An Irish Ghost Story

By L.I. Wilson

In this historical ghost story, set in Ireland in the early 1900s, twelve-year-old Teresa and her brothers set out to search for firewood on a cold late October day. They have no idea of the horrors waiting for them.

As night falls and the children find themselves far from home, surrounded by unseen terrors, Teresa begins to fear the old stories are true. On All Hallows' Eve, the barrier between the world of the living and the dead grows thin. Ghosts wander from the Otherworld into the land of the living, searching for bodies to claim and souls to steal.

Now the children must run for their lives, but some nightmares can't be outrun.

A suspenseful, spooky Halloween tale inspired by Irish folklore, this story will grip young readers and linger long after the final page. Spooky with age appropriate scares.

For fans of The Secret Lake by Karen Inglis, this atmospheric historical ghost story combines supernatural suspense, family secrets, and a gripping mystery. Includes black-and-white illustrations throughout.
