Diary of a Haunting
Diary of a Haunting | M. Verano
In the tradition of Paranormal Activity and The Blair Witch Project, an American teen recounts the strange events that occur after she moves into a new—and very haunted—home with her family in this chilling diary that features photos and images of what she experienced. Letters, photographs, and a journal…all left behind in the harrowing aftermath. Following her parents’ high-profile divorce, Paige and her brother are forced to move to Idaho with their mother, and Paige doesn’t have very high hopes for her new life. The small town they’ve moved to is nothing compared to the life she left behind in LA. And the situation is made even worse by the drafty old mansion they’ve rented that’s filled with spiders and plenty of other pests that Paige can’t even bear to imagine. Pretty soon, strange things start to happen around the house—one can of ravioli becomes a dozen, unreadable words start appearing on the walls, and Paige’s little brother begins roaming the house late at night. And there’s something not right about the downstairs neighbor who seems to know a lot more than he’s letting on. Things only get creepier when she learns about the cult that conducted experimental rituals in the house almost one hundred years earlier. The more Paige investigates, the clearer it all becomes: there’s something in the house, and whatever it is…and it won’t be backing down without a fight.

The style was a little back and forth and I had a hard time figuring out if the whole book was a blog post or not. But overall, a creepy story with a twist ending I wasn't expecting.

I think this is more of a YA horror, but enjoyable nonetheless. Sixteen year old Paige, her mother and younger brother Logan move to an old house in Idaho after a bitter divorce. Told in a diary style with accompanying photograph; we follow as events turn from annoying to disturbing. 🕷🕷🕷 The ending was a little rushed, but a creepy page turner.

LeahBergen That cover is terrifying 😆 4y

Not bad! Really the only thing scary about this story is all the spider stuff but I liked the format and the end was pretty cool

A thoroughly enjoyable and fairly creepy read! Its not a book to think too hard about, and as far as the "found images" go, they didn't bother me as much as other books (seriously they can really ruin a book because most of them are so lazy and cheaply made... ?). The only complaints I have are that the ending is rushed so there are some jumps in logic to tie up the loose ends, and the end of the book seems to forget that it's a diary. ?

The duplicate chapters continue! Though this is the first one that doesn't just seem to be a vaguely​ creepy collection of random words.

"Waiting to recognize that invisible though powerful presence they are pregnant with spiritual power."

This double chapter is awesome and surprisingly creepy! ? So far the extra words I've noticed are "devil everyone forgets stone lies." Will it mean something later on?? It better!! ?

Starting my spooky reading for the Halloween Read-A-Thon! I love books that mix journals, photos, and other media.
