Our Ghost Books Story
In 1989, Antonio R. Garcez and Hank Estrada, embarked on a mission to bring real, first-hand ghost stories from across the United States to readers with an interest in the supernatural. Together, they founded an independent publishing company, Red Rabbit Press (aka GhostBooks.Biz).
For more than 30 years, Antonio and Hank traveled throughout the country, in an effort to investigate and connect with spirits via interviews, photography and in alleged haunted locations.
Antonio’s final book-Unforgettable Ghost Story Interviews-was published post-mortem by Hank. This culminating book of the series is an exceptional collection of the best of and never-before-published interviews by Antonio.
