Conrad and artist Dave Chisholm invited readers into the haunted halls of the McCabe home in the first issue of their chilling new comic book series Plague House, and if you're as excited as I am to see what happens next to the ghost-hunting trio of Del, Holland, and Jacob, then you'll be thrilled to check out our exclusive preview of Plague House #2 before it haunts shelves on May 7th via Oni Press!

You can read our exclusive excerpt from Plague House #2 below, and in case you missed it, read our recent Q&A with Michael and Dave for more insights into Plague House!

PLAGUE HOUSE #2 (OF 4)

W) Michael W. Conrad A) Dave Chisholm

The tense and turbulent investigation of America’s 21st century ghosts uncovers its next disturbing clue, care of acclaimed writer Michael W. Conrad (Wonder Woman, In Bloom) and Ringo Award–winning illustrator Dave Chisholm (Miles Davis and the Search for Sound)!

After ghost hunters Del, Holland, and Jacob visited the house where Orin McCabe murdered his family, the site is seemingly cleansed and the group is now in demand for other haunts. As the gang gets bigger and bigger, odd things are happening: Orin and others related to the hauntings are turning up dead. As Del struggles with his newfound celebrity and the consequences of the exorcisms, will he be able to keep the group and his innocence?
