If I could give this book 10 stars I would, and it is worth every star you can vote. From the first page to the very last, I was on the edge of my seat, I bit my fingernails and read long into several nights. This story is just fantastic. BRILLIANT! It is now my 2nd fav book EVER! Has a few bloody scenes and it does involve children. If you are sensitive to that, it isn't for you. Not that I thought it was ok, but it helps to read just what happened to the orphans who came to Crickley Hall, to know what became of them. The terror they had to endure. This is James Herbert's best in my opinion. If you love horror, or ghost stories, you must own this book! I am cringing to repost it after buying it from PBS, I debated keeping it, but there are no other copies, so I shall post it and give someone else a few nights of nail biting.
