I did like this book. It does have an arguably happy ending, which I like. But by the end, I was getting rather tired of the little monster girl and the repetitive nightgown-lifting scenes and descriptions of her dirty charms. I'd give this a 5 out of 10 - it won't change your life, but you won't wish you hadn't wasted your time.

OHMAHGOSH! The books start from five different characters, and you wonder why Bentley Little has structured the book this way. AND then... the House brings them together, and not in a good way. This isn't a haunted house story, but an evil creepy house story.

Five strangers simultaneously experience terrifying nightmares and strange hallucinations. These unnerving events reacquaint each of the individuals with a childhood they would rather forget and memories long repressed. It soon becomes apparent that each of these four men and one woman once lived in identical houses--right down to the arrangement of the furniture. Each character must return to that childhood home to confront the demons of the past and liberate their souls from the shackles of despair. Reading this battle of good versus evil is a nail-biting experience.

Bentley Little has become one of my newest favorite authors. His books are very scary, but not stupid. This one is about five people who all lived in identical haunted houses when they were little. As adults, they are called back to their childhood homes to finish up some business. I loved this book!

Five strangers are about to discover that they share a dark bond. A haunted childhood. A shocking secret. A memory of the houses they lived in -each one eerily identical to the next. From the remote foothills of the west to the green lawns of sunny sububia, they are returning-to the past, to the unspeakable events they long to forget...to the house.
And their journeys are about to converge, in one terrigying challenge to confront thier nightmares-or be trapped inside them forever....

I'm a big fan of Bentley Little.Read just about all his books.With
the exception of 2.This I found to be a little hard to get into.
It was confusing and somewhat boring at times.He's done alot
better.

I've read many Bentley Little books. This one and "The Store" were my favorites. Very scary!

This was the first book by Bentley Little I could not get into. I could not get interested in it because of the story jumping around from person to person.

This was an entertaining read. Weird and ejoyably perverted.
