As the daughter of spiritualists, Mara's childhood was filled with séances and scam mediums. Now she's ready to start over with her fiancé, Neil, far away from the superstitions she's learned to loathe, but her past isn't willing to let her go so easily. And neither is Blackwood House.

When Mara and Neil purchased the derelict property, they were warned that ever since the murder of its original owner, things had changed. Strange shadows stalk the halls. Doors creak open by themselves. Voices whisper in the night. And watchful eyes follow her every move. But Mara's convinced she can't possibly be in danger. She doesn't believe in ghost stories, and she didn't buy a haunted house; it's just not possible.

Because ghosts aren't real, are they?

I am half way through. The storyline good the narration is good. Not sure if it's the writer's intention but Mara the main character is Literally the dumbest bitch that ever lived. I can't stand her and want to punch her in the face lol. Her boyfriend Neil is so amazing. I haven't finished yet but I'm praying Mara dies and Neil can move on and find a women he deserves. If you can stand how much you will hate her lol the book is interesting and has kept me listening even through Maras dumb attitude and bad choices.

I hate Mara

I really appreciated the character work Coates puts into her writing.
I can imagine this whole book because she is so descriptive.... I'd love to see this story adapted into a film (with the right director, of course)

This is one of Coates’s creepier books. I really thought I had things worked out, but was shocked by the twist!! Coates never disappoints and I can’t get enough of her stories! I love listening to these stories on audio, it makes them creepier.

Very Creepy!!

Another amazing story

I didn’t finish this. I know it’s fiction, and a ghost story, but I can only suspend disbelief so much. And I didn’t like the characters. It’s hard to enjoy a book when you not only don’t care about the characters but actively dislike them.

I don’t like the characters

I liked the book, I was expecting to be scared. But i wasn’t. It was obvious that she was trying to escape her past so much and that it would come back to haunt her.

Old house

I love books where a skeptic becomes a believer, but in this book, despite seeing apparitions and poltergeist right before her eyes, the main character insists that she has an intruder in her house. That would have been cute for two or three chapters, but it goes on and on and on. I was 2/3 of the way through, but had to get away from the nonsensical path this book was taking.

Also, this should have been marketed to middle schoolers. There is not a swearword in the entire book. Not that I mind, but it’s just not the reality for adults. The performance was the best thing about the book, but it would have been better with a Brit at the wheel. That way boots and torches and buildings instead of trunks and flashlights and houses would have made more sense.

Try as I might, I just can’t finish!

I was so taken in at the beginning that I put everything aside and listened to it all day ! It’s so fun to plunge into the story and watch it grow. Characters really fleshed out and you’re hooked! Narration was a perfect fit I’ll revisit this book a lot

Love this book!!
