About this ebook
HOUSES AREN’T THE ONLY THING THAT ARE HAUNTED. . . . This spring, architect of terror Michael W. Conrad (Wonder Woman, In Bloom) and 2024 Ringo Award–winner Dave Chisholm (Miles Davis and the Search for the Sound) begin a deep and disturbing excursion into 21st century–horror with a new kind of tale that will rebuild the four walls of the American ghost story from the foundation up . . . Thirteen years ago, Orin McCabe was a family man living a privileged life in the suburbs. Today, he’s condemned to death row for murdering his entire family in an unexpected fit of hammer-wielding brutality. In the aftermath of his heinous crime, it’s fallen to a trio of eclectic, but dedicated, ghost hunters—Jacob, the holy man; Holland, the skeptic; and their leader, Del, a true believer in the occult and worlds beyond—to surveil the abandoned McCabe home in search of proof for the existence of the undead . . . and whatever supernatural source may have possibly fueled McCabe’s inhuman massacre. But this ill-matched and uneasy squad of investigators is about to discover something much more terrifying than any ordinary spirit. . . . Something much more pernicious, much more contagious, that if not contained, could take full advantage of America’s unquenchable appetite for violence and deliver a plague of blood unto us all . . .
About the author
Dave Chisholm is a graphic novelist and musician currently living in Rochester, New York, where he received his doctorate in jazz trumpet from the Eastman School of Music in 2013. His expertise in music, as well as his formal inventiveness within the comics medium, has resulted in a string of critically acclaimed music-centric comics and graphic novels, including Spectrum (Mad Cave Studios), Miles Davis & the Search for the Sound, Enter the Blue, Chasin' the Bird: Charlie Parker in California, and the groundbreaking graphic novel + original soundtrack Instrumental (Z2 Comics). In collaboration with writer Michael Conrad on Plague House, he's bringing that same formal inventiveness to the horror genre. Chisholm also has a passion for education and teaches comics and music at the Hochstein School and the Rochester Institute of Technology. In his free time, Dave enjoys spending time with his family and his cats.
