The Poor and the Haunted
by Dustin McKissen
As a child Jimmy Lansford and his sister Kelly suffered crushing poverty, their father’s unexplained and frightening suicide, and their mother’s constant abuse and cruelty. Having grown to be a successful adult, Jimmy must contend with the sudden re-emergence of memories from his childhood in Oklahoma and unexplainable events
occurring inside his own home. Is it
more than memories that haunt Jimmy?
Did his parents suffer from mental illness
and addiction, or were they possessed by
something even worse—and has that
presence arrived to take Jimmy?
The first horror novel from acclaimed
author and journalist Dustin McKissen
explores the nature of hauntings, the
ghosts from our past that haunt our
present, and the unbreakable bond
between siblings who learn early on
they can only rely on each other.
