ODD Thomas

Odd Thomas is a psychic who lives in a small town in California. He can see mysterious creatures he calls "bodachs" which are otherwise invisible to everyone else. Odd knows they feed on fear and misery, and the greater the number of "bodachs" the more misery is coming. One day at work, Odd sees a strange man swarming with bodachs. Because of the man's strange hair, the back of which looks like a fungal toupee, Odd nicknames him "Fungus man". Odd follows the man to his house, and learns the man is named Bob Robertson. Odd finds a mysterious "doorway" in Fungus Bob's house where hundreds of bodachs are entering the world. Through some investigation, Odd determines that Bob is planning to do something violent. Odd reports his suspicion to his friend Chief Porter, who assigns two deputies to follow Fungus Bob.
