Midnight Movie
Ellie Jordan: Ghost Trapper #14
by J.L. Bryan
Genre: Horror
MY REVIEW
The Ellie Jordan, Ghost Trapper series is one of my favorites. And so are the main characters Ellie and Stacey.
For Midnight Movie you have Ellie and Stacey called to help a young family who are being haunted. They just bought an old drive-in movie theater and had high hopes of making it a success. Alas, the ghosts of the past aren’t having none of it and things get dangerous.
I used to love going to the drive-in. Back in the day they had these boxy metal speakers you hung on your vehicle’s windows. There were swing sets to play on between movies. And the junk food. Yummy!
There’s nothing family friendly going on at this drive-in. I felt really bad for the family. It’s hard enough to sink your money into something that’s sat empty for a long time. And you can’t exactly start advertising the grand opening when there’s dangerous ghosts roaming around. I had faith that Ellie and Stacey would get to the bottom of it.
It was nice to be able to check in with some of the other characters that are featured throughout the series. Been wondering how they were doing. Anyone who has been involved with Ellie’s cases has been through some ordeals and some of those are lasting ones.
This was quite the complicated case for the ghost trapping team. I really enjoyed learning the reason behind the hauntings. Another killer read in a series I’ve come to love very much.

Synopsis
Long ago, dreams glowed on the screen under the night sky at the old drive-in theater. Once an attraction drawing families and teenagers from miles around, the theater has sat dark and silent for years, its former bright, carnival-like atmosphere a distant memory.
A young family brings the forgotten theater to life with a new, modern vision for its future, but strange troubles plague them. Something from the past haunts the theater and won’t leave them, or their occasional customers, alone. The family is living in the old theater manager’s apartment located inside the drive-in’s screen tower, so they enjoy no peace even when they go home after work late at night.
With disturbing supernatural activity threatening their small business and their family, they turn to paranormal investigator Ellie Jordan for help—but the mythic world of the movies has its own dark magic, and Ellie may not be prepared to face what awaits her when the sun goes down, the lights go out, and the show begins.
