About this listen

Felix Allsey is a travel writer with a keen eye for the paranormal, and he's carved out a unique, if only slightly lucrative, niche for himself in nonfiction; he writes travelogues of the country's most haunted places, after haunting them himself.

When he convinces the owner of the infamous Rotterdam Mansion to let him stay on the premises for two weeks, he believes he's finally found the location that will bring him a best seller. As with his other gigs, he sets rules for himself: no leaving the house for any reason, refrain from outside contact, and sleep during the day.

When Thomas Ruth, Felix's oldest friend and fellow horror film obsessive, joins him on the project, the two dance around a recent and unspeakably painful rough patch in their friendship, but eventually fall into their old rhythms of dark humor and movie trivia. That's when things start going wrong: screams from upstairs, figures in the thresholds, and more than what should be in any basement. Felix realizes the book he's writing, and his very state of mind, is tilting from nonfiction into all-out horror, and the shocking climax answers a question that's been staring these men in the face all along: In Rotter House, who's haunting who?

Twisty, Spooky and Bone Chilling!

I loved this one so much. J W Acker has swiftly become my favourite in the horror genre. His spine-tinging prose flow with a purposeful pace, keeping the story going and your interest piqued.

I enjoyed the narration; it felt fitting with the main characters energy. I'm not saying anything requiring the plot, as it's too good to spoil. If you're a "go in blind and along for the ride" reader like me, you'll love this one!

A 5 Star read for spooky season!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

surprised this was free. a gem worth digging for

enjoyed this thoroughly, nice take on the haunted house story. it felt grounded with its reminiscences of classic works of horror fiction and movies, moments of trivia and calling out tropes were carpet bombed at all the right moments.., helped me get through a few long days at work.
personally I thought that the narrator's voice matched well with the character's demeanor. decent!

Terrible

Slow start is as such a good thing in haunted house tales. This one is a no start. It’s so dull and boring. All the author wants to do is to show their knowledge of horror films. Yes, there is a “reveal” in the end. But by that point you don’t care at all because you are utterly bored.

A Love Letter to Horror

Foremost, this book is an exploration of the horror genre (and the troups) which just happens to be set inside a haunted house. If that premise intrigued you, you'll enjoy this story. The narrator does an awesome job, and some of the twists/turns genuinely surprised me.

No redeeming qualities.

This is a terrible book, badly written and horrendously performed. An absolute waste of time.
