Book Review
Something is wrong with Hill House. Shirley Jackson's haunted house novel is the perfect mixture of supernatural and psychological horror. Eleanor Vance has spent her entire adult life as a caretaker for her mother and the invitation to visit Hill House seems like her chance to finally do something with and live her own life. Jackson really understands the human mind and that sometimes the scariest thing is to be left alone with ourselves.
