The Funtime Show (Ellie Jordan, Ghost Trapper #19)

Come here, children, play with me,
I’m the friend in your TV…
The Calvert family’s new home used to belong to the recently deceased creator of a forgotten children’s program from the early days of television. The family’s younger kids are fascinated by the basement rooms, a chaotic wonderland of discarded stage sets, props, costumes, and puppets.
At first, the parents are glad to see the kids put down their screens and play creatively with the old theatrical elements, but their performances and their experiences grow more disturbing over time.
In this house, the reruns of a dark past never stop playing, and paranormal investigator Ellie Jordan must protect the family from a malevolent presence trying to draw them into the infernal show.

The beginning of “Spooky Month” seems the perfect time to finally review the latest Ellie Jordan, Ghost Trapper book, don’t you think? I think I say something like this in every Ellie Jordan review, but 19 books in and I’m still totally invested in this series.

Once again, Ellie and Stacey find themselves caught between homeowners who aren’t exactly on the same page – which needless to say, makes their job a lot harder. It also makes things more dangerous for the residents. One thing that neither Ellie or Stacey can walk away from is a child in danger and that’s definitely the case in the Calvert house.

I think that’s one of the many thing I love about this series, and especially Ellie. Ghost trapping isn’t just a job to them, they honestly want to help people. Of course there’s also a lot more to love and the spooky, creepy factor is at the top of the list. Have no fear, The Fun Time Show is at the top of that spooky, creepy list. Needless to say, I can’t wait for this series to continue and Miracle Mountain is next up, so stay tuned because it’s already been added to my TBR list. ❤
