Synopsis

Past the rusted gates and untrimmed hedges, Hill House broods and waits Four seekers have come to the ugly, abandoned old mansion: Dr. Montague, an occult scholar looking for solid evidence of the psychic phenomenon called haunting; Theodora, his lovely and lighthearted assistant; Eleanor, a lonely, homeless girl well acquainted with poltergeists; and Luke, the adventurous future heir of Hill House. At first, their stay seems destined to be merely a spooky encounter with inexplicable noises and selfclosing doors, but Hill House is gathering its powers and will soon choose one of them to make its own.

Multi-layered literature, the type you can read over more than once and discover new symbolisim each time. Sacrey without being predicitable or resorting to blood and guts. A lot of it's chilling effect is in what's left unsaid or unexplained... just a masterfully crafted story.
