The Haunting of Hill House

I don't know what is wrong with me and hyped books but we're not getting along. AT ALL.
I was bored for about 50% of this book. Then, the story started to get interesting, things were happening, I was a little scared and then it ended. Literally the story ended when it got scarier.
We spend so much time learning the history of Hill House and we don't get enough time IN Hill House. Like I said before, in another disappointed review I've written today, I was more scared when I picked this up to read than I was when I finished this. I think this speaks for itself. Unfortunately, if this book had 100 pages more or so, I think this could've easily made me afraid to sleep after reading it. Just disappointed.
