Good morning everyone today for Two For Tuesday I thought I’d share two books which I think would make perfect Halloween reading. I had planned to read these before Halloween but life got in the way so I’m hoping to read them both soon as I think they’d be great Autumn reads too.
Today we’re planning to go to our local English Heritage place to hear some spooky tails then the kids want to have a Halloween disco later and I’m hoping to introduce them to my favourite Halloween film Hocus Pocus as they’re finally old enough.
What are your Halloween plans?
The Black Feathers by Rebecca Netley
Where ghosts tread, black feathers fall . . .
When Annie marries widower Edward Stonehouse and arrives at Guardbridge, his estate on the Yorkshire moors, she thinks she has finally put darkness behind her.
She is mistaken . . .
Edward’s sister, Iris, still lives in the family home. A taxidermist and medium, she urges Annie to watch out for black feathers – claiming that they mark the spot where a spirt has visited.
At first, Annie dismisses her warnings. But, before long, an eerie almost haunting feeling takes over her.
What exactly happened to Edward’s first wife? Why is Iris so disturbed?
And should Annie be watching for signs from the dead – or rather is she the one being watched?
SET ON THE YORKSHIRE MOORS IN THE 1800S, THE BLACK FEATHERS IS A GHOSTLY TALE OF MAGIC AND WICKEDNESS.
A Haunting In The Arctic by C. J. Cooke
Something has walked the floors of the Ormen for over a century.
Something that craves revenge…
1901. On board the Ormen, a whaling ship battling through the unforgiving North Sea, Nicky Duthie awakes. Attacked and dragged there against her will, it’s just her and the crew – and they’re all owed something only she can give them.
1973. Decades later, when the ship is found still drifting across the ocean, it’s deserted. Just one body is left on board, his face and feet mutilated, his cabin locked from the inside. Everyone else has vanished.
Now, as urban explorer Dominique travels into the near-permanent darkness of the northernmost tip of Iceland, to the final resting place of the Ormen’s wreck, she’s determined to uncover the ship’s secrets.
But she’s not alone. Something is here with her. And it’s seeking revenge…
