A Novel

Quotes

"A delightful twist on both the haunted house and beach-read genres, Turn Off The Light will keep you guessing, turning pages, and cheering on the heroines until the very end!"—Carissa Orlando, author of The September House

"Part thriller, part supernatural tale, Turn Off the Light upends everything you think you know about ghost stories. Jacquie Walters shows us how the past, present and future are entwined, how a house can hold memories, and how it’s possible for two women, centuries apart, to save each other. A haunting and unforgettable read!”—Jennifer McMahon, author of My Darling Girl

“A wonderfully written thriller.”—Daisy Pearce, author of Something in the Walls

“Dark, smart, and hypnotic, Walters’ sophomore novel is its own kind of enchantment. Turn Off the Light slips between centuries with the assurance of a writer in full command, from a contemporary haunting to a 1600s witchy fever dream. A spiritual successor to The Haunting of Hill House, it delivers that same slow-creeping dread that nestles right under your skin. If garbage disposals didn’t scare you before, they’re about to.”—Stephanie Wrobel, author of The Hitchcock Hotel

“After her phenomenal debut Dearest, Walters delivers a visceral horror that weaves two timelines four hundred years apart into one stunning, unexpected collision. The scares hit hard, but it's the threads of humor, womanhood, and fierce female friendship that make this unforgettable.”—C. J. Cooke, author of The Last Witch

"Walters threads the past and present together with precision and dread. Turn Off the Light is a chilling, time-twisting story that crawls under your skin and stays there—unsettling, relentless, and impossible to forget!"—Marie Still, author of Bad Things Happened in This Room
