Ghost Town of SoreAss Creek - Whiskey Gulch
Ten miles up the creek from SoreAss Creek sits a forgotten 1800s town — a saloon, a cat house, a church with bells that won’t shut up, an assay office that still smells like gold dust, and a cemetery that glows at night.
The catch? The town isn’t dead. Not entirely.
In this 14-book comedy-horror romp, Jo McGraw, Grandma Mavis, the Boone twins, Peach, Aggie, and the dogs (Booger, Maggie, the Goldens, the Yorkies, the Bits, and every puppy in between) stumble into a ghost town where the residents never left — they just got louder.
Expect chaos at every corner:
- A sheriff ghost writing tickets for “standing too sassy.”
- Deputies citing the dogs for “unlicensed barking.”
- Madam Ophelia running the saloon like she still owns Saturday night.
- Ghost pets (horses, goats, chickens) squaring off against Booger’s golden retriever army.
- Telegraphs tapping out tomorrow’s scandals before today’s gossip is cold.
- A phantom stagecoach that insists on giving rides… and dropping people off in the wrong century.
This isn’t spooky storytelling. It’s foul-mouthed, whiskey-soaked, laugh-so-hard-you-snort small-town chaos — with ghosts. Grandma outdrinks the dead, Peach feuds with phantom barmaids, the Boone twins argue with miners who’ve been underground for 120 years, and the dogs? They’re the only ones taking this seriously.
By the time the crew uncovers the gold mine’s final secret, readers will be knee-deep in glowing tombstones, drunken exorcisms, and saloon brawls that don’t stop just because somebody’s transparent.
Ghost Town of SoreAss Creek is paranormal slapstick for grown-ups — messy, loud, ridiculous, and impossible to quit.
