William Martens always dreamed of leaving Syracuse, the blue-collar town where he was born and raised. When his widowed grandfather, Isaiah, invites him to live in his mansion and attend nearby Cornell University in Ithaca, William eagerly accepts the opportunity.

However, strange events begin to unfold in his grandfather’s mansion. During his first visit, William notices a young boy appearing in an upstairs window, but he dismisses it as a trick of his imagination. This is just the beginning, as he soon experiences multiple sightings of ghostly children who whisper warnings, faucets that run with blood, and a mysterious mirror that seems to harbor an evil spirit. These occurrences eventually drive William away.

Years later, he inherits the mansion and returns with his family, but the ghosts have not vanished. They bear a striking resemblance to William’s own family. He uncovers a horrifying truth as he investigates clues about the mansion’s previous inhabitants. As William becomes increasingly entranced by the dark forces within the house, he must confront whether he can break the curse before history repeats itself.

Love it

I love supernatural and paranormal books. Although I’m not a fan of the AI narrator.

Great story, bad reading

The story was really well done and kept me interested. However, the AI reading was really bad

how the ghost were there to protect the family's

I loved the whole story. it kept me wanting to hear more. I listened to the whole thing in 3 days

Paranormal with an interesting twist!

If you are into the paranormal, this is a story for you. And interesting account of family life filled with fictional history that intertwines in horrifying fashion. All leading us up to a surprising twist at the end --with a solution of girl power.

interesting!
