The house talks. It breathes. And its hungry.
The Kings have been in the creepy old placetheir new homefor only a few days, but theyve experienced enough terror to last a lifetime. And the mystery is growing even more baffling. Shadowy and shifting, the big house conceals doors into other worlds that blur the line between memories and dreamsand the slightest misstep can change history forever.
At least, thats if they believe the trembling old man who shows up claiming to know them. Theres a reason youre in the house, he says. As gatekeepers we must make sure only the events that are supposed to happen get through to the future.
The problem is that horrors beyond description wait on the other side of the gates. As if that wasnt enough to terrify the family, they are also menaced by sinister forces on this sidelike the dark, ancient stranger who wants them out now.
The siblings must venture beyond the gates to save their missing motherand discover how truly high the stakes have become.
If you like creepy and mysterious, this is the house for you! Every room opens a door to magic, true horror, and amazing surprises. I loved wandering around in these books. With a house of so many great, haunting stories, why would you ever want to go outside R.L. Stine, bestselling author of the Fear Street and Goosebumps Series
