ghostbusters movies lends itself toward being a hard hitting television series. In a similar manner to CSI, each major city would have their own franchise with different shows having crossovers. The team dynamic could be played with and changed. If you feel like writing a Ghostbusters for your city, please say so in the comments, I'd love to follow yours.
My Ghostbusters: Des Moines is intended to be a serialized story with Episodes building into seasons.
I'm working on episodes between working on chapters of some of my other works, and hope to put them out on a regular schedule. In the meantime, if you like my writing style, I have several published novels. Please check out http://amazon.com/author/matthewdavenport

The Hellhound's Mate
When Jordan Parrish was drawn to the small town of Beacon Hills, he never expected to find the existence of the supernatural there. He never intended to find out that he was supernatural there. And he especially didn't expect to find her there. Angie Stilinski is the fiery daughter of the Sheriff, and the last person he was ever expected to kiss, much less fall in love with. But when she turns out to be the only person able and willing to help him discover what he is and how to control his powers, Jordan discovers that he has absolutely no control over how he feels about Angie. Similarly, Angie Stilinski has been through a lot, more than maybe even the Hale's some might say. And her past has left her guarded to everyone but her father, baby brother and childhood best friend, at least until Jordan comes around. But despite their ability to always find each other and a connection neither one can explain, in a town like Beacon Hills, there's no such thing as a fairytale happy ending. #1 in jordanparrish #1 in derekhale #2 in scottmccall #2 in hunters #5 in stilesstilinski #5 in teenwolf #9 in allison #25 in hellhound #26 in action-adventure #31 in mates (Teen Wolf: seasons 3B-6B) (Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters or plotlines.

The Hidden Lives of Dick & Mary
My first book released in 2021. It's available as an eBook and paperback on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and other retailers. Released here in two parts. From debut author Xavier Poe Kane comes a paranormal pair of tales surrounding the unusual lives and acquaintances of Dick Fischer and Mary Deacon. Dick Fisher is a medium, and he and his rookie reality show team of ghost hunters find themselves entrenched in the military history of Jefferson Barracks. "Haunted Houses: Gateway to the West and the Beyond" follows the team in St. Louis, Missouri, as they discover spirits both friend and foe and learn what exactly it took to terrify the soldiers who claimed they weren't afraid of anything. Mary just wants someone to listen to her and not go running like they've just seen a ghost. In "The Tale of Mary Deacon", a young girl who wishes to go to space begins to get more than she bargained for. As she gets older and the abductions more invasive, she must learn who to trust and how. Both haunting and emotional, The Hidden Lives of Dick and Mary explores what can happen if you open your mind to the existence of things--and people--that go bump in the night. This is a work of fiction. Any references to historical events, real people, or real places are used fictitiously. All other names, characters, and places are products of the author's imagination. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events is purely coincidental. Copyright 2021Complete

The Death Thief
Delilah "Del" Cross went into the woods with the express purpose of never coming back out. However, death was interested in someone else that night. Del finds a murdered young woman, who soon rises from the dead as a zombie. Del is brought into a very special community living in happy isolation within the beautiful Whisper Valley. There creatures of myth and legend live together in harmony, following a strict set of rules that allow them to be who they are but also enjoy modern amenities like a steady Wifi connection and the latest smartphone. They all just want a normal life that's free from persecution by humans. For them, humans are instead seen as a commodity. Specifically they're known as the "Bodies" and they all have one year to either be sponsored or converted by one of the town's supernatural citizens. Del fills the vacancy left by the corpse in the woods, Calista Nightgrave. Calista should have been the next bride to a wealthy vampire, but instead she is a lowly zombie that's furious over the shift in her immortal afterlife. Both Del and Calista feel like something was stolen from them that fateful night, and they must work together to find the truth behind the death thief. *** Content Warning: Suicidal Ideation (Chapter 1: A Walk through the Woods) *** This is the first book in the Delilah Cross series.

Murdersphere Mosaic [ManXMan] [BoyXBoy]
A nobody finds himself an unwilling participant in a sprawling entertainment enterprise where fantasy, science-fiction, romance, sex, and death are served up, remixed and re-served all in the name of keeping the mysterious alien Audience satisfied. 9/17/2014 _Murdersphere Mosaic_ has finished. Thank you all current and future readers for taking a look at my first Wattpad publication. Now, for a secret. _Murdersphere Mosaic_ is the rough-draft sequel to _Blue Collar Immortal_. It did not start that way, but once I got going, a lot of thing fell into place, namely that despite starting with the intention to do fanfiction, I did not commit to actually "living" in the milieus of the Marvel or even DC Universe. They became set pieces, prop-culture references and points of familiarity for the protagonist. I am turning _Murdersphere Mosaic_ into a first draft and I plan to re-develop set life on IC-CG1. I'm stripping out the Marvel and DC references, but it will definitely be recognizable as a super-science, comic book influenced environment. The idea is quite exciting. Because this turned into a sequel, I want all of you to have the whole story. So, I am going to serialize _Blue Collar Immortal_ on Wattpad, one chapter a week, starting Friday, September 19, 2014. If you do not want to wait, or you want a different format, I have dropped the price of _Blue Collar Immortal_ to $0.99 in the Kindle store. Also, because they peripherally touch on _Blue Collar Immortal_ and _Murdersphere Mosaic_, I have reduced the prices of _Theocrat_ and _Geistwolf_ to $0.99 as well. After serializing _Blue Collar Immortal_, barring a change in circumstance, the plan is to start serializing _Geistwolf_ on a chapter a week cycle and after that, _Theocrat_. Things may change. I promise to let you know if that happens. http://www.amazon.com/Hank-Cannon/e/B00APRPIOG Thank you all for reading.Complete
