Haunting of Rookward House
Haunting of Rookward House | Darcy Coates
3 posts | 4 read | 1 to read
She's always watching...When Guy finds the deeds to a house in his mother's attic, it seems like an incredible stroke of luck. Sure, the building hasn't been inhabited in forty years and vines strangle the age-stained walls, but Guy is convinced he can clean it up and sell it. He'd be crazy to turn down free money. Right?The house is hours from any other habitation, and Guy can't get phone reception in the old building. He decides to camp there while he does repairs. Surely nothing too bad can happen in the space of a week.But there's a reason no one lives in Rookward House, and the dilapidated rooms aren't as empty as they seem...A deranged woman tormented a family in Rookward forty years before. Now her ghost clings to the building like rot. She's bitter, obsessive, and jealous... and once Guy has moved into her house, she has no intention of ever letting him leave.

That feeling when you get to the juicy part of a ghost story...

I love the pacing of this so far!! I'm just about halfway through and I'm dying to plow through!!!

Well. It‘s entertaining enough, but the lead is super problematic in my opinion. I‘ll definitely try another Coates in the future and see if the whole thing works for me more.

Godpants He definitely was verbally abusive to Savannah, and has anger issues. Not saying that means he deserves to be “haunted” but I don‘t believe his wife would go back to him at the end. And just because he wasn‘t violent to her (never mind running her over with a car) he was abusive! He was also a creep with Tiff. And why did the family have the deed for the house? 4y

This will be my first Darcy Coates read and I‘m I love haunted house stories so I‘m hoping it‘s a hit for me so I have a big pile of them to check out.
