J. Elliott to Read at Downtown Library

October 28, 2018, 2:30 pm - 3:30 pm

Just in time for Halloween, author J. Elliott will read from and discuss her latest book of paranormal stories.

Tales From Kensington & Other Macabre & Unsettling Offerings is a collection of spooky stories, sometimes amusing, assuredly disquieting. Join a group of college kids telling ghost stories on Halloween night. Follow a famous photographer to an NPR-like radio interview. Why won’t he answer the big question: Why did he give up photography? A long-vacant home in a historic district is finally purchased. The owners plan to open a candy store. How sweet. What could be better?  Nurses in a hospital notice some unusual qualities about some of the patients—haunted people, haunted houses.

Elliott is an artist and author living in Alachua, Florida. Tales From Kensington is her second collection of ghost stories, following Ghost Lite. She is working on a humorous women’s fiction series, the “Haint Blue, Adventures Along the Way,” books set in High Springs, Florida.

The author notes that Tales From Kensington is adult fiction and suggests the appropriate age is 17+.
