Description
The Haunting of Hill House is a masterful tale of unnerving terror, first published in 1959. This deluxe edition brings together the works of Shirley Jackson, a renowned author of Gothic and psychological horror.
Four individuals arrive at Hill House, each with their own reasons for being there. Dr. Montague seeks solid evidence of a haunting, while Theodora brings a sense of lightheartedness to the group. Eleanor, a fragile young woman, is well-acquainted with poltergeists, and Luke is the future heir of the house. As they settle in, they begin to experience inexplicable phenomena, but Hill House has other plans.
This Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition features an introduction and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as an up-to-date translation. With over 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines.
