PETER RICQ SHOWS GHOSTS ARE PEOPLE TOO ON KICKSTARTER
It's the Halloween season so we're full up on spooky stuff of all shapes and sizes. Peter Ricq is getting in on the action with his first ever illustrated prose book, Ghosts are People Too, currently on Kickstarter. It's a book for spooky living people of all ages following a simple ordinary ghost named Ethan Alby.
Ethan has a family—just like you. He likes playing with toys and his dog, Mini Ricky. Sometimes, though, Ethan gets scared. In Ghosts are People Too, Ethan shares what scares him, how difficult it is to share a home with a living girl he's fallen for (when she doesn't even know he exists), and why we shouldn't be afraid of one another.

“This book is a helpful guide to getting along with ghosts,” said living author Peter Ricq. “Ghosts are people just like you and me, and they can be afraid of us just as much as we are from them. We should take the time to learn from one another and become friends. And, really, this should be applied with real living people and not only the supernatural.”
“Halloween season has been my favorite season since I was a child,” said Ricq. “It had a sense of danger and adventure and that feeling has never dissipated since. I remember watching Fright Night and The Thing from Outer Space coming home from Trick or Treating when I was around 7 years old and those moments of counting your treats along with the excitement of monsters on the TV was so magical, more so than any other holiday. I've since always had a touch of horror, danger, and adventure in my work since."
Rewards for the Kickstarter campaign include digital and physical copies of the book itself, signed and doodled versions, original illustrations, and more. The campaign runs through November 20th, 2020.
