"Recipient of the Bram Stoker Award for Lifetime Achievement, a pioneer of the African horror literary genre, and hailed as the ‘Queen of African Horror,’ Nuzo Onoh offers her most fantastical tale yet."
A new supernatural story of "rebirth, betrayal, vengeance, occult magic, mysterious invocations, and creepy rituals," Nuzo Onoh's The Fake Ghost will be available this August from Dead Sky Publishing, and we're thrilled to exclusively reveal the book's haunting cover that was painted by Shane Pierce.
"The Fake Ghost is a dark farce and a supernatural thriller of rebirth, betrayal, vengeance, occultic magic, mysterious invocations and creepy rituals. Set both in Africa and the USA, it follows the whacky and sinister travails of a powerful American leader that is reborn as a black child in a tiny African hut. With the help of the medicine-man, he must find a way to free his trapped soul and return to the United States to prevent a dastardly plot against him. But first, he must enter a diabolical blood pact, which might return to haunt him with devastating consequences.
Nuzo Onoh is an award-winning Nigerian-British writer of Igbo descent. She is a pioneer of the African horror literary genre. Hailed as the “Queen of African Horror," Nuzo’s writing showcases both the beautiful and horrific in the African culture within fictitious narratives.
