About the author
Marla Brooks writes on witchcraft practice and regional hauntings, with titles spanning both areas of the catalogue. Magick for All Seasons: A Grimoire for the Wheel of the Year, published by Weiser Books in 2025, is framed as everyday witch wisdom organized around the seasonal calendar, including material presented as passed-down tips from a grandmother figure. Workplace Spells: Everyday Magick on the Job, from Redfeather, applies a similar practical approach to office and career situations. Her other books, including Ghosts of Hollywood II: Talking to Spirits and Ghosts of Hollywood III, both from Schiffer Publishing, move into reported hauntings and séance accounts tied to Hollywood studios, hotels, and homes, including stories involving well-known deceased actors. Across both strands, Brooks favors an accessible, how-to or story-driven style over historical or academic treatment, suiting readers looking for practical seasonal witchcraft on one hand and entertainment-industry ghost lore on the other.
