I'm new to this series and works by Traci Wilton. When I heard about this book, I just had to read it. I loved the movie/theater theme throughout this book. The author did a wonderful job of storytelling and making me feel that I'm with her characters. I recommend checking out this book.

My thanks to Kensington Publishing for a digital copy of this book!

Anytime you see a book written by Traci WIlton you know you are picking up an excellent read. As I read I try to solve the mystery in the story along with Charlene but this one had me. There were so many twists and turns that I did not solve it in my head.

I always love reading about Charlene, Sam, Silva and Jack. Jack is the resident Ghost who can't leave the property but Charlene is the only one in the house that can see or hear him. He is always getting in her conversations with other people and she has to stop herself from talking to him in front of others.

A great read I think you will enjoy

This is a Fantasy Cozy Mystery, and this is the 7th book in the Salem B and B Mystery Series. I have read all the other books in this series before picking up this book, but I do think you could read this book as a standalone. I do think you will miss some of the characters backstories if you choose to read this book as a standalone. I really love all the characters in this book, but my favorite character is Jack the Ghost. I really hope later on in this series Jack is able to leave the B and B. This book was a fun read just like the other books in this series, and the mystery in this book did keep me guessing which I loved. I was kindly provided an e-copy of this book by the publisher (Kensington Cozies) or author (Traci Wilton) via NetGalley, so I can give an honest review about how I feel about this book. I want to send a big Thank you to them for that. This book is scheduled to be released on August 22-2023.

The next Mrs. Morris mystery finds her investigating the poisoning murder of a movie theater owner. This is a fun series with the supernatural elements! It’s definitely a different take on the cozy mystery. It’s not required to read the previous books in the series but I think it helps with characters here.

First time reading this author or series. The cover is what drew me to this new-to-me series It’s quirky and fun. I love the fact of a resident ghost. I had no trouble sorting out who was who and the relationships quickly. The mystery itself was intriguing. It took me a bit to fall into the rhythm of the book. I enjoyed my intro to this series

This book is a mystery about a death in a soon-to-be-opened, after renovation, movie theater. Mrs. Morris has the teen introduced earlier in the series, Avery as her sidekick for out of house sleuthing as well has her ghost friend, Jack to help solve this murder. I like Mrs. Morris' method of getting the facts and clues to solve the murder. I like the characters in this series and how the reader gets a taste of Salem.

The cover is what drew me to this new-to-me series/book. Having not read previous books in the series, I went into it blind but had no trouble sorting out who was who and the relationships quickly. Now, true, I rather wished I knew more about how the ghostly Jack came to be not just there but visible to Charlene Morris but, hey, something tells me I'll be delving back into this series to play catch up soon. As it was, simply knowing he was there, no one else could see him, and he had been a doctor when alive were enough to satisfy me. As for Avery, her sheer energy pretty much wore me out. Ah, youth. Toss in some fun guests, one of whom found out fishing isn't always a leisurely activity, all of whom we're nicely introduced to, and you'll feel right at home.

The mystery itself was intriguing. Who killed Elise during the theater's reopening bash and showing of Lon Chaney's "The Wolfman"? And what's with all the talk of werewolves and ghosts? Well, the story is set in Salem, so such talk is perhaps not that unusual but, whoa, where is all that anguished howling coming from? How could an evening of popcorn and old movies go so wrong? Could the bouquet of wolf's bane have somehow been the weapon? The spouse is always the obvious first suspect, which Darren surely doesn't help with his insistence on opening the theater up again asap. Why is he so secretive about his past? A worker in fear of losing their job? Oh, so many suspects, not to mention red herrings. Charlene, with her seemingly unstoppable need to help others, has her work cut out for her if she hopes to help Sam, the detective, figure out what's going on, not to mention subtly share herbal knowledge Jack is somehow able to find. Did you know ghosts can use computers?

Bottom line, although it took me a bit to fall into the rhythm of the book, especially since the viewpoint seemed to switch periodically, I enjoyed my intro to this series. I mean, who doesn't love a spooky mystery? Thanks #NetGalley and #KensingtonBooks - #KensingtonCozies for inviting me to spend some time at Charlene's B&B. I'll be back.

Charlene, Jack and Avery are on the case when the new theater owner’s wife is murdered on a friends and family night viewing of The Wolfman before the theater opens to the public. The signs point to Darren, the husband, because she was murdered with the gourmet salts that he sells for his main business. There others who could be the murderer. Matthew the theater manager, Franco the projector operator, Patty the sister and more.

Like all the Mrs. Morris books, this was a fun read with clues that point in many directions until the ah-ha moment. I really enjoy this series. I hope there are more books to come.

Mrs. Morris and the Wolfman is a quirky and fun, cozy mystery, book 7 in Traci Wilton’s Salem B&B Mystery series. I enjoy the character development, especially Charlene’s resident ghost, Jack. This book can be read as a standalone but all the books are fun mysteries and an easy weekend read.

I have been reading this series since the beginning, and I’m loving it. This latest installment is probably one of my favorites so far. Charlene is busy still with running her B&B, but of course it doesn’t take long for her to get involved in another murder. This one kept me guessing almost to the end, and when I finally figured it out right before it was revealed, I was tickled at how the author did it. Not only that, but I was also happy with how it ended in the epilogue. I can’t say too much about that, but I can say I am so ready to read the next one. This has become one of my favorite series. Highly recommend. I was provided a complimentary copy which I voluntarily reviewed.

This was a great addition to the series. I enjoyed being back in Salem and reading about everyone.
If you've never read any in the series you'll still be able to follow along and not feel lost.
Can't wait for the next one!

Thank you to netgalley and the publisher for a chance to read and review this book

Charlene Morris is taking a night away from her Salem, Massachusetts, B&B—and its resident ghost—to enjoy a spooky double-bill, until murder upstages the evening . . .

Saturday night at the movies has some added flair now that Darren and Elise Shultz are reopening one of Salem’s classic theaters. Charlene is delighted to help the couple with their venture, and Darren has lined up a cult classic double-header featuring Lon Chaney in The Wolfman. But things get hairier than expected when Elise starts to choke on her popcorn mid-movie—and once the lights go up,
she’s dead . . .
I love the interaction between Charlene and her ghost it's like an old married couple. It seems when she says she is taking a break things pop up and she is all in on solving a murder. Trying to prove the husband's innocence is her main goal. Through it all she keeps us guessing it was hard to put dow,

This is the 7th installment in the Salem B&B mystery series. Charlene Morris runs a B&B in Salem and since she is relative new business owner she has been recruited to help welcome new business owners in Salem. She has worked with new theater owners Elise and Darren Shultz and she is attending the soft opening of the theater which will be showing “The Wolfman”. Charlene likes the couple and they have incorporated their other business of specialized seasoned salt and is featuring it with the movie theater popcorn. During the movie Elise begins coughing and it appears she is choking but later it is determined that she was poisoned and Charlene is now involved in yet another murder. With Darren as the top suspect, Charlene begins to try and help prove his innocence. She knows he is hiding something but does not believe he would murder his wife. Was it his top salesperson, business partner at the theater or even Elise’s sister. Lots of secrets to uncover and as Charlene gets to the bottom of tangled story. This was definitely a page turner and kept you guessing who was behind the murder and then you learn one secret after another about all the suspects so it keeps you guessing. Really enjoy this series and look forward to the next steps in Charlene’s life. Highly recommend.

A most fun quirky series! The setting is fun. Excellent characters. This is the seventh in the series and is as fresh and exciting as the first! Thanks#netgalley and #Kensington for the eARC in exchange for a honest review. All opinions are mine.

I received this book for free from netgalley for an honest review.

I love this book so much I love that they used booking in the story plus and a lot of the information was very good. The only thing I wish to play with mentioned is how fair it is to get wolf thing in the US.

Otherwise everything was perfect but I love the cover and the setting of course is fantastic!

I like this series, it’s quirky and fun. I thought the whole wolfman thing is very well done, although I did guess who the killer was well before the end. I liked the solution of what to do with the theater. #MrsMorrisandtheWolfman #NetGalley

I received this advance reader copy via Netgalley and the publisher, in return for an honest review. While the 7th book in this series, it’s easily read as a stand-alone.
Charlene, owner of an upscale B&B in Salem, Massachusetts, is excited about a newly renovated movie theater opening. She and her young friend, Avery, attend the soft opening for the Lon Chaney film, The Wolf Man. During the showing, co-owner Elise goes into a choking fit and dies, leaving her husband, Darren, bereft. But, Elise was poisoned and now Darren is also the prime suspect. Charlene realizes things are not what they seem and aided by her resident ghost, Jack, she decides to investigate the situation. Warned off by Sam, her sometimes favorite police officer, Charlene knows she has to carefully figure out who killed Elise and why.

After her husband's untimely death, Charlene Morris moved to Salem, Massachusetts and opened a B&B. It's doing well, and between herself and her employees, she has a thriving business. She also has a resident ghost, Dr. Jack Stratford, who was murdered on the property and is a permanent guest. Only she and her cat, Silva, can see the handsome man. But Charlene doesn't mind. Jack is good company, and he's helped her solve a few murders in the past.

When there's a new theater opening in town, Charlene is one of the guests since she's friends with the owners, Darren and Elise Shults. Darren, owner of a specialty salt company, is finally realizing his dream of owning a classic movie theater. On this night, they're showing The Wolfman with Lon Chaney, Jr. as the haunted hero, a true classic. But halfway through the film, his wife Elise seems to be choking, and is sent to the hospital. But it's too late, and Elise is dead. With Detective Sam Holden looking at Darren as the prime suspect, Charlene has a hard time believing it. The problem is, Sam tells her to stay out of the investigation, while she knows that she can't. Now it's up to her, Jack, and Charlene's young employee Avery to find a killer...

This is the seventh book in the series and I have read them all. Probably because I love the fact of a resident ghost, and he and Charlene have what I would call chemistry, even if it's other-worldly. Jack is definitely taken with Charlene, and while Sam is human, the thing I like most about Jack is he doesn't try to change Charlene, whereas Sam is always nagging her to stop doing things. Jack accepts her for who she is, even if he doesn't like it. He seems more suited to her (and I wish there were some way Jack could come back to the earthly plane to be with her). Ah, well. Just my thoughts.

While Charlene is trying her best to covertly find out who is a killer, she looks into Darren and Elise's pasts to see if she can garner any clues. It is one word uttered by one of Darren's employees that sets her off on a new trail that might just lead her to the reasons behind the murder; but finding the person who killed Elise might just be a dead end.

What follows is an intense search for a killer that brings Charlene into trying not only to take care of her B&B guests, but help Darren prove his innocence. The clues are there if you look for them, but they aren't easy to find. I recognized some of what was going to occur, but not everything. The book fascinated me to the point that I read it in one sitting (not even stopping to eat); and the ending was such a surprise and yet at the same time rather sad and bittersweet. It was probably one of the best books (although I love them all) and I cannot wait to read the next in the series. This talented writer has me completely hooked. Highly recommended.

I was given an advance copy of this book from the publisher and NetGalley but this in no way influenced my review.

[On a side note, I love the old Universal horror films and own every one of them, which I watch around Halloween. If you watch them in order, beginning with Dracula and Frankenstein, they tell a story that segues in each ascending film, including The Wolfman and culminating with House of Dracula. It's a binge watch that has a very good ending. Each film connects to the next. Food for thought and I hope that I have given at least a few people a new enjoyment of older films (and I also can quote the movie lines. Yes, I'm a book nerd and a classic film nerd).]

Charlene Morris attends the opening of a new movie theater in town and is shocked when the wife of the couple who opened it dies at the soft opening. When it turns out to be poisoning, Charlene can’t help but get try to figure out who would do this to the woman, who recently returned to Salem after years away.

When the husband becomes the prime suspect, even Jack finds himself agreeing with Charlene that the man loved his wife too much and would not hurt her. As the story of Darren’s life begins to come out, Charlene’s confidence in the man’s innocence begins to waiver a bit, but she continues to pursue the truth, even if it’s the last thing she does.

It’s hard to believe this is the seventh book in this series already. Each and every entry has been fabulous and I adore Silva, Jack and the rest of the gang that support Charlene in her new life in Salem. Being a Salem lover myself, I often can see and smell the city as I’m reading the books. The author also writes another of my favorite series set in Scotland, so it’s safe to say she’s one of my must read authors! If you haven’t read a book by this author yet, this is a great one to start with. Each one reads fine as a stand alone to get your started.

This was a really fun book I enjoyed reading about the opening of a theater in town showing Monster Movies from the 30's. There was a lot of excitement in the book Charlene runs a B&B in Salem, Massachusetts and she has a resident ghost Jack who was a Doctor before he died. She attends the pre-opening of the Theater which is playing the Lon Chaney Film the Wolf Man as a double feature and also introduces the seasoned salts that the Owners Darren and Elise are promoting as a topping for their popcorn. Disaster strikes at the theater as Elise who has eaten the seasoned popcorn starts choking and dies they find out the seasoning has been tampered with and she was poisoned. Darren is suspected as the killer as he is her husband and they were seen having an argument before the opening. I really enjoyed reading this book it kept my attention long into the night I could not put it down. I highly recommend this book and I am delighted to have read an amazing book by the Author Traci Wilton. This is the seventh book in the series and it looks like I have a lot of reading to do.
