These were super fun stories to read through. Each one was short, with an adjoining image to correlate to the story.
Loved these little ghost stories. Easy and fun.

I thought this was a well written book of spooky tales from Canada. Bee Stanton did an excellent job with putting the material together and painting a picture with the writing. I can't wait for more from this author. I highly recommend this book to others who love a book of haunted tales to keep you awake at night.

Thank you Net Galley ARC, Nimbus Publishing, and Bee Stanton

I read this during winter and it was perfect.

The long dark nights and and Atlantic ghosts set the mood and atmosphere. I really enjoyed the stories and the authors narrative, some bits more than others but thats ok. If you are looking for an immersive book to transport you somewhere eerie and cold i highly recommend this one for winter.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for an E-ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.

A fabulous product, for those in the market for it. This tells us of ghosts we've probably never encountered in many or any anthologies before, for they pepper the coastal areas of Canada – PEI, Labrador and Newfoundland, and so on. All are succinctly told on one page, dressed without right justification as if knocked up on an old typewriter. Accompanying each one is a full-page illustration showing a superlative hand at the quick, cameo-styled sketch. A lot are little vignette-styled tondos, but the assured line is really welcoming, and the feel of a vintage art matches the text perfectly.

The ghosts have a great variety too, ranging from stranded trains to ships on fire, to lighthousekeepers, and so on. They also have a wild creature of the woods amongst them, and nasty fairies, but they are certainly not all evil – a friendly brewer, a playful child, a bishop's wife and more show ghosts can be more domestic, more civil and more welcome; an urban werewolf less so. Most remarkable surely is one of the rare maritime legends, of a phantom lifeboat oarsman, coming aboard to propel his colleagues to the rescue, and diving back off when the job is done.

This isn't a comprehensive guide to the region, being a much more personal affair, but has just as much character as you could wish. It doesn't work on giving the chills, but it just nudges you to the views of the afterlife in that corner of the world. For anyone living or visiting there this is an uncanny blend of gift book and essential purchase; for anyone with a collection of ghost legends and/or art books this is definitely worth seeking out.

A very quick read. The art work is phenomenal. I enjoyed the spooky feel of the pen drawings that went along perfectly with each passage.

It was really, very short. The ghost stories were interesting and the ink drawings were lovely. I, however, prefer a little more meat to stories. It simply wasn't really what I expected. I enjoyed it anyway, but it is so super short.

An informational and well-selected booklet that is beautifully illustrated to boot. I can see this doing very well in coastal town bookshops. The stories are short and I've not heard the majority of them before.

This is one of my favorite books of the year! The illustrations are beautiful and the stories are captivating. If you enjoy ghost stories,then this is one book I would highly recommend! Special Thank You to Bee Stanton, Nimbus Publishing and NetGalley for allowing me to read a complimentary copy in exchange for an honest review.

This is great because it's a ghost tour, and every entry feels like it could be real. The entries are short and the drawings fit the mood perfectly. I felt like ghosts could be real while I was following along the coast experiencing each creepy encounter.
Thanks to NetGalley for letting me read this

This was a fantastic read and came just in time for spooky season! I love ghost stories and really liked that the stories took place on the Atlantic cost of Canada. The artwork is gorgeous and compliments each story well. I found myself looking up most of the stories mentioned in the book. This book is perfect for children and adults.

This is a perfect book for spooky season or anyone looking for some good ghost stories! I felt like I was on a ghost tour in Nova Scotia or Prince Edward Island. The sketches were well-done and captured each of the ghostly legends the author chose to include. Each story is only a page long, I only wished that they could’ve included more! I hope the author continues this series!

This is a delightful collection of short ghost stories, each no longer than a page. Despite the spooky theme, the stories are more charming than scary, making it a perfect read for both kids and adults.

What truly sets this book apart are the stunning illustrations that accompany each tale. The artwork beautifully captures the essence of each story, adding a visual to the reading.

I highly recommend “Atlantic Ghosts” to anyone who enjoys ghost stories. It’s a beautifully crafted book that offers a cozy, haunting experience without being over the top scary.

4.5 stars

This is a beautifully rendered book of haunted tales from the Atlantic coast of Canada. Each tale has a delicate ink sketch that the author drew (I believe it was initially a social media Inktober challenge?) but they decided to collate all the sketches together with the spooky tales that inspired them. Since I'm from Canada I was familiar with a handful of the stories already but not being located on the East Coast myself, there were quite a few chilling tales of which I had been previously unaware. Booo!

I think this would make a really lovely coffee table book; the drawings are so finely rendered and the stories that coincide are only a page each, making it easy to browse through and devour some eerie Canadian Maritimes folklore...

Thanks to NetGalley, author Bee Stanton, and Nimbus Publishing for giving me access to a free digital advanced readers copy of the book to read and review. All opinions are my own and are provided here voluntarily.

3.5 stars - Sparked by the author's love of Inktober, this book is a collection of beautiful pen-and-ink illustrations paired with some of Atlantic Canada's infamous, spooky folklore. The tales themselves were entertaining, split between the heartwarming and the ominous, but often felt too short to really fall into, but the drawings added a depth that I really appreciated. Overall an enjoyable and interesting look at the haunted coast and ghosts of the North Atlantic.
