Local Haunts: A Comic Anthology

Spooky stories from our hometowns to yours.

Hi everyone, Emily here!

This anthology, Local Haunts, is on kickstarter, and I have a comic in it with Falconhyrste creator Melissa Capriglione!

Local Haunts is an anthology of spooky stories from our hometowns to yours. Featuring over 120 pages of full color comics, Local Haunts collects small town legends, family ghost stories, and fears that span across cultures.

My story is about the legend of Elvira, an urban legend from my hometown of Woodstock, Illinois! You can see concept art of our comic characters in the kickstarter page.

Check it out and if you are a fan of my writing please consider supporting our kickstarter! Reblogs are STRONGLY encouraged!

Local Jaunts & Haunts: The Belvoir Winery

Good Morning Everybody,

Today I wanted to get more in the spirit of things with Halloween.

I actually visited a local haunted location and wanted to share my brief experience there.

Today's post is all about The Belvoir Winery.

How about you? Is there a local haunt you love to frequent? Have you been to The Belvoir Winery?

Feel free to comment. I'd love to start a dialogue!

Calimon Graal sent some delightful Halloween fan art my way! It’s Emily dressed up as a skeleton, and a very stylish one at that! Make sure to check out her comics in the Fenauriverse! 

Also, in celebration of the spooky times, the kickstarter for LOCAL HAUNTS is now live! Read tales of the ghosts that live in your backyard and on main street in one fantastic collection. My comic in the anthology is about our local revolutionary general “Mad” Anthony Wayne, who haunts PA Rt 322.

Also! I’ll be at DERPYCON in Morristown, NJ, November 9-11. Stop on by and grab a copy of Vatican Assassins, some witch stickers, planets, and more! Even physical copies of Black Ball! (If they come in on time....ah!)

I’ll see all you cool kids back here on Monday, 5 November, for the next part of our story!

Good Morning Everyone,

For today’s post I wanted to broadcast about something that have inspired me over the past weekend. I live for the element of horror and the paranormal, so it’s no wonder why I spent my weekend visiting a local haunt or two.

My roomies, myself, and a friend of mine went to the McInteer Villa in Atchison, Kansas. This house’s history goes back over 100 years, and with numerous deaths within, the spirits were definitely present. For me personally, I definitely felt something in the attic and the ground floor near the kitchen, but especially the kitchen. It was very strange.

The owner was telling us all about her experiences when the grandfather clock that I was standing next to chimed. She looked at us kind of oddly and said it hadn’t been working all day. Then just a moment later my back suddenly felt very cold. Now, if you know me, you know that I’m a heater. It’s very difficult for me to feel cold. To make matters even more eerie, I felt the sensation of a hand brushing up my arm shortly after that.

So while I can’t confirm or deny the presence of spirits there, it was definitely an experience I won’t forget. Some friends and I also plan on booking the house for one night in the near future, which will allow us access to the basement, which the owner refuses to go into.

So, if you find yourself in Kansas, consider visiting this local house for a haunt!
