Description
“Hell House is the scariest haunted house novel ever written. It looms over the rest the way the mountains loom over the foothills.” — Stephen King
From the author of I Am Legend comes Hell House, the basis for the supernatural horror film starring Pamela Franklin, Roddy McDowall, Clive Revill.
For over twenty years, Belasco House has stood empty. Regarded as the Mount Everest of haunted houses, its shadowed walls have witnessed scenes of unimaginable horror and depravity. All previous attempts to probe its mysteries have ended in murder, suicide, or insanity. But now, a new investigation has been launched, bringing four strangers to Belasco House in search of the ultimate secrets of life and death. A wealthy publisher, brooding over his impending death, has paid a physicist and two mediums to establish the facts of life after death once and for all. For one night, they will investigate the Belasco House and learn exactly why the townsfolk refer to it as the Hell House.
Hell House, which inspired the 1973 film The Legend of Hell House, is Matheson’s most frightening and shocking book and an acknowledged classic of the genre.

Disturbingly good!
I thoroughly enjoyed this story.. it was unexpectedly dark and and pretty graphic. The setting and some of the writing style is dated, but didn't hinder my enjoyment of the story overall. There are parts that made me pull faces in disgust or horror, or make goosebumps show up on my arms, which I loved, because it was partly the narrator's effects and partly the story, and I love nothing more than a good story that makes me physically react. I would often have to reset my sleep timer because I just wanted to keep listening!
The narrator is excellent, and really makes the dialogue come alive. There's never any question as to who is talking, and he can do the scary voices quite well. I am picky with narration, but I'd listen to anything by Ray Porter any day.

Stephen King is right. Genuinely Scary
The King of Horror once pronounced this novel the best haunted house story ever written. He was correct. It definitely follows a formula - strangers paid by a dying eccentric man to stay in a creepy setting possessed by evil spirits - but Richard Matheson is a master at it. The characters are interesting (flawed and often unlikable), the setting is genuinely disturbing, and the atmosphere sets the reader on edge. The inexplicable episodes of ghostly activity are shocking and legitimately spooky. This book was written 50 years ago but feels like it could have taken place this summer. The writing and dialogue is a little immature, it is oversexualized at points - and it would be fair to say it is filled with clichés - but it is definitely unsettling. It's also fair to say it helped create those clichés in the first place. The book must have been astounding in 1971, as it is still engrossing now. A true masterpiece of horror.
Ray Porter delivers a masterful reading. His performance is reserved but full of emotion.
This trope-establishing novel is worth 8.5 stars out of 10.

Nonsensical Filler!
The Writer clearly felt the need to focus on non-essential aspects of story telling and being overly descriptive about the atmosphere, while focusing less on character development and/or plot.

Awful narration
The story was good for what it is but the narration is absolutely cringe worthy. I had a hard time getting through this and taking it seriously. The narrator's story telling is great, but when it comes to voicing the women and the evil spirits dialogue it's just horrible. I really didn't want to keep listening but I don't like to leave things unfinished. I wish I would have read the physical copy myself.

Relies on rape and homophobia to drive the horror.
This is my first negative review.
I would like to begin by saying that Ray Porter read the book well, he is absolved from blame in this.
But the book relies on tawdry use of rape and homophobia to drive the horror. The rape elements come across as more gross and sensationalist than anything else, and the homophobia just comes across as awkward and is only frightening if you are homophobic.
This book falls in line with the piles of moralizing horror wherein people are punished for moral lapses (as defined by the author).
The ultimate reveal fell utterly flat. It felt like we were given an obvious answer to a question we never asked.
In the past I have never understood when women complain about how male writers describe women. But Oh. My. Gosh! I clearly have just been lucky in my book choices! This book had my eye’s rolling into the roof with the hyper-sexualized descriptions of women (and, notably, never men). Except for the possibly-lesbian woman who was described as looking very masculine - so he didn’t miss the opportunity to feed into those tired stereotypes.
He also REALLY overused the word “hissing.”
In short, this book felt much more gross than it felt frightening.
I agree with a reviewer on Goodreads that this book reads more like a perverse straight male fantasy than a work of horror.
