About this listen
Welcome to Spite House.
There's an island up in Gold Country at the northern end of Snapdragon Lake. It's named Manchester for the family that owns it, but the locals call it Spite Island. There's a single lonely mansion on that island and a group of authors have been invited to write about its ghosts and its mysteries. But the real mystery is, who will survive this luxurious but deadly retreat?
A Cursed House
Not long after the Civil War, Ruthia and Solomon Manchester bought a lonely island in northern California where they built a magnificent home and a resort that became a renowned Gilded Age getaway.
But the locals shunned the place, calling it Spite Island. They said it was cursed.
Today, only Agnes Manchester and her companion occupy the property. Having fallen on hard times, Agnes has agreed to reopen the resort on the condition that she and her ancestral ghosts are undisturbed in their private home.
Before renovations begin, she invites a group of authors to stay in the house and write about its history.
As the guests explore the secrets of the mansion, they never suspect what awaits them in the shifting shadows.
Spite House has deadly plans of its own....

We’ve all heard the disturbing tales and creepy urban legends about the decaying old building sitting on Dudley Road. But when my friends and I finally gathered up the courage to visit, we concluded they were nothing more than silly stories. We were wrong. When we left, we took something with us–and now they want it back. I’m being haunted, and they swear they won’t rest until I return it to them. I try to ignore them...but when paranormal events start terrorizing me, I know they’re dead serious. And when my friends start going missing one by one, I’m terrified that I’m next....

Now reduced to a schoolyard chant, the Hope family murders shocked the Maine coast one bloody night in 1929. While most people assume seventeen-year-old Lenora was responsible, the police were never able to prove it. Other than her denial after the killings, she has never spoken publicly about that night, nor has she set foot outside Hope’s End, the cliffside mansion where the massacre occurred. It’s now 1983, and home-health aide Kit McDeere arrives at a decaying Hope’s End to care for Lenora after her previous nurse fled in the middle of the night.

Three weeks later they fled in the dead of night, an ordeal Ewan later recounted in a nonfiction book called House of Horrors. His horror memoir of ghostly happenings and encounters with malevolent spirits became a worldwide phenomenon, rivaling The Amityville Horror in popularity — and skepticism.

Story
Nate Walker has never shied away from the hard road. Even when it meant leaving behind his family's wealth - and the fiancée who only wanted a rich man. Nothing was going to stop him from opening his own five-star restaurant.
And he was on his way, until his car broke down on a dark road in the Adirondacks, leading him right to White Caps Inn - and Frankie Moorehouse.

Story
All Hallows Hall, a rambling Tudor mansion on the edge of the bleak, misty moor is not a place many would choose to live. Yet the former governor of Dartmoor Prison did just that. Now he's dead, and his estranged family is set to inherit his estate. But when the dead man's family comes to stay, the atmosphere of the moors seems to drift into every room. Floorboards creak, secret passageways echo and wind whistles in the house's famous priest hole. And then, on the morning the family decides to leave All Hallows Hall once and for all, their young son, Timmy, goes missing.

Spite House
I really liked most of this book. There was so much going on with the ghosts and authors.The mix of personalities was good. Narration by Jamison Walker was really good.It felt a bit lackluster at the end. was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Interesting Mystery/Horror Story
First this book does not end, but is a Cliffhanger which is not nice because 2nd book not even out.
The characters in this Story are of two different types, Ones you absolutely can not stand and the ones you really like. Example: The Professor is a crud, obnoxious, pig of a man with very vulgar put downs about women. Narrator does a Excellent job with the various characters voices and the entire storyline.

Wasn't thrilled
I guess I should have read all the reviews . I didn't know this story doesn't end! I kept waiting for something to happen but all there was was alittle romance, ALOT of story telling and a few dumb ghost sightings. I kept waiting to find out who was in a certain room in the house...spoiler alert....you don't find out in this book. Gonna see if I can return it.
