Eve and Charlie have struck the deal of a lifetime. They have found a perfect fixer upper home for dirt cheap but soon Eve starts to sense that there is more to the house than they originally anticipated. Things soon take a drastic turn when a family shows up on their doorstep claiming that the father grew up in their new home. The father tugs at Eve’s heart strings stating that he would love to show his wife and children his childhood home. But Eve just can’t shake the feeling that something seems off about this family and without Charlie home she is hesitant to let them in. Throwing caution to the wind (what could possibly go wrong) Eve lets them in. What transpires next is nothing you are prepared for. Nothing is real…..everything is real…..could you survive the mystery family or the house?
Overall rating 5/5
THIS BOOK IS EVERYTHING!!!!!!!! Creepy, hair-raising, nightmarish, and shuddersome. I would suggest reading the physical copy of this book to spot all the hidden messages brilliantly hidden within the pages. Kliewer has captured the essence of creating fear and anticipation in written form that reminds me of Hitchcock or King. This book will stay with me for a long time, and I will never stop recommending this book!
