It Was a Dark and Stormy Night...
The pounding of the rain and the distant rumble of thunder on a dark October night got me thinking about one of the most terrifying books I have ever read. I read Richard Matheson's Hell House years ago and I can still remember the sensation of the hair lifting off the back of my neck as I read it. It was that scary. Hell House is a mansion haunted by an evil, sadistic spirit and the souls of others he tormented. Any attempts to explore Hell House have led to murder, suicide or insanity. A physicist, his wife, a psychic, and a previous survivor of Hell House are hired by a dying millionaire to investigate the mysteries of Hell House, regarded as the "Everest of haunted houses"and to determine whether there is life after death. It will frighten you with psychological suspense, not blood and gore. Are you brave enough to dare the horrors of Hell House?
