Hunterdon County, New Jersey (2 March 2025) – DAVIDSON HOUSE SPIRITS is a short story about a ghost skeptic whose refusal to believe in spirits is challenged.
JK Steffens is a member of the Tri-county Investigative Association for Research on Beings of Otherworldly Origins in Hunterdon County, New Jersey. And a popular ghost breaker. During the Association’s annual debunking of paranormal claims, Steffens is transported to a train station full of ghosts.
They are in danger of fading away forever unless the Stationmaster is found to board them onto the Elsewhere train.
Steffens is their last hope.
