Into These Walls by Ania Ahlborn

SUMMARY: 

Lucas Graham, a struggling true-crime writer facing personal and professional turmoil, sees an opportunity for a comeback when he's offered exclusive access to death row inmate Jeffrey Halcomb, a notorious cult leader and mass murderer. Halcomb contacts Lucas personally, offering insights from his maximum-security cell. Lucas moves to a farmhouse in Washington State, where the cult's atrocities occurred, to delve into the story. However, he soon realizes he's not alone, as the spirits of Halcomb's followers haunt the house, seeking eternal life as promised by their leader.

MY THOUGHTS 💭 

This book was so creepy & I loved it! It reminded me of the Jonestown Massacre and the Manson Family. I also loved the haunted house vibes. The main characters were kinda unlikable but the story was good enough that I didn’t mind that too much.
