Pages : 333
Book Description
'God, it's good' STEPHEN KING On a windswept moor, an old house guards its secrets... The new standalone horror novel from 'a true master of horror.' All Hallows Hall is a rambling Tudor mansion on the edge of the bleak and misty Dartmoor. It is not a place many would choose to live. Yet the former Governer of Dartmoor Prison did just that. Now he's dead, and his children – long estranged – are set to inherit his estate. But when the dead man's family come 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 same morning the family decide to leave All Hallows Hall and never come back, their young son Timmy disappears – from inside the house. Does evil linger in the walls? Or is evil only ever found inside the minds of men? Praise for Graham Masterton: 'A true master of horror' James Herbert 'One of the most original and frightening storytellers of our time' Peter James 'A natural storyteller with a unique gift for turning the mundane into the terrifyingly real' New York Journal of Books 'This is a first-class thriller with some juicy horror touches. Mystery readers who don't know the Maguire novels should change that right now' Booklist 'One of Britain's finest horror writers' Daily Mail

Book Description
"This house is very much haunted, and will continue to be haunted for a very long time. I do believe it could be a ticking time bomb. And if that is the case, then we'll certainly be hearing from this house again." - Steve Mera BSc. Director of the Scientific Establishment of Parapsychology Keith Linder's reports of a spectacular haunting at his Bothell home became fodder for intense media attention after a well-known paranormal TV show investigated his case and came up empty. But that was really only the beginning of the story. Desperate for help, Keith contacted a team of experienced parapsychologists in England, who flew over 4,000 miles to discover the truth about the Linder house. What they found when they got there proved to be the most baffling, frustrating, and potentially terrifying case they had ever encountered. This is the true story of Steve Mera, Don Philips, and a real parapsychological investigation into America's most controversial-and perhaps most incredible-series of paranormal events.
