Welcome to Nightmare Island by Devin Cabrera

Four "Ghosts On The Loose" Stars


Malevolent Ghosts!

A small taste of what lies within:

Five friends (Jonah, Audrey, Chuck, Annie and Kevin) decide that they want to take a paranormal ghost tour to an island that is known to be a haunted attraction that has ghosts. The only downside is the only way to reach the island is by boat and the boat will leave then have to come back to pick them up. 

The friends just want to experience the island and see if it lives up to what it is known for but something happens while they are there and the ghosts that were caged becomes free taking over the island and going after the friends. It becomes an act of survival for all of them!

Thoughts:

This was my first time reading this author and I thought the story was a grabber as once the ghosts get loose on the island it becomes a wild free for all.  A lot of reviewers have compared this book to Thirteen Ghosts and Jurassic Park which is about right, however, I am comparing it more to the book "Ghostland" by author, Duncan Ralston that was published in 2019. 

This is my opinion only but to me the "ghosts being behind barriers and getting loose" is not an original concept by this author. The background setting with characters is different, and the ghosts are different, but that is about all that is different. Other than that observation the book is loaded with ghost action and lots of blood.
