Parapsychologist
Paranormal creatures go to therapy, too.
Somewhere between the couch and the file cabinet marked Ultimate Evil, Dr. Ron Richards is holding it together. Mostly.
His patients are werewolves, poltergeists, a Loch Ness Monster with body dysmorphia, and a blob in a jar who spirals into existential dread the moment you forget to screw the lid on. His office is attached to his house, which means his teenage daughter can storm in mid-session to announce she's joined a cult, again.
Parapsychologist is a workplace comedy about the impossible job of listening to monsters, to the people you love, to the quiet voice telling you you're not enough. It's warm, weird, and unafraid.
Horror's iconic creatures, treated with the dignity of a clinician who genuinely wants them to feel better, even when he can't quite manage the same for himself. From Mark Schey (Black Box Chronicles, A1 Deadline) and HUGO award-nominated Taki Soma (Sleeping While Standing, Alienated), beautifully illustrated by Cat Farris (The Ghoul Next Door).
