An Introduction to The Dream Haunters

Megan Mary introduces us to Hannah Skye, a young woman in search of meaning, who receives a mysterious letter from her missing Aunt Jewelia. Haunted by recurring dreams of a pumpkin patch, Hannah embarks on a spiritual journey that leads her to Maple Hollow, an island perpetually basked in the beauty of autumn. Here, she discovers the mystical Skye Manor and unearths her magical family legacy. With elements of magical realism, fantasy, and metaphysical mystery, The Dream Haunters promises an immersive experience for readers who love exploring the mystical and unknown.

A Mystasy

Megan coins her unique genre as a "mystasy" combining elements of mystery and fantasy that teach while entertaining. Set during Halloween, the time when the veil between worlds is thinnest, the story challenges Hannah to uncover the secrets behind her aunt's disappearance, with the guidance of a talking cat and wise villagers. The narrative weaves through the complex tapestry of dreams and provides insights into metaphysics, offering readers both an adventurous and educational journey.

Delving into Dreamwork

One of the central themes of Megan's work is dream appreciation. Drawing from her expertise in dream analysis, she introduces the concept of "Dream Haunters," fictional antagonists who remind readers of the importance of understanding and valuing their dreams. Through The Dream Haunters, Megan aims to empower individuals to unlock the meanings behind their dreams, transforming the dream experience into a tool for personal growth and understanding.

Book Inspirations and Writing Process

In our conversation, I learned about the inspirations behind Megan's magical island and her writing process. Megan expressed her love for autumn and her desire to create a place where this cherished season never ends. As a pantser, Megan writes without detailed plotting, allowing her stories to unfold naturally as she progresses. This spontaneous approach allows her characters and plots to develop organically, fostering a genuine connection between her creativity and the story's direction.

Looking Forward: The Series Continues

Fans of The Dream Haunters will be thrilled to know that Megan is continuing the series with The Dream Mirrors, set to explore themes of duality, reflection, and the nature of reality. As the journey progresses, Hannah and the readers will delve deeper into the metaphysical mysteries that surround the dreamscape.

Megan Mary's The Dream Haunters offers a captivating blend of magic, mystery, and exploration of the dream world that beckons readers to uncover deeper meanings within themselves. Whether you are fascinated by metaphysics or simply love a good fantasy tale, this book is a delightful addition to your reading list.
