A irresistible and bittersweet coming-of-age story in the vein of Stranger Things and Stand by Me about a group of misfit kids who spend an unforgettable summer investigating local ghost stories and urban legends

"A celebration of the secret lives of children, both their wonders and their horrors . . . Immensely enjoyable, piercingly clever, and satisfyingly soulful." (Jason Heller, NPR)

Growing up in 1980s Niagara Falls - a seedy but magical, slightly haunted place - Jake Baker spends most of his time with his uncle Calvin, a kind but eccentric enthusiast of occult artifacts and conspiracy theories. The summer Jake turns 12, he befriends a pair of siblings new to town, and so Calvin decides to initiate them all into the "Saturday Night Ghost Club." But as the summer goes on, what begins as a seemingly light-hearted project may ultimately uncover more than any of its members had imagined.

With the alternating warmth and sadness of the best coming-of-age stories, The Saturday Night Ghost Club is a note-perfect novel that poignantly examines the haunting mutability of memory and storytelling, as well as the experiences that form the people we become, and establishes Craig Davidson as a remarkable literary talent.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Davidson makes beautifully clear how the ghoulish tales we feared when we were young can't compare to the blood-bathed teeth we eventually encounter as adults. The Saturday Night Ghost Club is a tale for those who like their Stranger Things spiked, Stand by Me charred, and who are battered enough yet still brave enough to revisit that moment when made-up horrors finally come to root in a world beyond invention. A novel that both stabs and breaks your heart." (Mark Z. Danielewski, best-selling author of House of Leaves)

"The Saturday Night Ghost Club is not only creepy and chills-down-your-spine fun, it's also incredibly poignant and heartwarming. This is a tender coming-of-age story that isn't afraid to face the darkness in the world or meditate on the power of memory and the mysteries of the human brain. Craig Davidson is such a nimble storyteller and his latest novel is proof of his remarkable gift." (Edan Lepucki, New York Times best-selling author of California and Woman No. 17)

“A well-crafted, whimsical coming-of-age tale.... Davidson creates a quirky landscape and colorful characters, resulting in a novel that will entertain readers while providing a nice dose of nostalgia.” (Publishers Weekly)

At a glance, the story seems to be the telling of the remembrances of a boy’s childhood antics with friends and a kooky uncle intermixed with his present day experiences, but the story is much more than that. Details matter so listen.

Worth the ending

There’s something about the way this story was told that’s going to forever keep it atop my favorite ghost stories. It was the storytelling, the narrator, the story itself, the characters, the nonlinear timeline of sorts, but most importantly…it’s the nostalgia it invokes…?!

There’s a crazy uncle that does a lot of questionable things; reminded me of both the crazy professor from Back to the Future and one of my uncles. Good times. There are visits with dead people that are more endearing than creepy. And, there’s a story within a story that just brings it all together.

This is not a book that I would have picked out except that I came across it in one of the Audible book sales; and combing through the pages of books from all kinds of random genres, this one was sitting there. The title got me, the book cover art grabbed me, but that nostalgia….it crept in and hasn’t let go.

This is a new kind of ghost story. Read it. Let it sit with you.

I saw alot of negative reviews for this book. If you're looking for something in the horror genre with a bite to it this one isn't for you. However if you're constantly looking for a story that will take you back to your youth, a story that will leave an impression on you the way that The Goonies, Monster Squad or Stand By Me did the first time you saw them as a kid then I encourage you to give Saturday Night Ghost Club a shot. While I wasnt super impressed with the narration and can understand why some found it to be boring and monotone I thought it came off as relaxing and easy to listen to. It was heartfelt and nostalgic with a spooky coming of age theme.

Definitely recommend giving it a listen!

I was in the mood for something spooky, adventurous and mysterious and it delivered. Could have had a little more content but the story was solid none the less. Good.


Good mystery novel

I chose this book expecting it to be a horror story, and what I got was a wonderful, whimsical ghost tale, but with a somewhat bittersweet and lovely ending. A tale of the bonds of friendship and of family…even the weird Uncle. Great presentation. Sometimes I felt like the narrator sounded like John Malkovich and made me like the story even more!

Beautiful Coming of Age Ghost Story

Spooky and Sad, but well written. I can see myself reading this when I'm not in a run for a readathon.

Spooky and Sad

This was not what I was expecting. The storyline was more of a coming of age story rather than a ghost story book. I really enjoyed this book. If I could give it more than 5 stars I would. Craig Davidson has gained a new fan. I read this entire book in a day, I had to keep going back to it. Now I have told anyone who will listen to me about it. I recommend listening to it!

WOW

This turned out to be a pleasent story with some mild intensity and a bit of a sad twist. Not especially scary if you're looking for that sort of thing, but more of a coming-of-age book with some beautiful language peppered throughout. I'd say it's worth spending a credit, regardless of how short it really is.

Charming, subdued

Craig, or Nick cutter, has always been someone I've enjoyed reading. This book surprised me, a heartfelt coming of age, part tragedy part horror. This isn't the troop or little heaven; a different flavour but just as good. Corey Brill is the man.

very much enjoyed

This is a story of a year in the life of a boy of 12 and his eccentric uncle. It reminds me of my youth growing up in the 80s. Freerange parenting abounds and the group get up to some mischief. The ending was excellent and I highly recommend this.

A Wonderful Story
