Ghost Story by Peter Straub ★★★★☆

A dramatic image of a woman's torso in shadow the top half of her face lit in red with her eyes staring at the camera the caption says My friends and i will tear the soul from this pathetic town and crush its bare bones between our teeth
The slow burn of darkness seeping inexorably into a small town. A classic that takes it’s time to haunt you.

“Wouldn't you like to live forever? Even if you must die first? It's a good Christian bargain, after all.” 

*audible note: the narrators voice was firm and, while his talent for female voices was lacking, the male voices were distinct.

    Great review! This book was actually my first ghost story when I read it back in the day. Great classic book! I need to add it to my blog though and need to add a review on Goodreads - I just have it rated on there as I read it before joining Goodreads.
