Writers Digest Comments: Pumpkin Spirits presents with a fantastic cover. I was hooked immediately. I just grabbed me, shook me and didn't let go. Iwas really very excited when I discovered that the author has afantastic writing style and a voice that is perfectly suited for thegenre. This is a good book. Now, while the plot(s) is not the mostoriginal plot I've ever read, it certainly kept me entertained andturning the pages. The author has done a great job with this entry. Anice, satisfying collection of short stories left me with a smile on myface. This was just simply a solid Poe-esque entry. My favorite story was...The Night Mirror or maybe it was Maggie? Too hard to choose just one. Best of luck with this book and I hope to read more from this author.Thank you for sharing your imagination and your world of "fun" horrorwith us. I love a good ghost story and this book certainly fits thebill. (2017)



"Nice set of short stories that have just the rightamount of scariness for this age group. I really enjoyed them."-Benjamin Franklin Awards Reviewer (2017)
