The greatest haunted house story ever written—the inspiration for the hit Netflix horror series! One of The Atlantic’s Great American Novels of the Past 100 Years.

First published in 1959, Shirley Jackson's _The Haunting of Hill House_ has been hailed as a perfect work of unnerving terror. It is the story of four seekers who arrive at a notoriously unfriendly pile called Hill House: Dr. Montague, an occult scholar looking for solid evidence of a “haunting”; Theodora, his lighthearted assistant; Eleanor, a friendless, fragile young woman well acquainted with poltergeists; and Luke, the future heir of Hill House.

At first, their stay seems destined to be merely a spooky encounter with inexplicable phenomena. But Hill House is gathering its powers—and soon it will choose one of them to make its own.

For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.

**Book Club** \- I have struggled this year with bookclub. Participation is low and I have not been able to read the books by the end of the month. I am considering moving to a Yearly Recommended Reads list, shared in January, and posting the channels for all of the books for the year at once. **What are your thoughts on this?**\\

I just got hit with unexpected cat surgery (teeth extraction) and the price range is $1783-$3338. (LOL). Ordering books from my Pango, at my links here on Bindery by clicking any book below (I get a small percentage on ANY book you buy once you click through using my link, or upgrading your subscription will help with this crazy cost.

(Paid members have heard the details of this book, which is much different than anything I've published so far!) I will keep ya'll posted. I am crossing my fingers and toes to get this book (But, if not, I'll try to survive. I do have more manuscripts to read!)\\
