Emily Spook's reputation in the indy art scene is growing. Her paintings have a devoted following and the ranks of that group continue to swell more every day. Emily should be thrilled but instead she's terrified. You see, ever since she was a young girl, Emily has been somewhat of a hostel for ghosts. Visitors from the ether would drop in for a few days or a month or even years and from those specters Emily would draw inspiration. But lately the ghosts have disappeared, leaving Emily alone and unable to touch a canvas. When Simon's consciousness first shows up inside Emily's skull she's relieved, but before long she's fallen into the same web of mystics and murder that ended Simon's life. Can the unlikely pair discover the truth about Simon's gruesome death or will Emily join the spirits she's played host to all these years?

5.0 out of 5 stars
Great story & art. It's worth cover price...a steal at Amazon's discount.,

This review is from: Spooked Volume 1 (v. 1) (Paperback)
This story, about a girl who finds herself talking to dead people, started off with a concept that everyone seems to have jumped on. Sixth Sense Meets "insert any other concept here". Luckily for us, Antony didn't stick with the "Ghost Whisperer" angle. I highly recommend this overlooked indy gem.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Spooky thriller!,
By
This review is from: Spooked Volume 1 (v. 1) (Paperback)
I gave this dark, spooky thriller 5 stars because of the incredible illustrations by Ross Campbell. Emily is so expressive - you can feel her anguish. The story itself gets 4 stars because Johnston wraps up the ending too fast. I'm not really sure what road Emily is going to choose, but I sure do hope that he's writing a sequel so I can find out and that Campbell will be doing the illustrations!
