The Haunting of Hill House

Four seekers have arrived at the rambling old pile known as Hill House: Dr. Montague, an occult scholar looking for solid evidence of psychic phenomena; Theodora, his lovely and lighthearted assistant; Luke, the adventurous future inheritor of the estate; and Eleanor, a friendless, fragile young woman with a dark past. As they begin to cope with chilling, even horrifying occurrences beyond their control or understanding, they cannot possibly know what lies ahead. For Hill House is gathering its powers – and soon it will choose one of them to make its own.

As they spend more time in the house, strange and terrifying occurrences begin to take place, leading to psychological tension and supernatural phenomena. Shirley Jackson’s masterful writing builds a sense of dread and suspense, blurring the lines between the supernatural and the psychological. “The Haunting of Hill House” has been adapted into various films, television series, and stage productions, cementing its status as a seminal work in the horror genre.
