Five "Haunted Horror" Stars
What Spooks Really Haunt the Finch House?
A small taste of what is inside:
Justin Wainwright has his own podcast show called WrightWire and he reaches out to four well known horror authors as he wants to give them the opportunity to do an interview in the famous haunted Finch house on Halloween night and to stay overnight in the haunted house. The authors are intrigued, but they have a hard time deciding if that is what they want to do, but Wainwright talks them into it and they make their way to the house.
When they get to the house and get settled nothing happens right at first, but the longer they are there little things start happening within the house. Whispers, drafts, apparitions, along with a bricked wall that was built on the third floor landing keeping anyone from entering past that point. The house starts to slowly come alive to the point that the authors wonder if it was such a good idea after all to come out to the house!
That is about all I can hand out with a small taste so if you are intrigued then go read this book!
Thoughts:
The first time I read this book was in September of 2020 and was amazed that this book was a debut novel as this book just slowly draws you into the story. The author builds up the suspense, tension, and atmosphere of this spooky read bringing everything to a rising crescendo and then lowers the boom as the house comes alive leaving the author characters bewildered as they didn't really expect much to happen.
I loved this book so much that I decided to reread it again in 2021 around Halloween time as I wanted to absorb the story and take my time with it which I did. I loved it the second time around even more as there were just a few little things I had forgot about that happen within the story and it was like rediscovering the book all over again.
Both times reading the book I would stay up long hours into the night as I just could not put the book down! Out of all the ghost stories I have read over the course of my lifetime and I have read quite a few, this story climbs up into my top three all time haunting/ghost stories.
All of the horror author characters were perfect as they were suppose to be from different horror genres, so I really liked the characters in this story. The pace of the book just flows along and I love the writing style of the author as well. This book was already on my favorites shelf and there it will stay. I would consider this book to eventually become a classic ghost story as it is that great of spooky tale that stays with you long after you put it down!
