GHOST
COLLEGE

By Scott Nicholson & J.R. Rain

First in a new series featuring paranormal investigators Ellen and
Monty Drew. Ellen claims to possess a sixth sense but Monty, a former P.I.,
only believes what he can see. She views their work as a sacred mission while
Monty just wants a happy wife and a paycheck.

Then the Drews are summoned to a Southern California bible college
after workers report hearing mysterious voices at night. When they encounter
the unhappy ghost of a young girl, Monty's skepticism is shaken, but he
resolves to help his wife free the trapped spirit. Their search uncovers the
Latin phrase "Non omnis moriar"—
not all of me shall die
—and
they learn more about the site’s history as a Catholic school destroyed by an
earthquake. But a mysterious presence has plans of its own for the young ghost,
and Monty and Ellen must go head to head with a Dark Master that’s had more
than a century of practice in demonic deeds.

H.T. Night

People call him Spider. And people come to him when they have a
problem. So when teenager Parker Cole approaches Spider at night school, he
figures she's just another problem waiting to happen. But then she tells him
about her father, who runs a cult called Cloudland based at the foot of
mystical Mount Shasta, California. And then she tells Spider about her best
friend, who is now dead, her body completely drained of blood. Spider wonders
if the death is the work of a fellow vampire...or if he's now the target of a
sinister game designed to lure him to Cloudland, where darker mysteries await.

THE HARVEST

By Scott Nicholson

It falls
from the heavens and crashes to earth in the remote southern Appalachian
Mountains.

The alien
roots creep into the forest, drawn by the intoxicating cellular activity of the
humus and loam. The creature feeds on the surrounding organisms, exploring, assimilating,
and altering the life forms it encounters. Plants wilt from the contact, trees
wither, animals become deformed monstrosities, and people become something both
more and less than human.

A telepathic psychology professor, a
moonshine-swilling dirt farmer, a wealthy developer, and a bitter recluse team
up to take on the otherwordly force that is infecting their town. The author’s
preferred edition of the 2003 paperback release
The Harvest
.
