Ghost Eaters

By Clay McLeod Chapman

Book Overview

An emotionally devastating supernatural horror novel in which a grieving woman takes a mysterious drug that allows her to see the dead--only to unleash terrifying forces that haunt every corner of her life.

"A Gothic-punk graveyard tale about what haunts history and what haunts the human soul. An addicting read that draws you into its descent from the first page."--Chuck Wendig, New York Times best-selling author of The Book of Accidents

One of Vulture's Best Horror Novels of 2022.

When Erin's former boyfriend Silas dies from an overdose, she's left carrying years of heartbreak, regret, and unanswered questions. Then she discovers Ghost, an underground drug rumored to let users see and communicate with the dead. Hoping for one final conversation with the man she couldn't save, Erin takes the drug--and discovers that some doors should never be opened.

Each encounter with Silas pulls Erin deeper into a terrifying world where restless spirits refuse to stay buried and horrifying entities lurk just beyond the edge of reality. As the boundary between the living and the dead collapses, Erin must confront not only supernatural evil but also the devastating consequences of obsession, trauma, and refusing to let go.

Blending psychological horror, ghost story, Southern Gothic atmosphere, and deeply human emotion, Ghost Eaters is an unforgettable exploration of love, addiction, and loss, perfect for readers who crave character-driven horror with chilling scares and emotional resonance that lingers long after the final page.
