Volume 3 - 1st printing. "Haunted!"

Written by Charlaine Harris and Christopher Golden. Art and cover by Geraldo Borges.

They call her the Ghost of Dunhill Cemetery, but most people think "the Cemetery Girl" is just a story. In some ways, that's true. Her chosen name is Calexa Rose Dunhill, but she doesn't know her real name. When she first arrived here, all she knew was that someone had tried to murder her, dumped her body, and left her for dead. Calexa has been hiding out, afraid to seek out her true identity in fear that her would-be murderer would find her and finish the job. And someone is searching for her...a man named Salazar, who holds the key that will unlock the secrets of Calexa's past.

Calexa has new secrets as well-including the fact that she was murdered...she did die, if only for a moment. And in that moment, something changed inside her. Now, if someone dies near her, their spirit is drawn to Calexa, drawn into her. It has happened twice before, but now-as her worst fears come true and there are killers on her trail-the third ghost to take up residence in Calexa's soul will change everything and bring the Cemetery Girl trilogy to its shocking conclusion!

Story and art by Lisa Hanawalt.

An homage to and lampoon of westerns, Coyote Doggirl is a self-aware, playful subversion of tropes, from the producer/production designer of the hit series Bojack Horseman. Coyote is a dreamer and a drama queen, brazen and brave, faithful yet fiercely independent. Together with her trusty steed Red, there's not much that's too big for her to bite off, chew up, and spit out right into your face, if you deserve it. But when Coyote and Red find themselves on the run from a trio of vengeful bad dogs, get clobbered by arrows, and are tragically separated, our protagonist is left fighting for her life, and longing for her displaced best friend.

Stories and art by Einar Baldvin.

"The rotting carcass of once proud Gyldenbrae sleeps. Best let it lie. Its hideous truth holds nothing but despair." The Crawling King is a fully illustrated dark fantasy novel by award-winning independent animator Einar Baldvin. The book comes with a cloth, foil stamped hardcover, fully drawn, inked, and painted illustrations, and handwritten text. The novel is a collection of stories from the doomed City of Gyldenbrae and the surrounding countryside. Pre-sented in the form of legends, fables, manuscripts, first-hand accounts and historical documents, The Crawling King invites readers to delve into the dark ruins of a world consumed by magic.

Equal parts art book and anthology in the spirit of "Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark," Baldvin's vision of Gyldenbrae feels like Lovecraft adapted for children.
