“A Gothic-punk graveyard tale about what haunts history and what haunts the human soul. An addicting read that draws you into its descent from the first page.”—Chuck Wendig, New York Times best-selling author of The Book of AccidentsOne of Vulture's Best Horror Novels of 2022, this terrifying supernatural page-turner will make you think twice about opening doors to the unknown.Erin hasn’t been able to set a single boundary with her charismatic but reckless college ex-boyfriend, Silas. When he asks her to bail him out of rehab—again—she knows she needs to cut him off. But days after he gets out, Silas turns up dead of an overdose in their hometown of Richmond, Virginia, and Erin’s world falls apart. Then a friend tells her about Ghost, a new drug that allows users to see the dead. Wanna get haunted? he asks. Grieving and desperate for closure with Silas, Erin agrees to a pill-popping “séance.” But the drug has unfathomable side effects—and once you take it, you can never go back.

"Even though there was adult language, it just seemed a bit childlike. Almost like I was reading a Goosebumps book. But, I did love Goosebumps when I was younger, so the book had a good creepiness feeling."

"Would recommend if you are into #supernatural & #horror. Trigger warning for Substance Abuse."

"The detail the author does is phenomenal. It’s creepy and it draws you in. You feel the emotions through the pages. It’s easy to follow and picture the scenes happening. "

"I did spend most of the book angry at Erin who just made bad decision after bad decision knowingly, but Chapman's creativity in concept cannot be denied."

"⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4/5 Stars)
Clay McLeod Chapman’s horror novel, Ghost Eaters, had me on the brink of DNFing. I was convinced that IF I managed complete it, the highest rating remotely possible would be 3 stars. Needless to say, I was wrong. If you pick this book up, which I recommend you do, push through parts 1 & 2. Once you hit part 3 it really picks up. Parts 4 & 5 had me barreling through unable to put the book down. I think this book is truly a diamond in the rough. Please check this one out. You won't be sorry.
