Not sure how to feel about this one. If you're looking for a story that's dark and has some creepy isolated home and creepy basement vibes, give this one a shot. Also a HUGE emphasis on monsters and the way that people can have monstrous & evil sides to them.

I was intrigued to figure out what happened in the house and to learn how the past events led us to what was happening in the present. I was much more interested in the past timeline than I was in the present timeline, and I just wasn't very satisfied with the ending of the book in the present day. I also liked the monster club journal entries and the snippets of a book about the house woven throughout.
