Booklist - 02/01/2024 The Ghostly Graphics series (4 titles) provides spooky tales based on real-life incidents, touching on the history that inspired the titular ghouls and haunts. Each work shares the now well-known tales and the accounts that keep them alive through a graphic-novel format that uses invented, speech-balloon dialogue; spare, narrative text boxes; and illustrations that favor action and drama. Even so, a healthy amount of skepticism is maintained, with each noting the facts that likely led to the story’s genesis. In The Deadly Bell Witch Ghost, a tour guide takes modern folks around Bell Farm, which is said to have been haunted by a violent specter. Each title concludes with bonus historical facts and standard back matter. A series sure to pleasantly creep out and inform readers. - Copyright 2024 Booklist.
