![]() Joe Hill’s The Heart-Shaped Box (2007) being a horror novel, the ghost turns out to be real. Jude’s extensive collection of “the grotesque and the bizarre,” much of it sent by his fans, ranges from the confession of a burned witch and a cookbook for cannibals to Aleister Crowley’s childhood chessboard and a “diseased” snuff film, but lacks a ghost, so he can’t resist buying one-without really believing in it. ![]() Specifically, he buys the vintage “Sunday suit” the seller says her “spiritualist” stepfather Craddock James McDermott wanted to be buried in but wasn’t, leading him to haunt his bedroom. ![]() Fifty-four-year-old dark rock star Judas “Jude” Coyne (real name Justin Cowzynski) hasn’t toured in three years and is on his umpteenth young Goth girlfriend he nicknames after their home states (the current one being a 23-year-old he calls Georgia) when he buys a ghost from a private online auction. ![]()
