A woman must confront the evil that has been terrorizing her street since she was a child in this gripping haunted house novel from the national bestselling author of The House That Horror Built and Good Girls Don’t Die.On an otherwise ordinary street in Chicago, there is a house. An abandoned house where, once upon a time, terrible things happened. The children who live on this block are told by their parents to stay away from that house. But of course, children don’t listen. Children think it’s fun to be scared, to dare each other to go inside.Jessie Campanelli did what many older sisters do and dared her little brother Paul. But unlike all the other kids who went inside that abandoned house, Paul didn’t return. His two friends, Jake and Richie, said that the house ate Paul. Of course adults didn’t believe that. Adults never believe what kids say. They thought someone kidnapped Paul, or otherwise hurt him. They thought Paul had disappeared in a way that was ordinary, explainable.The disappearance of her little brother broke Jessie’s family apart in ways that would never be repaired. Jessie grew up, had a child of her own, kept living on the same street where the house that ate her brother sat, crouched and waiting. And darkness seemed to spread out from that house, a darkness that was alive—alive and hungry.

Rezension von Romina MühlkeEin sehr gutes Buch, aber nicht das Beste der Autorin. Es gab zwar sehr sehr brutale Szenen und gerade direkt am Anfang hatte ich auch ein bisschen Gänsehaut vom gruseln. Insgesamt war es aber eher ein sehr subtiler Horror und manchmal vielleicht ein bisschen langweilig. Trotzdem hat es mich durchgehend dazu gebracht weiterlesen zu wollen. Vielleicht ein gutes Einsteiger Horror Buch.
