Synopsis

CHILLS IN THE NIGHT: THE DEAD OF POINT PELEE
Lake Erie doesn't give a damn about clean sand or quiet family vacations once the south wind starts kicking up grey water against the limestone bluffs.
It is late September 1978. The roadside fruit stands are packing up, the tobacco kilns are smoking along the concessions, and forty miles of isolated rural shoreline are waking up with two centuries of violent frontier blood. When an active supernatural code red violently shuts down Point Pelee National Park, trapping terrified campers behind splintered barricades and turning the marsh boardwalks into open slaughter pens, the authorities are completely out of their depth.
Enter the Dalene family.
Eric and Corey aren't tourists waiting around for permission to defend their backyard. Operating out of their home on Langlois Avenue in Windsor, they are working-class monster hunters who calculate combat vectors like an executioner's chessboard and back it up with raw Detroit steel. Armed with heavy grade-seventy transport logging chains, builders' irons, and Donnie's V8-powered Dodge flatbed, the crew rolls straight into the fog-choked belly of the national park to take the ground back piece by piece.
Backed by their iron-fisted, fifty-five-year-old Norwegian grandmother Gunda, a local park ranger pushed past his breaking point, and Christopher's three-hundred-strong boneyard network of pioneer spirits, the family faces down a relentless gauntlet of open-water nightmares. From skinless ditch crawlers and bloated trench ghouls to ancient timber wendigos, an eight-foot lycanthrope, a five-headed mass grave abomination, and the legendary Ferryman of the Underworld himself, Lake Erie is throwing every drowned terror it owns at their bumper.
Along the way, the crew awakens an ancient boy wizard beneath a pioneer cairn, striking an unbreakable bargain that strips away centuries of dark sorcery to bring young David Michael Blackwood back into the mortal world as a living, breathing brother.
Raw, unvarnished, and packed with authentic street-level grit, The Dead of Point Pelee is a high-octane 1970s horror thriller for teenagers and older readers who like their action loud, their stakes lethal, and their monsters broken under cold iron.
Reader Advisory: Recommended for ages 12+. Contains intense supernatural horror, regional historical trauma, working-class action, and unfiltered authentic profanity. Read it with the porch light burning.
