Aging rock star Judas Coyne spends his retirement collecting morbid memorabillia such as a witch's confession, a real snuff film and, after being sent an e-mail directly about the item online, a dead man's suit. He is told, by the daughter, that the old man's spirit is attached to this funeral suit. The ghost will go wherever it does and so buying this suit would effectively be buying a poltergeist; Judas cannot pass up this opportunity. The suit soon arrives in a heart shaped box. Various odd occurrences alert Judas to the fact that the ghost is dangerous and is out to kill him and those around him.Throughout the book there are several references to Hard Rock, Heavy Metal, Punk, Blues and Country.
The title is the name of a Nirvana song. He also uses as a plot point I Hate Myself And Want To Die, a B-side by Nirvana.

"Souls for Sale"

Fiquei com medo de ouvir audiobook de livro de terror, mas não achei esse muito assustador. A voz indiferente do narrador talvez tenha ajudado. Gostei, é bem doido mas legalzinho também.
