Award-Winning Podcast Duo Announces New Book, 'A Haunted Road Atlas: Next Stop' Andrews McMeel Publishing to Release September 2024

KANSAS CITY, Mo., April 8, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Get ready for spine-tingling tales, chilling pit stops, and frozen delights as Christine Schiefer and Em Schulz, the dynamic duo behind the award-winning podcast And That's Why We Drink, embark on another hair-raising journey in their upcoming book, A Haunted Road Atlas: Next Stop. From unsolved mysteries to spectral encounters, this gripping sequel to their New York Times bestselling debut A Haunted Road Atlas: Sinister Stops, Dangerous Destinations, and True Crime Tales promises even more thrills, spills, and paranormal chills. Buckle up—it's going to be a wild ride!

A Haunted Road Atlas: Next Stop will explore all the places Christine and Em didn't get to include in the first book, focusing on 30 new cities they've fallen in love with on their travels … and the scariest places that left them shaking in their boots.

"We've never been particularly good at stopping a project when we know there's more we can do," Schulz said. "Our last book was just not enough for us, and we are so excited to bring even more sinister stories your way! We advise that you pair this book with a box of wine, a hearty milkshake, and maybe a protection spell in case things go awry."
