The Black Train by Edward Lee

4.0

This was an amazing book, very exciting and fast paced. Some of the scenes in the book was just down right gruesome. The book is very creepy and I would recommend it to any one that likes creepy books (Like me). You will not be disappointed with this one. Edward Lee is a really messed up man to even think of any of those scenes found in the book. This was a true ghost story.

The book is about a family called the Gast, there was two daughters, Penelope Gast and Mr. Gast. Mrs. Gast slept with every man but her husband. Mr. Gast was a very evil man. He killed his two daughters by burying them and then after they were dead he had them put in their room and eventually eaten by their dog, he has his wife raped nearly to death and then axed in the crotch, killed the The house slave, killed all the slaves he had, had innocent people burned and raped, and he had so much more stuff done, Mr. Gast was a very evil man. The family is said to haunt the house. Like I said, the book is extremely gruesome. Some of the scenes that was described in the book was the most horrible things that any one could ever imagine. I have always wanted to go to a haunted house or to see a ghost but the Gast house is one house I would never want to step foot in. The history of the house and knowing what happened in those rooms, would make the house scarier, but I guess that's make a haunted house a haunted house.
