THE HAUNTING OF HILL HOUSE BY SHIRLEY JACKSON
She turned her car onto the last stretch of straight drive leading her directly, face to face, with Hill House and, moving without thought, pressed her foot on the brake to stall the car and sat, staring.
The house was vile. She shivered and thought, the words coming freely into her mind, Hill House is vile, it is diseased; get away from here at once.

ReplyDeleteYikes! That would make me do a u-turn and burn rubber in retreat!
ReplyDeleteCreeeeeepy~~
ReplyDeleteI'm going to have to agree with everyone so far: that book looks downright creepy.
ReplyDeleteOooh this sounds really good! I can't wait to hear your thoughts on it when you finish.
ReplyDeleteI think I'd be making a u-turn too! Creepy!
ReplyDeleteIt was a creepy read at some points and I agree with Softdrink and Wendy. I would have to burn rubber out of there too! No way would you get me inside that house!!!
ReplyDeleteGuess I have to agree with everyone else on this...creepy. It sounds like the type of book I'd have to know what kind of ending it has before I'd start reading it.
ReplyDeleteReally great teaser! I've heard this book is good. The creepier the better I say!
ReplyDeleteOooh I love it, sounds awesome and I'd have to agree, the darker & creepier the better!
ReplyDeleteJo: I don't blame you. I wasn't very impressed with the ending however.
ReplyDeleteDar: Thanks! I really liked the first half of it but the ending not so much :(
Teddyree: :)
