A mix of American Horror Murder House, The Haunting of Hill House and Winchester.  Victorian mansion full of all the Wakefield family’s ancestors. Two sisters move back in with their mother and the ghosts of all the people before them including their father who killed himself in the one room that will not open. Then Sam starts to see ghosts from the future and things take an even more horrific turn.  
This book must be turned into a movie. The formula is perfect. It took me longer than it should have to finish because I would not read it if I was home alone. “There was always something familiar about the old woman with the X for eyes” 😳
