Larundel: The Ring of Lost Souls Book Trailer

So at the moment I am supposed to be editing The Ring of Lost Souls. *note to publisher: I am editing, really, I am* However, I was getting to the point where I needed a bit of a change. I needed to see my novel through fresh eyes. With that in mind, I gathered up my camera and headed out to take some photos of Larundel in all her decrepit glory. While I couldn't get inside the place, I managed to take some beautiful photos of her from outside the work site (it is currently being restored and converted to a community hub).

The next day, I sat down with those photos, along with some that I obtained from a confidential source (these photos were from the inside of the building) and some freaky-awesome video footage given to me by author friend, Alison DeLuca. Mashed it all together in Movie Maker Live and voila! A video is born.

This, my friends, is the result:




Let me know what you think - and if you like it, please share it with your friends ;-)

Here's the blurb of The Ring of Lost Souls:

Larundel - A place plagued by lost souls.
A Ring that has claimed a few of them.
And a women about to collide with a world she had forgotten about.

When an abandoned mental asylum is set to be redeveloped, sinister events unfold in the community surrounding it.

Isobel moves into the neighborhood looking for a new future only to find a past that she never knew belonged to her. Is she is a sane person living in an insane world or a crazy person floating in reality?

Set in an actual abandoned mental asylum on the outskirts of Melbourne, Australia, THE RING OF LOST SOULS is a fast-paced ghost story that weaves together a blend of fantasy, Celtic mythology, urban legend and pure insanity.
