Why read it?

2 authors picked A Haunting on the Hill as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Loved a bold revisit to Shirley Jackson’s Hill House. The writing was fantastic at immersing me within the unease of the house, the clash between characters and Hand’s brilliant capture of the undefinable spaces of Hill House that echoed Jackson’s but retained their own originality. A great psychological horror with all the gothic trappings but a modern setting.

Hand acquits herself well, getting us back to Jackson’s spooky manse via an ingenious narrative hook. Struggling playwright Holly Sherwin has received a development grant for her work-in-progress, The Witching Hour, and now all she needs is an inspiringly outré venue in which to write a polished draft while hosting—and drawing additional energy from—a gang of theater-savvy friends slated to become the show’s original off-Broadway cast and crew. You can imagine what location…
