About the author
Marie Morrison is the author of a series of illustrated books for young readers on reportedly haunted places, published by PowerKids Press in 2020. Titles including The White House Is Haunted!, The Queen Mary Is Haunted!, Gettysburg Is Haunted!, and Edinburgh Castle Is Haunted! each pair a site's documented history with the ghost stories associated with it, covering locations from a Civil War battlefield to a retired ocean liner turned hotel. The books are part of a children's nonfiction series that introduces historical events and figures alongside local haunting legends, written for a school-age audience rather than adult readers of the paranormal genre. Each title balances factual background on the location with the folklore that has grown up around it, making the series a light entry point into history and ghost lore for young readers.
