Synopsis

A photo shoot in a graveyard ends in a grave shooting . . .

Cookie Chanel—owner of the chic clothing store It’s Vintage Y’All in Sugar Creek, Georgia—has been hired to dress models for a fashion shoot. The spread will be featured in Fashion and Style magazine’s October issue—so the models are posing in a cemetery. As someone who can see and talk to ghosts, Cookie’s not spooked by the location. But she is surprised when a new ghost appears, decked out in 1920s couture. And she’s shocked when she hears a gunshot. Then a model runs toward her, saying the grumpy photographer has been edited out of the picture – for good. With help from her ghostly pals, Cookie must zoom in on the truth before she’s the next to strike a final pose . . .

Guest Post

Unlike the main character in my Haunted Vintage Mystery Series, I don’t have a ghost hanging around all day and night. Though I have visited my share of locations that are reported haunted. I thought I’d list a few of those places and the supposed paranormal activity that occurs.

  1. Whispers Estate is a bed and breakfast in Mitchell, Indiana. The house has been featured on paranormal TV shows and has quite a bit of documented paranormal events. On my overnight stay I experienced several unexplained events. It’s a spooky place!
  2. Jailer’s Inn- I stayed overnight in a cell! Thank goodness it wasn’t because I’d been arrested. Jailer’s Inn made the Travel Channel’s list of 10 Most Haunted Places. This former jail is now a bed and breakfast. Ghostly sounds and apparitions have been reported. Perhaps the inmates from bygone days are still serving out their sentences. One of the creepiest parts of the place is the courtyard outside. Hangings occurred there so it’s kind of eerie to try to enjoy your breakfast there on a sunny summer morning.
  3. Next door to the Jailer’s Inn is the Talbot Tavern. Reportedly many famous people from the past stayed at the tavern. Including Abraham Lincoln and Jesse James. It’s claimed that the bullet holes from when Jesse James shot at the wall are still there today. The southern cuisine like bourbon BBQ ribs and cheese grits are reason enough to visit. However, if you want the possibility of seeing a ghost with your dinner you might want to stop in for a meal.
  4. Perryville Battlefield. One the biggest Kentucky Civil War battles was fought there. This is one of my favorite places on earth. The landscape is beautiful and peaceful. A huge change from the days of the Civil War battle which once took place. Apparently, some of the soldiers are still hanging around. There are even accounts of hearing a ghost horse.
  5. Louis Cemetery *1 is the oldest cemetery in New Orleans. Many people have reported seeing ghosts wandering around the old tombs. I braved a tour of the place in the daytime. After dark might be more than I could handle.
  6. Morgan is located on Mobile Point at the end of Scenic Fort Morgan Peninsula. This Civil War fort is obviously full of history but is it full of ghosts too? With breathtaking views of the water and beaches to enjoy, it’s definitely worth the trip. You might run into a specter or two.
