Review
The novel follows four characters living for a few weeks in the haunted Hill House to observe any paranormal activity.
As events unfold, it becomes clear that there may be a good reason why the house has earned its reputation as haunted, especially when the group begins to experience strange and increasingly frightening phenomena themselves.
The Haunting of Hill House represents one of the best examples of a haunted house story ever written, so it comes as no surprise that it has had such longevity.
The characters are well-written and believable, and the fear grows slowly until you can stand it no longer; then, suddenly, things take a turn for the truly horrific.
