This is a tale of a haunted house In Japan. This house eats peoplebecause it’s fed people. Mainly young women who’ve lost their love. In modern times a group of young adults decide to have a haunted wedding. Oh yeah and the wedding is a spur of the moment surprise. Well they’re all going to be really surprised when not everybody survives to the “I do”. This was a short Gothic read for the holidays that was quite interesting but not really long enough to build the story. Personally I think the cover is better than the story. I enjoyed the story but didn’t find it spooky or haunting or scary. Maybe for newcomers or people who don’t need horror very often this would be a great jumping in novel. A book for people who like the haunting of hill house. But if you are a horror lover you might find this book lacking. But for something short to pass the time away it works.
