American Remake Of A Japanese Ghost Story is a story collected in [[Not A Speck Of Light (Book)]]. The story's protagonist is recurring character [[Jessica Mace]]. The story takes place at a big farm in [[Upstate New York]] near the Catskills mountains, the home of movie director [[Gil Finlay]] and his wife and publicist Rikki. Jessica's _"boon comrade and sometimes lover"_ (Not a Speck of Light, p. 262) [[Beasley]] is mentioned in the story. Gil Finlay also appears in the [[Isaiah Coleridge Series]] novella [[The Wind Began To Howl]], where he mentions the haunted farm where this story takes place. I believe this farmhouse is later sold to the protagonists from [[Not A Speck Of Light (Story)]]. Gil Finlay mentions his movie The Ornithologist, the description of which matches the story that the protagonist of [[Black Dog]] is busy writing. Mary the Magnificent, strongperson of the carnival from the story [[Screaming Elk, MT]] is mentioned. At the end of the story, Jessica teams up with some supernatural force of darkness, which I don't think we've seen anywhere else. #Story #Speck
