This was supposed to be a children's book, but it still has many of Barker's dark and creepy undertones.

Entertaining! Seems like a primary inspiration for Slade House or Lonely Castle in the Mirror

This book was genuinely such a great taste of the eerie and whimsical. The writing was amazing and the story felt familiar in that classic story sort of way, but also so distinct and strangely unique. Definitely will be reading more Clive Barker.
