New London - Fictitious setting of ‘Heat of the Ghosts’



Heat of the Ghosts - refers to the energy needed by the local night club in New London. The ‘Heat’ is created by capturing the torment of ghosts of the sacrificed chosen ones “The Rebbeccas”



Thursday - is the name given to 'The Day of Sacrifice' in New London



Mayor Chance - gangster/mayor of New London who has built a massive night club ‘The Streamer’ requiring such vast amounts of energy that he must harness sacrificed citizen’s ghosts which it uses to power it.

The Streamer - Mayor Chance’s nightclub

. He lives above, and it's where the Rebbeccas are kept.



The Rebbeccas - Are chosen each year by Mayor Chance. They are loved and adored the entire year, then sacrificed at the dance in order to trap their ghosts and harness the energy of their suffering



Train - A citizen of New London. He is a plumber who is chosen by a lotto as the Rebbeccas’ date for the night of the Dance and subsequently becomes a tool in their escape plan.

The Streamings - The Gang that Mayor Chance is leader of. He grew up rising in the ranks. Many locals view The Streamings as shepherds of the community.

The Lotto - The Rebbeccas are chosen each year by Mayor Chance, and their date for the dance is chosen by lotto or by “Chance”.



Magic - In this ficticious setting, magic exists. The rebbeccas are smart and they have stolen some spells from the Mayors Castle and cast a spell on Train’s backpack putting him under their control. They send him up the mountain to the ghost cauldron and he is able to release the ghosts into a 1-mile -high “Ghost Wave” he is able to surf….thats right surf.... back to the dance, where he saves the Rebbeccas and has a great time…all the while believing he is under his own free will. 



Ghost Cauldron - Enclosure for the ghosts. Train must scale the mountain and release the ghosts during "Cauldron> Narration > Ghost Wave" part of the story

Ghost Wave - The wave of ghosts as they escape the Ghost Cauldron. While under a spell Train surfs them to the Dance to save the Rebbeccas from the Soul Sucker.



Soul Sucker - Device by which Rebbeccas are killed

Chris Michels Michigan

Fusion guitarist Chris Michels adds a tasteful hint of folk and jazz to his jamming and songwriting. Always striving for a good lyrical hook, he has a large catalog focused on musicianship AND goofiness that is very tight- and very loose at the same time. ... more
