Mr. November

By Saul Tanpepper

Hoping to reconcile the memory of his brother’s horrific death many years before, a man returns to his childhood hometown and the house that has haunted him since that long-ago Halloween night. Mr. November is a ghost story, a coming-of-age tale, and a tribute to a favorite American pasttime.

There are all manner of hauntings: of places, of things, of people. There are hauntings of the mind, just as there are hauntings of the body and of the soul. But the worst sort of haunting is the kind which infects the spirit, entwines with it, subsumes it. The kind that cannot be easily exorcised.
Not, at least, without first killing the host.
