Years later, they are plagued by nightmares and the survivors return to the house to confront their darkest fears. This eerie and horrific tale is reminiscent of classic ghost stories like The Legend of Hell House and The Haunting. These addictive tales of terror and the supernatural, each with a darkly twisted ending, are some of the most satisfying and original horror stories in the past several years. The Legend of Darklore Manor is a wondrously wicked collection of dark gems that is perfect for a midnight read. —Dark Realms Magazine
