This is my first book by Joe Hill, and it was highly recommended around Halloween time as being a great horror read. I’m not so sure we’re the bad guys in this story.” “There’s always been more to this than we figured at first. With his current girlfriend Marybeth, Jude sets out to uncover the mysteries surrounding Anna’s family and save his – and Marybeth’s – life. It turns out that it was no accident that Jude ended up with the ghost – the step-father of his ex-girlfriend, Anna. From there, the suit takes on a life of its own, and the ghost grows stronger along with it. He leaves his room to find the suit’s owner seated in his hallway. He quickly forgets about the purchase until he is roused in the night by a strange sound. When his assistant, Danny, receives an email from a second-tier auction website about a suit that comes with its very own ghost, Jude buys it without a second thought. Jude is in his fifties who goes through twenty-something girlfriends like water. Trigger warnings for repeated references to sexual assault and rape committed against children, repeated references to suicide and SI, violence toward animals, graphic injuries. TL DR: Scary story with lots of tension and a satisfying resolution. Synopsis: Judas Coyne, lead singer of a passe rock band, buys a ghost through an online auction and comes to find that the spirit has malicious intent.
