Synopsis

In this witty anthology-in the double sense, because there are more ghosts here than at a condo meeting in the dark-L. U. Dragonian guides the reader through a catalog that is absolutely not recommended by the Ministry of Health: inconvenient possessions, demons that appear without warning, rituals that only worked for those who sell emergency fire extinguishers, and dubious cults where nobody really knows if the sacrifice is literal or just metaphorical (and everyone is afraid to ask).

With the subtlety of an exorcist armed with holy water in a 1.5-liter bottle, and the humor expected from someone who has completely lost patience with unprofessional supernatural entities, this book reveals everything that the forces of evil preferred to keep secret-and everything that the Church, science, and common sense try to explain, but without much success, from Antiquity to the cell phone that insists on texting itself.

Things of the Devil is a hilarious and (almost) educational journey into the dark folklore of humanity, for those who like to laugh, be scared, and wonder why demons never appear in places with good parking. A collection of chronicles that proves that, even when the Devil interferes, there's always room for a laugh.

À propos de l?auteur

Independent writer with a fascination for the eerie, the unexplained, and the downright criminal. I dig into haunted histories, real-life mysteries, and chilling crimes to bring readers stories that keep them up at night - for all the right (or wrong) reasons. When I'm not chasing ghosts or facts, I'm probably arguing with my coffee mug or suspecting my cat of knowing too much.
