Professor Charlatan Bardot’s Travel Anthology to the Most (Fictional) Haunted Buildings in the Weird, Wild World

–>I received a free copy of this in exchange for an honest review.
The fictional paranormal investigator Charlatan Bardot shows us ghost stories collected from all over the world together with his thoughts on each tale, pictures, and even the coordinates of the haunted places. It's quite an interesting idea and the collection is carried by this concept pretty well.

There were a lot of stories and honestly it felt like too many. The quick flash fiction pieces somewhat lost their bite because if you know these local stories are fictional it just ends up being a neat little idea that goes nowhere. Maybe it's just me. I don't know if it was just to fill out the collection but I would have preferred fewer but longer stories for each of the main locations.

Which there were many of as this is a travel catalog of haunted places. We go all around the world and the stories get to present many different ideas, cultures, and history which was quite fun and gives so much variety. Every story is about ghosts, yes, but you never know what's coming next and I always enjoy that in collections.

I was offered this as an ebook but, I'm sure it's much more pleasurable to read in physical format due to the many pictures. Even so, I could tell how well put together it was. It's definitely worth a try for its unique concept.
