The Hill House is a place of horror and madness. Stories of ghost sightings, death, and other supernatural events fill its history. Naturally, where there is a mystery, there are always people to solve it. Meet Dr. Montague: a philosopher. He set out to the Hill House to find a scientific explanation for all the supernatural events. He needed assistants however, so he chose three people: Eleanor, Theodora, and Luke. This group then experiences terrifying events during their week-long stay, while experiencing conflict between them. This was an amazing read. I felt very engaged while reading. I love how I was able to see what type of people they are thanks to Shirley Jackson’s work. I recommend this to people who are into horror topics, or people who are looking for something continuously engaging. -Reviewed by Aaron
