Tales of Haunting by Latigo Bayne – Volume 5

Guilt lingers. Spirits remember. Redemption always comes at a cost.

In this fifth volume of the acclaimed Tales of Haunting series, Latigo Bayne takes readers deeper into the spiritual shadows of Southeast Asia—where ancient beliefs, forbidden rituals, and unresolved grief refuse to stay buried.

These five chilling stories blend Thai folklore, psychological horror, and slow-burning suspense to explore what happens when the past isn’t just remembered… but returns.

Inside this volume:

🔮 The Antique Collector’s Dark Bargain
A lawyer obsessed with rare antiques crosses a line into forbidden magic—unleashing the terrifying Krasue, the floating head ghost of Thai legend. What begins as fascination turns into a fight for his life, faith, and soul.

🛻 Haunting Whispers: The Restless Spirits of Chiang Rai
After a tragic car crash, a woman’s spirit comes home—but not alone. As love turns into obsession, the man left behind must ask: can peace be found, or will he be the next to vanish?

🪦 The Headless Ghost of Maha Sarakham
A once-feared gangster dies—and returns as a headless ghost to the village he ruled. Rituals fail. Panic spreads. And redemption, if it’s possible at all, may come too late.

🌲 Whispers in the Yewcalyptus
A teenage dare leads to an encounter with the unknown. In the dense woods, not all spirits seek revenge. Sometimes, compassion is the only way out of the darkness.

🩰 The Haunting of the Dancers
Inside an abandoned dance studio, ghostly performers still rehearse their final routine. As the truth behind the curse unravels, one man must confront a legacy of jealousy, grief, and beauty turned monstrous.

Told with Bayne’s signature slow-burn style and rooted in Thai spiritual tradition, Volume 5 explores guilt, grace, and the fine line between justice and vengeance. These are not just ghost stories—they’re emotional reckonings dressed in shadows.
