Book Two in Jazan Wild's Funhouse Of Horrors Series.
The doors of Jazan Wild's Funhouse of Horrors are open again. This ongoing collection of stories provides another ghostly tale of the living-impaired through the eyes of the lead character, horror writer Jacob 'Jake' Stone. Where there's a haunted house, there's someone's story.
Stone enters a small New Mexico town to investigate the legend of the haunted Murphy place. He finds an escort to the house on the edge of town from the local sheriff, and before you know it, both are consumed by the horrors that live inside. Are you prepared for a dark tale of treachery and loss? Enter, if you dare!

Jazan Wild is a bestselling author and musician whose Carnival of Souls, Dandy and Funhouse Of Horrors series are international hits that have been downloaded millions of times around the globe, even gracing Entertainment Weekly's Must List!
This follows on a few years after the first in the series and finds Jacob embracing his situation and using his abilities to release the spirits that haunt him including those of the Murphy family who were killed some years ago and have not been able to rest since. Jacob tells their story and gives them the opportunity for revenge, in the most dramatic fashion.
This Funhouse of Horrors is a continuation of the previous book, but 20 some years later as the kid is now an adult. He seems to be an author who writes books about haunted locations he visits and finds out what the ghosts need and helps set them free. This book was better written than the previous one and the artistry was the same. Overall I liked this comic.
However it does have DRM on Amazon, so I have to subtract a point for the DRM. However I have found that it is available on Google Play without DRM.
The premise sounds awesome- a ghost whisperer traveling from town to town unearthing old legends and figuring out if they’re true or not. But then with this specific issue, the story doesn’t make sense and gets confusing. The plot has holes and doesn’t connect in the end, so hopefully the next issue in the series is a little bit more detailed and cohesive and makes sense.
