What was it like? Living in that house.
Maggie Holt is used to such questions. Twenty-five years ago she and her parents Ewan and Jess moved into a rambling Victorian estate called Baneberry Hall. They spent three weeks there before fleeing in the dead of night an ordeal Ewan later recounted in a memoir called House of Horrors. His tale of ghostly happenings and encounters with malevolent spirits became a worldwide phenomenon.
Now Maggie has inherited Baneberry Hall after her fathers death. She was too young to remember any of the events mentioned in her fathers book. But she doesnt believe a word of it. Ghosts after all dont exist.
But when she returns to Baneberry Hall to prepare it for sale her homecoming is anything but warm. People from the pages of her fathers book lurk in the shadows and locals arent thrilled that their small town has been made infamous. Even more unnerving is Baneberry Hall itself - a place that hints of dark deeds and unexplained happenings.
As the days pass Maggie begins to believe that what her father wrote was more fact than fiction. That either way someone - or something - doesnt want her here. And that she might be in danger all over again . . .
