About a week ago I received a note from a site reader who asked: "Could you make a list of paranomal cozies, cozies with witches, occult, vampires & such?"

I had already started a skeleton of a list which included some different supernatural themes, and thought: What better time to be making a theme with werewolves, vampires, "& such" than right before Halloween…. So here goes!

Ghosts:

Nancy Atherton: Aunt Dimity Mystery Series… Aunt Dimity simply insists on staying around after Lori inherits her Cotswold cottage…

Mignon F. Ballard: Augusta Goodnight Mystery Series… Augusta Goodnight is a guardian angel who helps solve mysteries… (I wasn't sure if I should put Augusta in this category but decided to go ahead and include her, she is a guardian angel…)

Helen Chappell: Sam & Hollis Mystery Series… Hollis (a reporter) solves mysteries with the help of her deceased husband Sam…

Elizabeth Eagan-Cox: Shannon Delaney Mystery Series… features a writer in San Diego with ghostly encounters…

Carolyn Hart (aka Carolyn G. Hart): Bailey Ruth Mystery Series… Bailey loved to sleuth before she joined Heaven's Department of Good Intentions, as a ghost… 

Alice Kimberly (aka Cleo Coyle): Haunted Bookshop Mystery Series… Penelope Thornton-McClure owns the bookstore that Jack Shepard inhabits… as a ghost…

Victoria Laurie: Ghost Hunter Mystery Series…  M.J. Holliday does just that! She hunts down ghosts…

Please feel free to either send a comment or a letter to the site if you know of any other mystery authors who would fit into this Ghost Theme. Thanks!
