Haunting #442: Salon de Spin
Number of ghosts: A boogie bunch of phantom disco divas
Location: West End, London
History: Former site of an underground gay nightclub from the 70s. It burned down in an unsolved arson incident and killed a number of men who got trapped in the club.
Wanted: Immediate ghost removal. Customers can’t handle the flickering lights, spooky vibes, or ABBA and the BeeGees playing on repeat while they’re trying to work out.

The ExorSquad Team: Callum Fraser, former detective inspector turned ghost hunter. Visiting American paranormal podcaster and bona fide ghost whisperer, Beau Montgomery.

Additional Notes: Apparitions spotted in studio mirrors. All exercise music that is played switches over to disco classics that make you want to do The Bump and The Hustle. Instances of temporary possession of exercise bikes reported. Phantom strobe lights and illuminated floors have begun to manifest. A disco ball hanging from the ceiling keeps reappearing no matter how many times it is removed. Notable increase in paranormal activity signals growing danger. Be careful!
Glitter. Ghosts. One grump, one sunshine—and a haunting that might just spark a love story.
Callum Fraser
From detective inspector to ghost hunter—how did my life go this spectacularly wrong?
The supernatural upended my world, and after some highly questionable training from ExorSquad Ltd., I’m chasing ghosts instead of criminals. My first case as a Spirit Extraction Specialist? A spin studio haunted by things that boogie and shake in the night.
Enter chaos in the form of Beau Montgomery.
An absurdly cheerful American in suspenders and a bowtie who insists on calling me big fella, sugar,and darlin’. Beau’s all glitter, warmth, and a smile sweeter than sin. I prefer order, control, and silence, but somehow he manages to dazzle and confound me in equal measure.
And because of him, I’m beginning to realise the ghosts don’t need capturing or annihilating. They need help moving on. Solving a mystery to help the process along is giving me a new lease on life and I’m starting to think Beau and I could maybe be more than partners in supernatural crime… if only there wasn’t an ocean between us.

Beau Montgomery
I’ve been talking to ghosts all my life, so of course my first visit abroad was going to be merry old London, England. I have a list of haunted pubs and a Polaroid camera ready to make this the trip of a lifetime.
What I didn’t plan for was Callum Fraser.
Tall. Brooding. Scottish. Grumpy enough to sour a glass of lemonade.
Oh, and he’s the first man I’ve ever met who’s got a bit of The Gift too. He can see ghosts, just like me.
Back home in Mobile, Alabama, when someone blows into your life like a tornado, folks just call it fate.
Now we’ve got a bunch of disco-loving spirits who need our help getting closure so they can move on. Meanwhile, I’m wooing the heck out of my grumpy, guarded Scotsman. Mama does call me the maestro of multitasking, after all.

Callum’s a tough nut to crack, but a Southern gentleman doesn’t go down without a fight. If we want our own happily-ever-after, we’ve got to solve this haunting, figure out what these ghosts need, and somehow keep our spark alive across the Atlantic. Otherwise, our chance at love may end up deader than disco.

The ExorSquad Series is a collection of standalone MM romcoms centred around the unfortunate employees of ExorSquad Ltd, the UK’s shadiest ghost-busting operation. Expect supernatural shenanigans, things that go bump in the night, sizzling encounters, and hard-won happy-ever-afters.
