What Moves the Dead by T. Kingfisher

4.0

A perfect spooky read. This retelling of Poe’s “The Fall of The House of Usher” is an atomospheric, gothic read sure to haunt your dreams.

When Alex Easton receives word that an old childhood friend has fallen ill, they rush to the old manor of The Ushers. Alex finds the manor in rough shape. Odd things are happening. Both inside and outside the house.

This was a quick read filled with some terrifying moments. I may see some hares in my dreams tonight. Mushroom horror seems to be a rising trend at the moment and I’m all for it.

If you enjoyed Mexican Gothic, you’ll enjoy What Moves The Dead.
