If humans had to use litterboxes I expect that would be similarly revelatory.

Graphic for America's Most Gothic, with gold filigree edges and a moody, haunted house background, with Publisher's Weekly review text: "A spine-tingling investigation of ghostly mayhem and gory deeds. It's a satisfying combination of well-sourced fact-checking, thoughtful literary analysis, and creepy chills." From the authors of A HAUNTED HISTORY OF INVISIBLE WOMEN comes AMERICA'S MOST GOTHIC: HAUNTED HISTORY STRANGER THAN FICTION by Leanna Renee Hieber and Andrea Janes. The book cover features a teal background with a central haunted house (typical Gothic, mansard roof, eerily lit interior, surrounded by encroaching mist and overgrowing forest.) The text is in white script and the subtitle in a rich goldenrod yellow that mirrors the filigree detailing and quatrefoil corner pieces of gothic detailing around the edges.

I don’t know if they’re accepting manuscripts right now, but it couldn’t hurt to ask.
