The Haunting of Hill House
By Shirley Hackson
⭐️⭐️
Hill House stood abandoned six miles off the road. Four people came to learn its secrets. But, Hill House, stood holding darkness within. Whoever walked there, walked alone.
This has been on my tbr forever and yay I finally got round to it. I was expecting more I found one little part a bit eerie but other than that it was spooky or creepy or scary. I like watching the characters change but it just wasn’t enough! A classic it may be but just didn’t do it for me especially when it’s classed as a classic horror!

The Woman in Black
By Susan Hill
⭐️⭐️
"The Woman in Black" tells haunting testimony of a young solicitor, Arther Kipps, who records in detail the nightmarish events of his stay in a house on a marsh in northern England, and the terrible events that were to alter his life forever.
I have never taken so long to read such a short book! I was so bored and disappointed in it. I think it’s one of those books you hear so much about that you go in with high expectations and unfortunately I found it lacking. At least it’s one of those must reads ticked off!
