The Haunted
The Haunted | Bentley Little
The Perry family's new house is perfect-except for the weird behavior of the neighbors, and that odd smell coming from a dark corner in the basement. Pity no one warned the family about the house. Now it's too late. Because the darkness at the bottom of the basement stairs is rising.

Features a family who move into a haunted house and are then terrorised. Excellent stuff. Low key for a bit, but this was good.

Not very creepy or scary, unnecessary sexualised hauntings, meh ending.

LeahBergen I‘ve never read this author but I‘ve seen quite a few reviews. Do you have a fave? 3y
StillLookingForCarmenSanDiego @LeahBergen This was my first one, so not yet. 3y

RamsFan1963 I've only read two of his books, The Burning and The Walking, but I found both to be interesting in set up, nice building of the feelings of dread, then disappointed by meh endings. 3y
TheLudicReader Bummer. I have this one on my tbr shelf, too. 3y
StillLookingForCarmenSanDiego @TheLudicReader It takes a lot to satisfy me when it comes to horror. I have to dip into more extreme horror, usually. So take my reviews with a grain of salt, it is very subjective. 3y
TheLudicReader I am with you on that. I will let you know my thoughts when I get around to reading it. 3y

Book 31🎧

This one was alright. Weirdly sexual though which gave me the creeps. But I guess that was the point?😂

A family moves into a new home and each member starts to see…something…

What‘s in the basement…and what does it want with the family?

Oh how I wanted to love this book 😫! While it did have some creepy parts, they seemed to only last for a few lines before going right back into the endless pages of “I can‘t tell anyone what I‘m experiencing” or, once they do “what do we do?”. I kept waiting for some sort of big showdown full of terror but never really got that. And the ending was weird. I‘m much more excited about my new candle from my bestie who lives in NC 😍. 🌟🌟🌟

Ohhhh boy this was scary to me, but I scare easily. I love those scary books that heighten your sense of uneasiness unknowingly until your like WHAAAAAT. The novel had a perfect mixture of story and horror. My toes were twitching by chapter 8. #BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks #Horror

MeesesPieces @BethM no I don‘t have the books! I already started reading The Haunting last night and a couple chapters in I feel it‘s going to get creepy! I can already tell it will be a favorite. I had R.L. Stines Fear Street growing up so I‘m so excited to read this one. Makes me feel young again and that I should be listening for my moms footsteps coming down the hall so I can pretend to be asleep 🤣🤣 Thanks so much!! 4y

So everyone is putting up pics and talking about this book on the Bentley Little Instagram. I was impressed with this one. This book read just like watching a horror movie. Had a very "stranger Things/poltergeist" feel to it. I would definitely recommend it, one of his best!

Started this a few days ago. Maybe it's just me, and I am probably just old school in this, but I am having a hard time picturing a haunted house in New Mexico 🤔. Otherwise, I am loving it!

I forgot how much I enjoyed Bentley Little. This gem starts out as a typical ghost story and then all hell breaks loose.

While I enjoyed certain aspects of this book, and it was quite disturbing in some places, overall I felt it was a bit disjointed and not as scary as it could have been. Still, I‘m glad I got to read my first Bentley Little book and I look forward to reading more!

P.S. I do not have a zebra-striped kitty; Scarlett is in her favorite morning spot in front of the window. 😁

🌟🌟🌟🌟 4/5 I enjoyed this book. It is definitely creepy and the perfect “i need a scare read”. I did not lose sleep over it or became scared. The only 2 complaints i have is that they took too long to explain what/who “Miles” was/is and i did not like the ending too much but im not sure how i was expecting it to end.

BibliophileMomma The ending was weird with the dad don‘t you think? 7y
Captivatedbybooks @Tiffy_Reads YES!!!! I‘ll post my comment below cause im not sure if i tag it for spoiler alert if it will still notify you i replied 7y
Captivatedbybooks I mean i wasnt sure how i wanted it to end but it‘s just weird. And almost half ass. Like i get he was able to do it because he was deep down good guy but i found it weird how he almost insinuated that James would go back to live at the house right?! 7y
