Book Description

The veil that divides the worlds of the living and the dead-- a fixture which has largely shielded mankind from the supernatural throughout history-- has been known occasionally to diminish. Due to such fluctuations, human beings are sometimes accosted by phantoms and other curious sorts from the shadows...

He is near.

A letter from a prospective client brings paranormal investigator Edgar Sullivan face to face with a terror the likes of which he's never known.

The client, Henry Whitaker, seeks to cast out a troublesome resident spirit he has termed the "Pale Watcher." Each night, this frightening apparition manifests in his bedroom and watches him sleep till morning. Sullivan agrees to take on the case and travels to the Whitaker estate in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.

The details of this haunting are not so simple as they seem however.

Upon his arrival in the midst of a January snowstorm, Sullivan is informed by the head servant, Louis, that Henry Whitaker has fallen mysteriously ill. With his client hospitalized and a blizzard raging outside, he begins his investigation.

The winters of the Upper Peninsula are infamously brutal. Trapped by the snow, Sullivan is forced to confront the horrors that dwell in the Whitaker estate. Throughout the course of his investigation he comes upon strange clues; Mr. Whitaker's journal, a demonic sigil, a room full of antique mirrors. Can Sullivan piece together these clues and come up with a way to stop the haunting, or will he and Louis be devoured by the malevolence of the Pale Watcher?

3.0 out of 5 stars Old-Fashioned Horror. May 21, 2012
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Written in a manner much like that of the pre-WWII spooky stories, Pale Watcher recounts the efforts of the hero to repel a demonic being attempting to gain a foothold in our world. The central image of the story, the spectral presence slowly approaching night after night is very effective old-school horror. The story as a whole could have been better, I think. This story is too straightforward and easily resolved. Not enough of is made of the problem of being trapped in a snowbound house with a partially manifested demon.

3.0 out of 5 stars Solid read but nothing amazing May 22, 2012
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I downloaded this short story for free and I enjoyed reading it. It's not long and I cared enough about the characters to want to see how it all ended. Character development was pretty good for such a short read. I would characterize this more as a mystery novel and didn't think it was truly suspenseful in any way. All in all, not amazing, but I enjoyed it.
