Spectrelike and sinewy, dressed in a grey cape and top hat, with a bone-white face and the eyes of a madman, The Ghoul crawls from the London sewers to kill bloodily, perversely, inexplicably In Vancouver, the horror-rock group Ghoul cavorts onstage, its act a bizarre and violent front for sinister skulduggery. Is there a connection between London's orgy of killings and Vancouver's underworld sleaze?

Book Description
A story about facing your fears and accepting differences, inspired by Arabic folk tales. The villagers are afraid of the “Ghoul.” For years, they’ve tiptoed around the village for fear of disturbing it. The monster doesn’t look like them, and it is believed to eat humans. One day, the brave Hassan embarks on a dangerous mission to face the long-feared Ghoul. When Hassan finally meets the Ghoul living on top of the mountain, he discovers that the Ghoul is just as terrified of people as they are of him. Hassan and the Ghoul realize that they can still be friends, despite their differences. A beautifully illustrated story that can be used as a springboard to discuss how we perceive those who are different and how our fears and prejudices may be built on false assumptions.

Book Description
Relive the heyday of The Ghoul, favorite TV wildman of thousands of Clevelanders and Detroiters who were glued to their tubes late Saturday nights in the mid-1970s and '80s. A direct descendent of Ghoulardi (the groundbreaking 1960s horror-movie host), The Ghoul took the televised outrageousness to even higher (or lower?) levels. This odd scrapbook includes rare on-set photographs, video captures, publicity stills, a flip-movie, show transcripts, and letters from outraged viewers and overwrought TV station executives.

Book Description
Men in Black meets Janet Evanovich’s Stephanie Plum in the fourth urban fantasy novel in the series starring seer Makenna Fraser and her fellow agents at Supernatural Protection & Investigation. The agents of Supernatural Protection & Investigations (SPI) are paid to keep the peace. But that’s not so easy when an endless evil threatens to tear that peace to pieces... A vampire gangster’s nephew is abducted off his yacht by a bunch of low-rent Creatures from the Black Lagoon. A slew of banks are knocked over by what looks like the cast of Night of the Living Dead. All of this may seem like the movies, but, I promise you, it’s not. I’m Makenna Fraser, seer for SPI, and I know the culprits aren’t wearing disguises or makeup. They’re real. Deadly real. Especially their leader—an ancient shapeshifter who leaves a trail of chaos and blood in his wake. Now, he’s taken my partner, Ian—and his intentions aren’t pretty. The worst part? This is only the beginning... The beginning of the end of the human race.
