Sinopse

Varla Ventura, Coast to Coast favorite, Weird News blogger on Huffington Post, and author of The Book of the Bizarre and Beyond Bizarre, introduces Weiser Books’ new Collection of forgotten occult classics. Paranormal Parlor is an eerie assemblage of affordable digital editions, curated with Varla’s sixth sense for tales of the weird and unusual. First published in 1859's Christmas edition of All Year Round, a publication edited by Charles Dickens, as a collection of tales centered around Dickens' own story about The Haunted House. Set in an abandoned house where the guests are all asked to take up residence in one of each of the rooms and spend the Twelfth Night of Christmas (once believed to be a night of highest magical power when the veil between the mortal and the sprit world was thinnest). In a Clue-like evening, each of the rooms is inhabited and Dickens published the collection of eight stories with different authors writing from the point of view of the ghosts in each room. Join Englishwoman and popular author  of the 1800s Hesba Stretton aka Sarah Smith as she recalls the story of the Ghost in the Clock Room.

    Step into the shadowed threshold of The Demon’s Veil, an audiobook that draws you into a realm where unseen forces conspire to shroud reality in darkness. In this haunting voyage, you’ll:
    
     
    Uncover the ancient legend of a veil woven from tortured souls—its threads binding the living world to a realm of unspeakable horror.
    
     
    Follow a courageous scholar and a skeptical investigator as they trace cryptic symbols carved into ruined temples and long-forgotten corridors, desperate to unravel the veil’s deadly secret.
    
     
    Feel the veil’s malevolent influence seep into every whisper of wind and flicker of candlelight, warping perception and summoning nightmarish visions.
    
     
    Confront the thin barrier between hope and despair when the demon lurking beyond the veil reaches through, testing your resolve and your very sense of self.
    
    
     
    Narrated with a richly atmospheric cadence and woven with subtle, spine-chilling soundscapes—from distant, guttural murmurs to the soft crackle of otherworldly energy—The Demon’s Veil immerses you in a chilling battle for reality itself. Press play…and beware: once the veil is lifted, nothing remains the same.

    Read by the author, Tracy Whitwell.The Hidden Dead is the fourth book in a hilarious series featuring Tanz, the accidental medium who, with the help of the dead, has become an unwilling crime-solver. When the dead call, she listens. . .On a night out in a London bar, our accidental medium Tanz meets Einar, a charismatic and sexy Viking travelling for business. He offers Tanz an irresistible proposition: return to Iceland with him for an all-expenses-paid writing retreat and some no-strings-attached fun.Promised a mix of work, play and maybe a bit of romance, Tanz follows her heart (and the voices in her head) off to Iceland on a whim; but when she arrives, she quickly realises that Einar and his charm might not be all they're cracked up to be.Heartbroken, abandoned and left to the mercy of the long, haunting nights, Tanz finds herself surrounded not just by the rugged beauty of a land steeped in legend but also the mysteries that lurk in its shadows. With only the dead for guidance, Tanz is thrust back into the heart of a chilling cold case, where the echoes of the forgotten and the allure of old magic compel her to listen, to understand and to act. . .

    An experimental surgery. A plague of suicides. Through layering pieces of testimony, the connection between these events leads to a startling conclusion.  
    Inspired by a trip to a graveyard in Wales, the novella was originally not well received. The Great God Pan is now considered an excellent example of Gothic fiction, and has influenced such writers as Bram Stoker, H.P. Lovecraft, Stephen King, and Ray Bradbury.
