A review by nancyadelman
The Killing Room by John Manning

3.0

This is a horror novel about a wealthy New England family living with a curse. Every 10 years, the Young family holds a lottery to decide who spends the night in a haunted room of the family's mansion. With very few exceptions, most people are dead by the following morning. This year, the family has decided to hire Carolyn, a paranormal investigator to see if she can prevent the death of one of their own. This story involves ghosts, a zombie, an unrequited love, and a curse. I am giving this book three stars because there were some grammatical and spelling errors which I feel should have been caught by an editor. It's a good story, though it does turn into a bit of a slasher novel near the end.
