SYNOPSIS
'As nearly perfect a haunted-house tale as I have ever read' - Stephen King
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.

Boa leitura
Carolina S.
Em geral gostei da história, no entanto é um inglês mais datado, uma vez que o livro já foi escrito há bastantes anos. Apesar disso, gostei de como a história se desenrolou e conseguiu transmitir o que as personagens sentiam. É bastante diferente da série, para quem a conhece. Vale a pena ler, tendo em conta que o enredo não é bem igual.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Shirley Jackson
Shirley Jackson (1916–1965) é considerada uma das mais influentes escritoras norte-americanas. Herdeira da grande tradição do gótico americano, iniciada com Edgar Allan Poe, teve uma vida curta, deixando, porém, uma obra que a consolidou como uma das grandes personalidades literárias do século XX. Obteve imediato êxito e fama com a publicação, em 1948, do conto A Lotaria, que, à época, dividiu opiniões e suscitou acesas polémicas. Ao todo, escreveu cinquenta e cinco contos; e, da sua obra, destacam-se ainda as crónicas familiares Life Among the Savages e Raising Demons, bem como os romances The Sundial, A Maldição de Hill House, adaptado várias vezes para cinema e televisão, e Sempre Vivemos no Castelo, último livro da autora, publicado em 1962.
