Remember way back in the old days (showing my age here), when YouTube didn’t have premium and we used to have all those ghost hunting shows? I think Ghost Hunter was one of them. Anyway, I digress, but basically a crew goes and investigates some spooky places and sees ‘ghosts’.
That is what Zap and his team do. They have a popular ghost hunting show that was huge in its heyday but now there are younger audiences, and they are tired of seeing the same spiel in a different location. This means that the team must figure out a way to mix it up in order to keep their ratings up and keep their show from being canned.
Aside from that stress, there is also a matter of the horrific nightmares that Zap is having that leaves him unsettled and tired. Nightmares that seem to bleed over into the day when weird things start happening and tragedy befalls them.
I found this book admittedly a little slow to start but then it picks up and boy, does it ever pick up. It is scary in the best way and reminded me a little of Heart Shaped Box. They are different stories and books, but the feeling is much the same. There are things happening that are out of the characters control, and things get desperate as they try to set things straight.
This is my second book by Stoney Brooks, and I’m officially convinced he’s a solid horror writer. I’ve enjoyed both books I’ve read so far, and I’m genuinely looking forward to seeing what he does next.

An introduction to the Thriller genre, these books are part of the cultural zeitgeist or the 'canon' that many would recognize. Look for more niche titles in later Starter Pack volumes.
