  • A stunning, unusual tale of a dark family history

    An unusual classic tale, told from the point of view of the youngest sister living in a big old house where the family have a dark history. Strangely spine-chilling and beautifully written. Gave me an impending sense of dread all the way through. Superb.

  • "Eats away at you slowly, then Zoom, your off"

    Superb storytelling by Jackson and well worth reading again. Great characters that I won't ever forget. Attention to detail is astounding.

  • Terrifying!

    Starts out scaring you and doesn't let up. An amazing piece of writing. Shirley Jackson is one of the greatest writers of horror stories.
