This book has a good spooky vibe, and I love the creepy haunted mansion-like setting. I prefer paranormal type stories and this one breaches beyond that more into the monster realm, which is not as scary to me. I preferred another book I read by the author that was much more scary. The plot line is still interesting with a spooky mystery that gets solved and sweet ending. But if looking for more spine tingling chills, I personally don’t think this one is as scary as another I read.
