Description
"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."
Rumors of psychic disturbances surround Hill House. Are they caused by a ghostly presence, or are the reasons for the building's terrifying and mysterious reputation altogether more mundane?
When Eleanor Vance is invited to join a group of ghost hunters to assess the strange happenings at the house, she jumps at the chance. But what begins as a simple experiment soon turns into the stuff of nightmares.
Shirley Jackson's chilling tale is one of the twentieth century's most effective and unsettling ghost stories.
