Haunted in Asheville

By P.K. Mars

In the quiet suburbs of Asheville, North Carolina, Percy Dollard lives a life defined by routine, isolation, and a lingering fear he has never learned to outrun. Haunted-literally and figuratively-Percy spends his days caring for his aging mother, walking on eggshells around restless spirits, and waging a silent battle against ghosts no one else can see.

For seventeen years, Kay, the tormented woman who hangs from the rafters of his basement, has terrorized him with visions that grow darker by the day. But when a second ghost appears-gentle, earthbound, and strangely comforting-Percy begins to wonder whether he is trapped in a haunting... or wrapped in a message he is meant to unravel.

As supernatural forces intensify, and a sinister handyman from town sparks horrifying visions of his own, Percy is dragged into a chilling maze of psychic impressions, buried memories, and otherworldly warnings. The spirits are trying to tell him something. And what they reveal could destroy the last fragile threads of normalcy holding his life together.

A southern gothic blend of supernatural suspense, psychological tension, and deeply human vulnerability, Haunted in Asheville is an atmospheric, slow-burning horror novel about trauma, unseen forces, and the ghosts-both real and emotional-that refuse to stay buried.

Perfect for fans of Shirley Jackson, Simone St. James, Thomas Olde Heuvelt, and atmospheric paranormal thrillers with richly drawn characters and chilling twists.
