Photo by Matt Terry. “]With a campus as steeped in tradition and history as McMaster's, it should come as no surprise that there are more than a few ghost stories set at the University. With the release of a new collection of spooky stories printed at Titles Bookstore's on-demand book printing machine, there is about to be one more.

Titles has once again teamed up with the paranormal history buffs at Haunted Hamilton to offer Haunted McMaster, a night of ghoulish ghost story readings and tours of a darkened campus, as well as a new horror anthology, Campus Chills, written specifically for the event. The book contains 13 pieces of fiction set on university campuses across Canada, including one by McMaster alumna Kimberly Foottit whose story is set at Mills Library, Titles and the Tank.

“Last year's Haunted McMaster event was so successful that we had to do it again,” said Mark Lefebvre, book operations manager at Titles and editor of Campus Chills. “Only this time we thought we'd step it up a bit and offer something unique that nobody else has.”

The event will feature readings by New York Times bestselling and award winning authors Kelley Armstrong, Sephera Giron, Michael Kelly and Edo van Belkom as well as Foottit and will include free “ghost walks” of the McMaster campus, led by Haunted Hamilton.

Haunted McMaster runs tonight from 7 p.m. to 11 p.m. at Titles Bookstore. Ghost walks run every half hour and leave from the Bookstore. For more information, contact Mark Lefebvre at ext. 20326, lefebvr@mcmaster.ca or see Facebook.
