Book Description
Melissa Creighton was never one to follow her father’s admonitions, especially when, for some strange reason, he tells her not to go to the attic. So, being Melissa, she goes to the attic. There she discovers her beloved grandfather Philip Creighton’s Civil War journal hidden in the bottom of a trunk. What she reads in his journal sparks her imagination and, burning with curiosity, she is determined to visit Howard Hill, the Petersburg, Virginia plantation where he spent so much time during the siege of Petersburg. Using her best little-sister wiles, she convinces her reluctant brother Alex to sneak away with her to find Howard Hill. When Melissa and Alex enter the abandoned plantation house, she senses at once that they are not alone. Soon, they encounter the unexpected—including the malevolent presence that places their lives in danger. Despite that, they remain committed to finding answers to the puzzling questions that arise during their terrifying journey into the past. What they discover turns their lives upside down.

The Haunting of Hill House
Author: Shirley Jackson
Publisher: Penguin

The greatest haunted house story ever written, the inspiration for a 10-part Netflix series directed by Mike Flanagan and starring Michiel Huisman, Carla Gugino, and Timothy Hutton First published in 1959, Shirley Jackson’s The Haunting of Hill House has been hailed as a perfect work of unnerving terror.

At first, their stay seems destined to be merely a spooky encounter with inexplicable phenomena. But Hill House is gathering its powers—and soon it will choose one of them to make its own.

The Horror Stories of Robert E. Howard
Author: Robert E. Howard
Publisher: Del Rey
ISBN: 0345509749
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 562
Book Description
Here are Robert E. Howard’s greatest horror tales, all in their original, definitive versions. Some of Howard’s best-known characters—Solomon Kane, Bran Mak Morn, and sailor Steve Costigan among them—roam the forbidding locales of the author’s fevered imagination, from the swamps and bayous of the Deep South to the fiend-haunted woods outside Paris to remote jungles in Africa. The collection includes Howard’s masterpiece “Pigeons from Hell,” which Stephen King calls “one of the finest horror stories of [the twentieth] century,” a tale of two travelers who stumble upon the ruins of a Southern plantation–and into the maw of its fatal secret. In “Black Canaan” even the best warrior has little chance of taking down the evil voodoo man with unholy powers–and none at all against his wily mistress, the diabolical High Priestess of Damballah. In these and other lavishly illustrated classics, such as the revenge nightmare “Worms of the Earth” and “The Cairn on the Headland,” Howard spins tales of unrelenting terror, the legacy of one of the world’s great masters of the macabre.
