Synopsis A Fright to the Death by : Dawn Eastman

From the author of Be Careful What You Witch For, here is the newest Family Fortune Mystery, starring former cop Clyde Fortune, who—snowbound with her kooky family in a creepy castle—is climbing the walls and combing the halls, looking for a cold-blooded killer… After their flight to Mexico is cancelled, Clyde and her detective boyfriend, Mac, end up snowed in with their families at a supposedly haunted hotel. Clyde’s tarot card reading mother, Rose, is making dire predictions for the weekend, and self-proclaimed pet psychic Aunt Vi is enchanted by the legend of the hotel’s ghost—until the power goes out and a body turns up. With a hotel full of stranded suspects, Clyde will have to draw on all her skills—both the police ones she’d rather forget and the psychic ones she’d rather ignore—to solve the bone-chilling mystery before someone else gets iced…

Synopsis Fright by : Cornell Woolrich

A man. A woman. A kiss in the dark. That is how it begins. But before his nightmare ends, Prescott Marshall will learn that kisses and darkness can both hide evil intent - and that the worst darkness of all may be lurking inside him. Lost for more than half a century and never before published under Cornell Woolrich's real name, FRIGHT is a breathtaking noir crime novel worthy of the writer who has been called "the Hitchcock of the written word" and "one of the giants of mystery fiction."

Synopsis Halloween and Other Festivals of Death and Life by : Jack Santino

However, the essays in this volume also suggest that there is something ironic and unsettling about the immense popularity of a holiday whose main images are of death, evil, and the grotesque. Halloween and Other Festivals of Death and Life is a unique contribution that questions our concepts of religiosity and spirituality while contributing to our understanding of Halloween as a rich and diverse reflection of our society's past, present, and future identity.

Synopsis Be Careful What You Witch For by : Dawn Eastman

Leaving a traumatic police career behind, Clyde Fortune has returned to her seemingly quiet hometown of Crystal Haven, Michigan. In spite of the psychic powers of its residents, there’s no telling what trouble is brewing in this burg… The highlight of this year's fall festival in Crystal Haven is a bonfire with a witch’s cauldron resting over it. Clyde’s best friend, Diana, leads a ritual to divine the future, but it seems no one foresees that one of their own will drop dead—or that Diana will be a prime suspect. Clyde already has her hands full with her eccentric family, runaway nephew, and burgeoning secret romance with a hunky homicide detective. But after another coven member is attacked, Clyde suspects there’s a witch hunt afoot and focuses her psychic and sleuthing skills to clear her friend’s name and catch a killer.

Synopsis Death's Door by : Jennifer Allis Provost

After fourteen long years, Meri’s family is whole again, but her life has become stranger than ever. For starters, Meri’s mother took her and her brother, Kevin, down to Kilstiffen, the sunken city of which her grandfather is the king. Not only is Meri the heiress of Kilstiffen, her grandfather expects her to act the part. Worse, those who live below don’t trust surface dwellers, including Meri’s father. As if all of that wasn’t stressful enough, school is starting up again with a new headmaster, there’s a new boy in town who won’t leave Meri alone, and Sister Mary Katherine isn’t allowed to teach her literature classes any longer. Despite all of that, Meri also has Aodhan, her dear friend who’s now become something more. As they navigate their new, closer relationship, Meri learns of more threats cropping up. Another sea kingdom has developed an interest in Kilstiffen, and Meri and her brother unwittingly get wrapped up in their schemes. Add to that the appearance of a collector of souls and a fairy that can seduce females with a touch, and Meri’s quiet fishing village starts resembling a fairy tale gone wrong. To top it off, the Master of the Dead is in town, and he wants to reclaim his home: Tech Duinn, the legendary house of the dead. The last time he had access to Tech Duinn, the streets ran red with the blood of his victims. Meri’s always believed that with Aodhan at her side, they could do anything—but how can they withstand a host of threats that bring them right to Death’s Door?
