A queer, Latinx take on Ghostbusters from New York Times bestselling author Mark Oshiro, Jasmine is Haunted is an original middle grade contemporary fantasy about ghosts, grief, and the friends that make it all ok.

Every apartment Jasmine Garza has ever lived in has been haunted but none of them have been haunted by the only ghost that Jasmine cares about: Papi’s.

Not that her mami believes that anything supernatural is going on. But even ghosts you don’t believe in make real trouble, so Jasmine and her mom are moving (again) to a new apartment in East Hollywood, and this time Jasmine is committed to living a normal life with normal friends.

Enter: Bea Veracruz and Jorge Barrera. They’re the only two members of Jasmine's middle school's Gay Straight Alliance and they’re already obsessed with ghosts. Bea wants to prove herself to her paranormal investigator parents and Jorge is determined to overcome his fear of the beyond. They’re the Gay Spirits Alliance! And when Jasmine confesses she’s been tormented by ghosts for years, they not only believe her, they’re thrilled!

Together they set out to prove that Jasmine’s not just acting out after her father’s death–ghosts are real and Jasmine is haunted. But while Bea and Jorge think they’re just setting out to capture ghosts for proof and then set them free, Jasmine plans to get rid of them for good.

But Jasmine doesn't have the whole story, and when she finds out what her parents kept secret from her, she’ll learn that when you’re “protected” from the past, you lose access to its power.
