  🎭 Event planner Evangeline "Eva" Blackwood is orchestrating the social event of the season—the annual Venetian Masquerade Ball at the historic Crestwood Manor. The evening is a sparkling success until the lights flicker and the town's most influential philanthropist is found dead in the conservatory, still wearing her exquisite peacock mask. With all the guests in disguise and alibis impossible to verify, Eva realizes the killer could be anyone from the wealthy socialite circling nearby to the quiet librarian who organized the historical exhibit. Teaming up with the manor's handsome archivist, Eva must decipher clues hidden in the ball's elaborate decorations, musical selections, and even the secret language of fans used by masked attendees. But as she peels back the layers of deception, Eva uncovers a web of blackmail, stolen identities, and old scandals that someone is willing to kill to keep hidden. With the masks about to come off, Eva must reveal the killer before they decide one more disguise is needed—permanently.

  Years ago, the Academy bore witness to a gruesome tragedy. Macie's sister, the valiant Jocelyn Graves, was cruelly taken from the world when she was pushed from the school's roof by a malevolent shadow entity. This spectral figure is known as Oliver. 
   
   
   
  He is an ancient, terrifying entity known as one of the October People. Steeped in Native American folklore, these spectral beings return to the Gulf Coast each October, for a brief, deadly three-day stint. Their singular aim? To steal from the living, to kill the living. White stones, black crow feathers . . . innocuous at first glance, but they mark you for death. 
   
   
   
  As the month of October draws near, the Gulf Coast Paranormal team must delve into the dangerous world of the October People and solve the mystery of Oliver's true identity. With the memory of Jocelyn's tragic death a constant reminder of the danger they face, they must prevent the entity from claiming more lives. 
   
   
   
  As the team prepares to face Oliver once more, they must unravel the mysteries of the ancient legends and avoid falling into the same deadly trap. Will they survive this return to Leaf Academy or will they, too, become victims of the October People?

  Almost always when we think of Ghost Stories, we first think of those written by the Victorians. 
   
  When you consider the depth of literary talent available over the extraordinary length of Queen Victoria’s reign, allied to the fascination with their all things spiritual on ‘the other side’, then perhaps it’s simply right place, right time.  
   
  Whatever the reasons given or proffered the reality and known facts are that if you want a really good ghost story to bring that edge of chill, that foreboding of dread, that feeling that in an empty house we are not quite alone and that sometimes the sharp, sheer shock of what just happened is upon us then look no further than ‘The Victorian Ghost Story’ for your reading and listening pleasure.
