Paul once lived in a 300 year old house in Massachusetts where the stairs creaked, the windows rattled, and sometimes noises crept up from the damp, dark, basement. Paul couldn’t be sure wether his house was haunted or if a raccoon was playing tricks on him. Either way his house was definitely the most peculiar on the street. Now living in New Jersey with his wife, two kids, and two dogs his house may not be as peculiar as it once was, but it doesn't stop him from writing about it. Or leaving the light on in the basement!
DEDICATION: To my sister. Whose old house is definitely haunted. Or maybe it’s mice. Probably haunted.
