The House Where It Happened
The House Where It Happened | Martina Devlin
3 posts | 2 read | 10 to read
It is 1711, and the Ulster-Scots community in a remote corner of Ireland is in turmoil. A pretty young newcomer is accusing one woman after another of witchcraft. But Ellen, the serving girl in the house where the visitor is staying, is loyal to the family - and over-fond of her master. Yet she knows that Knowehead is a house like no other. And so she watches and ponders, as a seemingly normal girl claims she is bewitched - as a - community turns against eight respectable women and as malevolent forces unleashed more than half a century earlier threaten a superstitious people beyond their understanding. Martina Devlin has fictionalised a compelling episode from history, transforming it into a spine-chilling tale.

The "it" is a series of malevolent, supposedly supernatural events which take place in a small Ulster community early in the 18th century. Set in a small peninsula called Islandmagee in what is now #NorthernIreland , this book feels eerie and claustrophobic.

Now that I have finished the book it is having more of an impact on me than while I was reading it. I live about 40 miles from where the book is set, so I plan to visit soon.

Starting this one now.

This book is set only 40 miles down the road from where I live in Northern Ireland. And over 300 years ago.

Dolly Sounds both spooky and enticing😬 7y

A great book to read at Halloween. Based on the only witch trial held in Ireland. You can feel the fear of those accused and those who could have been. Great creepy feeling to it.
