Proceed with caution. A scientist and sister hopes to transform gummy bears into embryos. A sleepwalking father poses a dangerous threat to his young son. Ghosts Caught on Film is a collection of stories both haunting and funny, full of warmth, anxiety, love, and foreboding. Winner of the Bridge Eight Press Fiction Prize, Barrett Bowlin's debut is unafraid to make you laugh while looking over your shoulder or bring you to tears while turning the page.

I lost track of how many times I literally laughed out loud and gasped. I wrote, "Oh fuck!" in the margins nine times. I literally screamed three times (thanks to the endings of "You Must Give of Yourself," "Embryology," and "The Echoless").
I was also captivated by the first and last sentence of every singe story. I won't spoil any of them, because holy hell, they are a TREAT. The weirdness and terror is tempered with tenderness, and each character feels precious even in all their ugliness and banality.
I'll be reading, studying, and gushing over this one over and over again for sure! ( )
