Publisher's summary

Graham Masterton is one of the horror genre's most celebrated and popular writers. Now, after eight years of writing crime fiction, he is back with this terrifying novel about a haunted house on Dartmoor.

All Hallows Hall, a rambling Tudor mansion on the edge of the bleak, misty moor is not a place many would choose to live. Yet the former governor of Dartmoor Prison did just that. Now he's dead, and his estranged family is set to inherit his estate.

But when the dead man's family come to stay, the atmosphere of the moors seems to drift into every room. Floorboards creak, secret passageways echo and wind whistles in the house's famous priest hole. And then, on the morning the family decides to leave All Hallows Hall once and for all, their young son, Timmy, goes missing....

Spooky Great!

Loved it & The Narrator did an excellent job. First-time reading/listening to a story by this author and won't be my last!

Very enjoyable.

I don't usually get scared when I read stories, at least not since I was 14. This book did it! It actually had me a little scared.It was a good story a different take on haunted houses and .The story is paced well . It's a good read the kind of story that makes you want to keep going on to find out what happens. Very enjoyable.

Supernatural story, yes. Ghost story, no.

Was looking for a ghost story, but this is not one, so I was disappointed that it was under the ghost stories section on audible. I get the idea of twists, but just label the book as a supernatural tale so readers can locate the kind of story they are looking for.
That being said, the story as a supernatural story was interesting and original. Could have used some more likable characters though and perhaps characters that were a little more concerned by the situation. However, its worth a read if you are wanting something original.

Haunted house!!!

This was a true haunted house story! I loved it, all the way to the end.

I dod not like this book.

It was a huge struggle to finish this, on fact I accidentally left it playing I think and it finished without me. ao I guess I couldn't even get there bc I'm not going back to listen. the performance was good. but the actual story lacked slot for me. There were so many characters and I don't feel like any of them were developed then there were so many additional characters added in. plus I thought this was to be a scary story and it definitely wasn't. others may like it, but not I.

SO GOOD!!!!!

This book was a classic haunted house with a twist. It had everything! I loved it!!!

My First Masterton Book

How have I never heard of Graham Masterton? He has written many books over a long career. I was unfamiliar with the author and took a chance on this book. Right from the beginning I was drawn into the story and looked up Graham Masterton. I was pleased to discover there are many, many more titles to explore. Many times, it has been my experience that some authors seem to get tired out in the latter end of their careers. Their stories cease to engage and resonate. This is not the case with this story. I was taken immediately. The plot was puzzling indeed. The setting was perfectly creepy. Katherine Press did a great job of narrating the different characters. I cannot identify anything that I feel should have been done better. I will definitely be checking other titles by Masterton titles.

amusing!

I find this book very disturbing. the last hour was good that's all I got to say. of course these authors have to drag a certain issue in there, or an organization will feel all bent out of shape. that's one of the reasons i give it a low rating.

Too long for the story plot

Too long for the story plot. The novel doesn’t cover much territory and doesn’t explain itself as to how the father and kids lived in the house for years earlier.

ABSOLUTELY One Of The BEST Books

I would easily rate this as one of the top Five books I’ve had from Audible
