1.2 HRS, Short Story, Ghosts, Death, Dark History ©2018 Bibiana Krall (P)2020 Bibiana Krall
"I’m a fan of great ghost stories. You know, those that make you think and leave you with a sense of unease. It’s more than being scared or the mere shock value of gore and violence. It’s when the writer can get into your head and make you look over your shoulder or keep a light on the rest of the night. Bibiana Krall has done just that with her most recent short story, The Soul Keeper"
Travel to the year 1967, when San Francisco became the place for young people to explore their sexuality, find freedom and transcend. What Willow never expected was to experience a ghostly presence that haunted her dreams and terrorized her waking hours. Will she discover what the stranger wants from her before it's too late? Over 18 + recommendation due to mature content concerning references to drug use and its culture.
