Blood, Death, and Fears: The Haunting of Old South Pittsburg Hospital by Richard Estep

 

🌟🌟🌟🌟

Four "Boo Spooky" Stars

Creepy Vibes! 

A small taste of what lies within:

Paranormal Investigator and author of this book, Richard Estep and his paranormal crew explore and interact with spirits from a closed down and abandoned hospital called "Old South Pittsburg Hospital" (OSPH for short and located in Tennessee) as they wanted to find out for themselves if spirits and bad energies were trapped inside the hospital.  

Thoughts:

This book goes deep into details of the old hospital as the author and investigator, Richard Estep interviews staff from when the hospital was active and when it was starting to go downhill as Estep wanted to know what caused the hospital to be considered haunted. Estep also does quite a bit of debunking which means he makes sure that the rumors he has heard about the place are in fact rumors or if the rumors are true.  

The writing style of this author just flows along as he tells the experiences of what others have gone through and then the story kicks up a notch when Estep and his team set out to investigate the hospital. The first 30% or so of the book is mostly interviews with staff that once worked there then the last part of the book is all about Estep and his crew with their experiences of their paranormal investigation. This is my second book that I have read by Estep and look forward to reading more of his true paranormal accounts of haunted locations.

House of Decay by Boris Bacic

 

🌟🌟🌟🌟

Four "Gore Terror" Stars

Do Not Explore Abandoned Homes! 

A small taste of what lies within:

High school friends, Tyler, Caleb, and Quinn will be heading off to college so they decide to do one last road trip adventure together. The friends go down a lonesome dirt road just to see where it takes them and they find an old house that looks to be abandoned.  

Tyler and Quinn dare Caleb to go inside the house and explore but when Caleb enters the home without returning Tyler and Quinn get worried so they enter the house as well to look for Caleb. 

The friends find more than they bargained for inside the house as someone is home and they are not happy that three teenagers have entered their domain! 

That is about all I can hand out with a small taste so if you want to know more then go read this book!

Thoughts:

This book starts off with a bang and then continues at that speed throughout the entire book as when the teenage characters enter the house the author ratchets up the terror! The book has tons of extreme situations within the story and the book goes into gore overdrive as the author keeps kicking it up a notch! 

This was my second book by this author and I really like his writing style as he pulls me into the story quick and keeps me there for the duration of the book. Looking forward to reading more books by this author in the future!

The Silver Dagger (The Vampires of Crimson Cove #2) by Alistair Cross

 

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Five "Bloody Fangs" Stars

Enter Crimson Cove At Your Own Risk!

A small taste of what lies within:

Brothers Brooks and Cade Coulter are back in this second installment as things escalated in book one as Brooks and Cade were tossed into a vampire nest with things taking a bad turn however the main vampire, Gretchen was supposed to have been laid to rest but vampires are not known for dying easily and Brooks and Cade are thrown right back into the mist of fighting for their lives!

That is about all I can hand out with a small taste so if you want to know more then go read this series!

Thoughts:

This second book just grabbed me and pulled me right back into this world of Crimson Cove. The story comes alive as vampires start emerging and the Colter brothers are tossed around inside a blender of emotions as both brothers end up on opposite sides as things begin to heat up in Crimson Cove. 

There were some breath-hitching moments with this story as things happen quickly and I had a hard time putting the book down! The story stays at a steady pace throughout the book and really never slows down. The closer I got to the end the more things happened keeping me awake a few nights as the pace picked up speed! Looking forward to book three to see what happens next in the Crimson Cove saga!

Heirloom by Graham Masterton

 

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Five "Haunted Hell" Stars

What Would You Do With A Haunted Chair?

A small taste of what lies within:

Ricky Delatolla is an antiques dealer. A man by the name of Mr. Grant stops at Ricky's house with a truck load of antiques wanting to sell them to Ricky but Ricky is hesitant about the antiques until he sees a chair that has unusual carvings on it. Mr. Grant is eager to give the chair away but Ricky has a weird feeling about it all but when Mr. Grant leaves the chair in the driveway along with some other antiques then Ricky wonders what is going on. 

Ricky soon finds out that the chair is not just a normal chair but a chair that has evil tendencies and he soon wishes that he never laid eyes on it as whatever is haunting the chair is ready to turn Ricky's life upside down!

That is about all I can hand out with a small taste so if you want to know more then go read this book!

Thoughts:

This story grabbed me right away as the author pulled me into the story quickly as I was curious about the chair and what could possibly be in store for the character Ricky. The chair is the focal point in this story and the whole book is pulsing with evil vibes as the characters have to deal with a portal to hell chair that they cannot get rid of!

This book goes deep into the occult themes along with keeping me pinned in my seat as I read half the book in one sitting as I couldn't sleep one night and stayed up a few hours as the story went into overdrive with things happening to the characters because of the evil chair! 

I am never disappointed with a Masterton book and this story not only sunk its teeth into me it tossed me into the throes of hell!

Devil Music by Michael Penning

 

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Five "Hell Ride Horror" Stars

How Far Would You Go to See Justice Done?

A small taste of what lies within:

Rowan Pierce wants revenge any way she can for the murder of her daughter as two classmate boys took her daughter's life.  

She blames some of the murder on the metal band Haruspex for their song lyrics, but when Rowan goes to confront the lead singer Cole Abel for what he did to her daughter she finds out that Cole can help her tap into her raw emotions through the metal music and the occult to make the murderers pay for their crimes another way - though that will lead her on a path into hell - but does she want to follow that path? 

That is about all I can hand out with a small taste so if you are intrigued then go read this book!

Thoughts:

This book was one "hell of a ride" into terror as the character Rowan seeks revenge for her daughter. The author weaves an emotional story of just how far a mother will go to get vengeance for her child. The author, Michael Penning taps into deep emotions in this story and brings everything to a crescendo boil as the story goes deep into the heart of the character Rowan. 

I have been reading this author for awhile now as I am reading a series of books by him and his stories always capture the essence of what is happening within the story. He brings raw emotions to the table in this book and goes deep into the occult theme showing just how far anyone would go to see justice done. 

The pace was fast in this book as I would find myself reading it late into the night as I could not put the book down! Another great book by this author!

The Ojanox I: Scream in the Dark (The Ojanox Series Book 1) by Daemon Manx

 

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Five "Twisted Terror" Stars

What Has Invaded Garrett Grove? 

A small taste of what lies within:

The small town of Garrett Grove is preparing for Halloween and two friends, Troy and Rob have decided to make a haunted house project to give the kids of Garrett Grove a scare, but something stirs in the small town - something evil has invaded the heart and soul of the town bringing death to the small community. 

The town will need to figure out why the people are dying and what is killing their friends/neighbors as it will consume them all if they don't find out how to stop it! 

That is about all I can hand out with a small taste so if you are intrigued then go read this book! 

Thoughts:

This is my first time reading this author and "WOW" I was pulled right into the story line right away! Read the first 27% of the book within a few hours and could barely put it down! The author gives out visuals of the small town of Garrett Grove making it feel like you are really there experiencing the cool autumn air and the Halloween theme that has come into the town. 

I loved all the characters in this book and they each have their own personality - I could feel their bewilderment of what was taking place in their town and could feel the horror weaving its tendrils around each of them as they tried to figure out what was going on. 

The pace of the book never lets up as it careens along at a high rate of speed! I would find myself reading late into the night with this book and even stayed up till near 3 am one morning as I just could not put the book down! 

This is a four part series and I am looking forward to stepping foot into book two here soon as I want to see what happens next!

Darling Girls (The Vampires of Candle Bay and Crimson Cove) by Tamara Thorne and Alistair Cross

 

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Five "Bloody Fangs" Stars

What Happens at the Biting Man Festival?

A small taste of what lies within:

The Biting Man Festival is coming to Eternity, California and the vampires are coming out in full swing to attend. Vampires from Candle Bay and Crimson Cove are planning on having some fun at the festival but someone is planning on thwarting their plans - a vampire hunter is going to attend as well causing some chaos in the process! 

That is about all I can hand out with a small taste without giving away spoilers as there is so much that happens within this story that I cannot divulge anything else so if you are intrigued then go read this book!

Thoughts:

This book is sort of a companion book to the book Candle Bay by Tamara Thorne and Crimson Cove by Alistair Cross and it sort of fits in between both books as it brings together vampires from both series into this book so to understand background on the vampires within this story it might be best to read those other two books first to understand what takes place in this book. 

There is quite a bit of vampire action that lies within this book along with some suspense and intrigue. Both authors come together and bring these characters to life within these pages. Lots of edge of the seat tension when everything picks up speed the story barrels along quickly. This book is a hefty one though but the story pulled me back into the lives of some of the vampire characters from the other books I have read by these authors! Looking forward to reading the rest of the books that these authors wrote that are weaved around the vampires!
