Here at the House of The Spirits, I am welcoming a different ghost each day to take over the blog. I will leave clues throughout the day and the first person to guess the ghost's identity in the comments wins a prize. You don't need a google or blogger profile to participate - anonymous users are welcome to guess but please just make sure I can contact you in case you are a winner.
In addition, everyone who leaves a comment before midnight on Saturday 11/14 will be entered in the Grand Prize drawing at the end of the Faire. The Grand Prize will be a $30 Amazon gift card, an ebook bundle of my books Polar Night, The Turnagain Arm, & The Ghosts of Aquinnah, and the Once Upon a Nightmare Collection ebook set by Cherie Reich.

Want to know about today's prize? Today my ghostly guest and I are giving away a $5 Amazon gift card, an ebook of Guardians of Telesma by River Fairchild, and an ebook of my story Polar Night.
Thanks to River for the prize donation!
*ETA: Cherie Reich guessed the ghost - Grady from The Shining. Congratulations, Cherie! And thanks to all for your comments and guesses. I have to say, of all the ghosts who are visiting me this week, Grady is the one who scares me the most. The Shining absolutely terrified me when I saw it! I will add the remaining clue and Grady's picture.
Now, please welcome today's ghost. It's safe to say this ghost isn't a friendly one.
3. After I killed my wife and daughters I shot myself in the head
4. I've always been at The Overlook
5. I encouraged Jack Torrance to correct his wife and son, like I corrected my family

ReplyDeleteThat is a lot of writers! =P
ReplyDeleteLOL Alex & Christine. New clue to narrow it down a little. :D
ReplyDeleteMore clues don't help me. I'm hopeless at this, but love the fun!
ReplyDeleteI think I know... ;-)
ReplyDeleteI don't know who you are and am very glad we are not related. Boo!
ReplyDeleteAnna from Elements of Writing
I'm going to need more clues to solve this riddle. :)
ReplyDeleteYikes! You'd think after all my study of killers this last month that I'd have an answer for that, but I don't. Nope.
ReplyDeleteI've read about this somewhere...
ReplyDeleteIt's definitely an author, but I have NO IDEA which one?!
Sounds like a very nasty so-and-so. Unfortunately, I can't come up with said so-and-so's name.
ReplyDeleteHa! With the first clue I thought of Jack from The Shining but he tried to kill his wife and son. I have no clue who this author is...is using Google cheating? :p

ReplyDeleteYikes I don't know this one either.
ReplyDeleteSounds charming. Unfortunately I have no idea!
ReplyDeleteIs this ghost in The Shining by Stephen King?
ReplyDeleteTyrean, he is!
ReplyDeleteJust added a new clue. :)
Hmm, I'd guess the shining guy but I don't think he was a ghost. Awesome game, Julie!
ReplyDeleteHi Julie - I have no idea ... especially as I haven't seen the Shining - but your ghost has everyone bamboozled ... for that congratulations .. cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteOoo, I know now. It's Delbert Grady from Stephen King's The Shining!
ReplyDeleteYou're right, Cherie!! Will send your prizes ASAP. :)
ReplyDeleteNo idea. That's one gruesome character, though!
ReplyDeleteI'm too late, but I also felt it was a ghost from The Shining!!!
ReplyDeleteI loved the shining, and still wouldn't have guessed correctly. Little details like that I forget almost as soon as I learn them. LOL He's a horrid person/ghost wouldn't give him space in my brain. Silly me!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Cherie!
I have racked my brain most of the day, and I thought I was pretty close, only to find out I was wrong. No guess today, but I'm still working on it, and if I come up with the right answer, i will let you know.
ReplyDeleteWow, fun and clever, I like it. Congrats to Cherie! :)
ReplyDeleteI seem to be rather good at these ghosties. :-D
