20th Century Ghosts

A special trade paperback deluxe collector's edition featuring sprayed edges and a new Afterword by the author celebrating the 20th anniversary of Joe Hill's unforgettable story collection.

Imogene is young and beautiful. She kisses like a movie star and knows everything about every film ever made. She's also dead and waiting in the Rosebud Theater for Alec Sheldon one afternoon in 1945. . . . Arthur Roth is a lonely kid with big dreams and a gift for attracting abuse. Look inside the world of his sheltered twelve-year-old imagination: a world of sea monkeys, trollops, coffin races, and an imaginary best friend named OK. . . . In the lonely world of the ghost story, the past is closer than you think. . . .

The breakout collection by the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Fireman and Strange Weather—including the story that inspired the film The Black Phone.
