Synopsis

Are you troubled by visions of HELL?
Do you hear terrifying VOICES?
Do you live your life in FEAR,
Not knowing what evil DOOM awaits you?
A consultation with DR. SHITZ will set you right.
There’ll be peaceful NIGHTS
and bright DAYS ahead.
Make an appointment NOW, see
DR. SHITZ today!

Larry Shiltz, Doctor of Thaumaturgy, may not be the most famous man in London, Ontario, but he's about to be. That one little typo in the London Free Press has turned Shiltz to Shitz, and a name like that is hard to forget; suddenly, business is booming.

It's the Roaring Twenties; Prohibition, organized crime, and speakeasies are in, and everyone's doing the Charleston. Spiritualism, that antique relic of the Victorian age, is on the way out. But it's about to make a big comeback in a terrifying way when an ill-starred seance at Madame Gelda's unleashes a powerful and dangerous spirit.

Bradley Billups, newly departed, is out for revenge; but first, he's going to drive everyone he knows insane, starting with his business partner, Russell Bancroft, and Russell's girlfriend, Cheri, who just happens to be Bradley's sister. In this case, blood is thinner than a glass of cheap malt whisky.

But when the deranged poltergeist starts making their lives a living hell, Bradley's mother knows who to call: Dr. Shitz, master medium and speaker for the dead! Is the inimitable Shitz as good a thaumaturgist as he claims to be? His wife, Jane, sure hopes he is because she's planning on cashing in on all the publicity.

Dr. Shitz and the Wayward Ghost opens up a world of paranormal adventure populated by gangsters, hucksters, half-crazed scientists, and other colourful characters. Equal parts spine-tingling suspense, action-packed pyrotechnics, murder mystery, and zany, over-the-top humour, it may be unlike anything you've ever read before! A truly original Canadian historical supernatural comedy!
