An unsolved murder. A reluctant psychic. Hanging House never sleeps, and neither will you.

But once she loses her job in the big city, there’s only one place for her to go: back into the heart of her trauma and fears. Her childhood home.

Hanging House.

Determined to make the best of her new life, she soon realizes she can’t outrun the ghosts of her past.

She needs to face and conquer the looming darkness, or she won’t get out alive.

Fantastic Paranormal Mystery!

After losing her job, Emmie’s only choice is to go back to her long abandoned childhood home, spruce it up and get it on the market pronto! One tiny problem, her childhood home is Hanging House, aptly named for a very good, horrifying reason. I have to say that I LOVED this story. Part mystery, part thriller, part horror story and throughly enjoyable in every way! The characters are fantastic, unique, and well developed. They have a sense of reality about them that makes them endearing, some a bit quirky, some a bit uppity, some a bit awful, just like some people I’m sure we ALL know and love. The plot was very well thought out, very clear, easy to follow with a few twists (no spoilers) that I for one did not see coming. I always like to be surprised and this story accomplished that, especially in the ending and wrap up, again no spoilers! What I can say is there were awe’s and tears involved! Now the narration, that was something special. The characters were extremely well voiced, with a full and appropriate range of emotion displayed. The pacing was good and the flow was smooth. I have to say that overall, this one checked all my boxes! Five stars across the board!

COULD NOT PUT DOWN

I love a good paranormal story without the monsters and other fictional beings. This was a very good story that kept my interest peaked. Now moving on to the 2nd book.

Good story

This was a good light listen. Nothing too intense, nothing unnecessary. No sex scenes or gore so great YA type of book. Nothing too scary or spooky but very enjoyable for a light read/listen. The ending went on a bit too long and at times I found myself a bit annoyed by the narrator’s voice, sounding more like a high schooler than a 25 year old woman. Nevertheless I did enjoy the book and do recommend if you like ghost stories.

A harrowing, tragic ghost mystery

Received as an audio review copy from Story Origin, this as an honest review. This haunting, sad and intense story is brilliantly narrated by Kasi Hollowell. Since her childhood, Emmie has been able to see ghosts of dead children and is continually harassed by one dead girl seen hanging from a tree on the property. The death of her friend left a deep mark on her life that Emmie thought she could leave it all behind; only thongs didn't go the way she wanted. Coming back to the home that tormented her, Emmie finds herself once more confronting the hanging ghost girl "Alice" whom wants her gone. It's the mystery surrounding her friend "Frankie" death that she becomes embroiled in; and harrowingly discovers the truth she couldn't even imagine. Highly recommended.

Pulled me right in!

This was a very well-written, riveting story! I felt those goosebumps again; the ones you remember from being delightfully scared by a story as a child, and spend the rest of your life searching through books to find again!

Good read

The performance was good. The story kept me listening. The characters were likeable. It's your typical ghost story. Thought we could have used a bit more back story on the ghost haunting the house.
