I'm what the paranormal folk call an 'antenna'. To put it bluntly, the spirit world loves me. It's not just ghosts either (a real life Witch explained this to me, so you know it's legit), but demons, angels, lost souls, and apparently even dead animals. Thus begins the hilarious and haunting tale of a Chicago handyman as he ventures around the city's South Side mending fences and rattling pipes while falling into a knockdown drag out fight between the forces of good and a couple of Hell's rejects known as the Furies. Enlisting the help of a witch, a gypsy woman, two demons and two angels, the handyman must decide his relationship with the world around him in order to battle personal and real evils. Both evocative and entertaining, A Handyman's Guide to Paranormal Events is a charming tale of discovery set against the ingrained bias of a technical society. Loosely based on Baffoe's life, A Handyman's Guide to Paranormal Events is a lavishly written tall tale that mixes the rich history of Chicago and its neighborhoods with some local folk lore. Baffoe's sarcastic humor and rich imagination combine for a macabre and amusing trip around Chicago's infamous South Side.
