Doing this on the fly today, just back from the Ohio Academy of Science: Science Fair (as a judge) and zooming off to a friend’s play.
I’m sticking with These Haunted Hills This takes place directly after Brendan got a little uptight about being fan boyed over and Joshua assured him there would be no overt fanboying.
Tension relaxed in Brendan’s bearded jaw. “Thanks. I would love to go on a ghost hunt if you can arrange that.”
“Definitely. We can take you to a couple of places, the Moonville tunnel and of course the Crooked Pine hotel because that’s where we’ll be concentrating our efforts. I think it’s perfect for what you’re describing as the plot of your novel.”
“Excellent. So tell me more about Ash Cave.”
And here is inside the Moonville tunnel, some ‘street art’ of one of the ghosts that supposedly haunts the tunnel (she was killed by the train that ran thru the tunnel. I took this one on my own ghost hunt here. BTW, the hotel which will end up the haunted focus of the story, however, doesn’t exist in the real world).

To be fair, Moonville is a real place. And I think I stole Crooked Pine from one of the local cabin rental places.

I love that you’re weaving local lore into the story. (I might have to road trip to Ohio this summer. LOL)

Thanks. Hocking HIlls is a lovely place and about 80 miles south of it is the Mothman in Pleasant Point WV.

Thanks. In a way this is helping me too. I’ve not enjoyed living here but it’s now obvious I’ll be here probably til retirement so I’m half writing this to help me learn to love where I am.
