You want strange? You got it. Wicked Strange, as they say in New England. Imagine looking out your window in Nashua, New Hampshire and seeing an other-worldly hearse cruising up and down the street in search of a soul. Heard about Plantation 13, the rural Maine backwater, where the males birth the babies through their eye sockets? Hey, don't pet that infected dog! It's been in that concrete wall over three decades. And what's up with those giant moths trapped in the tower of the Pemaquid Point Lighthouse? Be sure to cross the road when you go past the old witchy woman's place along the White River in Bethel, Vermont or you may run into the spirit-stealers. Spend a day with Ruger, the new caretaker apprentice at the old felons' bone yard in Augusta, Maine. You say you need your fix of New England weirdness? Well, you're guaranteed to find it here under the covers--the front and back covers--of Bram Stoker Award winner Steve Burt's latest collection: Wicked Strange. Excerpted from Bram Stoker Award-winning author Steve Burt's four Stories to Chill the Heart collections: Odd Lot, Even Odder, Oddest Yet, and Wicked Odd.

2015 New England Book Festival Award. Steve Burt's three Devaney & Hoag Vermont ghost-buster mystery stories, previously published in three different books, are collected here in one large-print volume. "The Witness Tree," "The French Acre," and "The Chambers Crypt" are all set in Norwich, Vermont. Hoag is a Valley News reporter who is frequently called upon to investigate unusual (paranormal) stories; Devaney is his retired-teacher father-in-law who tags along to snap pictures. Dr. Burt is the author of many books with New England settings, including the Bram Stoker Award-winning Stories to Chill the Heart series (Odd Lot, Even Odder, Oddest Yet, and Wicked Odd), the FreeKs paranormal teen detectives series (FreeK Camp, FreeK Show, and FreeK Week, winner of the Florida Book Festival Grand Prize and the New England Book Festival Award). His inspirational New England holiday collection, A Christmas Dozen, was a national bestseller.
