"If you like the genre, you'll love Landon Connors and the entourage of standing characters in Bob Freeman's imaginarium. The tales in this volume range from the classic noir detective yarn with Connors at the center, to horror stories set in rural places like those of the author's youth." -- Freeman Presson, Wizard

"...like the bastard lovechild of The X-Files, H.P. Lovecraft, and Doctor Strange; and I mean that in the most loving way possible." -- The Monster Librarian

"The tales here breathe, and oft times, there's a hint of brimstone, perhaps some of that old black magick lurks in the exhale." -- Steven Shrewsbury, co-author of Bad Magick

Collected here are 22 Tales set in the universe of Occult Detective Landon Connors.

What's an occult detective?

Occult Detectives are investigators who immerse themselves in all things strange and unusual. More than just "ghost hunters", occult detectives are well versed in all manner of occult and magical traditions; in the beliefs, denominations, cults, and sects of traditional and fringe religions; in folk and shamanic practices; in conspiracy theories of all stripes; in ancient aliens, alien abductions, ufology, cryptozoology, altered states of consciousness, ancient history and archaeology, cryptoanthropology, psychic phenomena, and other Fortean matters; in climate change and geopolitics; in secret societies and political structures. Occult Detective tales are those that combine the tropes of traditional detective stories with those found in supernatural horror.

Collected together for the first time are the complete stories of Occult Detective Landon Connors and those supernatural investigators who exist within his cosmology.

From the arcane sorceries of "The Wickedest Man in the World" to the preternatural exploits of hard-boiled gumshoe Sam Hill and the harrowing investigations of Agents Wolfe and Crowe, this collection of macabre tales of the black arts treads the dangerous landscape between this world and that populated by angels and demons, gods and devils, ghosts and spirits, and the legendary creatures of our darkest imaginings. This is the place Landon Connors calls home.
