This was a quick little haunted house book. It takes a little too long to get started, I noticed a few annoying typos, and the Damien character did not work for me but overall I had fun.

Over-look the editing errors and enjoy this quick read horror romp for what it is - a delightfully, horribly weird story about a house

that just wants to be loved

. Real talk though, Damien alone gives this book is 4th star - I really dug his character.

It started as an interesting read, but went stale pretty quickly for me. Was a fun homage to the haunted house story, and I enjoyed a lot of the subverting of the genre. Overall, felt like it was worth the read so I'd recommend it, especially since it's so short.
