Originally published as a Limited Edition in the UK with a tiny print run, this brand new signed special edition of Walking With Ghosts features revised text and more than 60 illustrations by Glenn Chadbourne. This special Deluxe Lettered Edition was published for Brian James Freeman’s Patreon supporters on the Lettered Edition Rewards level and above in October 2021.
About the Book:
Brian James Freeman’s first full-length collection features twenty-nine stories full of both real and supernatural terrors. There are people seeking answers to deeply troubling questions, who are haunted by horrors they believe are out of their control… but sometimes the source of their greatest fears is closer to home than they ever imagined.
As William Peter Blatty notes in his introduction, “Freeman writes like someone who has seen the darkness lurking within the human heart and is compelled to shine a light on our deepest fears. His writing will leave you both chilled and deeply moved.”

This signed special edition hardcover was limited to 26 signed and lettered copies.
