About the author
Jill Keppeler is the author of More Freaky Stories about the Paranormal, published by Gareth Stevens Publishing in 2019. The book collects true-account stories of unexplained happenings, strange people and unusual places, illustrated with photographs and paired with brief scientific explanations meant to contextualize each account for young readers. It is written for an audience of children and early teens who are curious about the paranormal, balancing eerie storytelling with factual framing rather than presenting the material as settled fact. The book sits within a children's nonfiction series built around short, illustrated chapters, designed to engage both skeptical and credulous young readers by presenting a claim alongside a possible rational explanation. Keppeler's catalogue entry here reflects a single title aimed squarely at the youth nonfiction market rather than a broader body of adult-oriented paranormal writing.
