Literature & Fiction

Michael Gray Baughan

Genre Fiction

The dead are standing on their graves. Jake Lotts was stunned with how quickly and quietly it all happened - one morning, the East Coast just woke up and there they were, not an ounce of soil disturbed. Later that day, it was confirmed that the phenomenon was one of a global scale. Fear bred quickly, and the government reacted with heavy force. Cemeteries were quarantined and trespassing in one became a crime punishable - ironically - by death. The living are fighting simply to survive their own panic. When a nosy neighbor and a set of misunderstood circumstances land Jake in the chamber of horrors that now passes for a prison, everything changes. A series of bizarre events, things that Jake can only think to describe as miracles, send him on both a spiritual journey into his own psyche and a physical journey back to his old neighborhood to try and unravel the mystery and meaning of the "standers". What he discovers, however, is something much darker than he could have imagined.

When 12-year old Janie moves to a new town, she thinks her biggest challenges will be making new friends and fitting in at school, but discovering that she lives in a house with the ghost of a teen girl turns that all upside down. The more Janie learns about the peculiar spirit, the more layers are added to the mystery of what really happened in her home. When her new friends offer to help unravel that mystery with the aide of an ouija board, the girls find themselves in the midst of something far spookier than they ever could have imagined.
