Author Nick C. Brady continues to terrify readers in Night Ghost, a delightfully chilling novel reminiscent of the works of R.L. Stine and Christopher Pike. Blending the suspense of a thriller with the creeping strangeness of horror, this cross-genre story is a true standout in the young adult space.
In Night Ghost, 13-year-old Suellen Blanchard, her brother Andre, and their friends Slim and Brandon never pay much attention to the cemetery on the block—at least until Suellen notices someone moving inside the abandoned funeral home on the premises. When the group learns of a supposed ghost story in the graveyard, they break in to explore and find that maybe the mystery is more than just myth.
But whatever they disturbed in the cemetery refuses to remain there, plaguing the neighborhood with nighttime knocks on the door, an intruder, and even a vehicle following them home from school. After all, they’ve trespassed on more than just the lonely graves of the dead.
Although Night Ghost is intended for young adult readers over the age of 13, Brady’s accessible writing style and vivid imagery will appeal to adult audiences as well. The diverse cast ensures that characters from a range of backgrounds are represented on the page, making it easy for marginalized children to see themselves reflected in fiction.
Reviewers applaud Brady’s storytelling, describing Night Ghost as more like “watching a movie instead of reading a book.” The rich descriptive passages and three-dimensional characters help the reader step into this new world where haunted cemeteries and curses are just as real as the headstones beyond the gates. It’s clear that Nick C. Brady is an emerging force in the genre of urban suspense.
Night Ghost is available for purchase on Amazon.com or wherever books are sold.
