Search - Darkness, Tell Us

Richard Laymon is such a great writer! This book literally raised the hair on the back of my neck for nearly the entire story! It was creepy, fun and very exciting! His writing really sucks you into the story, making the unbelievable utterly believable. It is a great, summery (the perfect book for camping!) fun.

In this book we have six college kids, Lana, Keith, Doris, Glen, Howard, and Angela, celebrating the end of their summer semester at Corie's place, their professor. They get the Ouija board game out for fun and meet a spirit named Butler. Before they know it they are sneaking off to the mountains on an adventure to look for treasure. Corie is worried about the kids after what happened to her late husband Jake last time she used the Ouija board, so she goes after the kids with Chad, her former brother in law, who just happened to show up on this particular night after disappearing many years ago. Add to the mix some romantic subplots, a few character back stories, and a sadistic madman, and you have a good read. This is not my favorite Richard Laymon, not as much sex and gore as is typical in his books, but still a good read. I would recommend it!

Not as much action as I'm used to from Mr. Laymon but I did enjoy the concept. Good reading!

I couldn't get into this book. It was very slow, not a lot of action until the last 6 chapters or so. Just really didn't care for it.

Another great Laymon book. A must read if you are a fan. I really enjoyed this one.

LAYMON AT HIS BEST.
