    About this ebook

    This story was originally published in Penny Dread Tales Vol. III: In Darkness Clockwork Shine and in the comic book pages of Baron Von Saturday’s Tales From Beyond Issue #1.

    Five years after his wife’s death, scientist/inventor Joseph Caldwell has become obsessed with the afterlife with hopes of one day contacting the love of his life. Taking the opportunity to conduct a paranormal investigation at a mansion rumored to be haunted, Joseph tests his experimental devices, probing the other side of death, but in doing so, he discovers a deeper truth to the claims stated of The Atherton Manor.

    Christopher M. Salas

    Born and raised in Pueblo, CO., Christopher M. Salas developed a penchant for science fiction and the paranormal from his grandmother and uncle. As a child spending time with his grandmother, Juanita, included watching Doctor Who, Battlestar Galactica, and Buck Rogers. His uncle Augustine would tell tales at the dinner table, recounting scenes from movies he had watched, such as Dawn of the Dead or The Exorcist. This played a key role in Christopher’s predilection for horror and science fiction. Currently residing in Colorado Springs, CO., Christopher dabbles his storytelling in various genres of fiction–Science Fiction, Horror, Fantasy, Westerns, and Steampunk. While working on various literary works, Christopher also is a scriptwriter for Themis Comix.
