Nightmare House - A Novel of Haunting (The Harrow Series)
Description
THE BIRTHPLACE OF NIGHTMARES...
There are places that hold in the traces of evil, houses that become legendary for the mysteries and secrets within their walls.
Harrow is one such house.
"Clegg's stories can chill the spine so effectively that the reader should keep paramedics on standby."
— Dean Koontz
AN UNQUIET GRAVE...
Psychic manifestations, poltergeist activity, hallucinations, and other residue of terror have all been documented in Harrow. It is a place of paranormal nightmare.
It has been called Nightmare House.
A NEST OF RESTLESS SPIRITS...
When Ethan Gravesend arrives to inherit Nightmare House, he does not suspect the horror that awaits him -- the nightmare of the woman trapped within the walls of the house, or the endless crying of an unseen child.
Nightmare House is the first novel in the Harrow series, four supernatural horror novels detailing the history of the most haunted mansion along the Hudson Valley.
AUTHOR NOTE
Although the Harrow novels are a series, they may be read out of order, since each novel is fairly independent of the one previous. Each Harrow novel centers around a different time period in Harrow House's haunted history.
THE HARROW SERIES
Book 1, Nightmare House - an old-fashioned horror tale.
Book 2, Mischief - a coming-of-age tale of mystery and ghosts.
Book 3, The Infinite - psychic investigators take on Harrow.
Book 4, The Abandoned -- an all-out gore-fest of a horror novel. Not for the faint of heart. Mayhem and horror.
Prequel Novellas, which are not set at Harrow but deal with two of the major influences on the house and its hauntings:
The Necromancer - set in the 1800s, this is the story of the young Justin Gravesend and his initiation into a terrifying mystery cult.
Isis - set right at the end of the 1800s, the story of the young Iris Villiers when she pays a terrible price for someone she loves.
"Douglas Clegg knows exactly what scares us, and he knows just how to twist those fears into hair-raising chills..." - Tess Gerritsen, New York Times bestselling author of the Rizzoli & Isles series.
