Deserted old houses. Is there anything scarier? The settling noises they make, creaks often sounding like painful moans. Imagine you are new to town, needing a place to call home for a few months. An apartment building, surrounded by thigh high grass, catches your attention. No renters, you find out, not for a while. But the rent is cheap. And you need a place to stay. So you stay. And then the horror starts.Utterly frightening, The House on Cooper Lane is an incredibly well-crafted horror story, thick with a palpable tension and indelible moments that will give you chills. Phipps writes like a freight train, grabbing the reader and never letting go, like a dog worrying its favorite toy. The story moves quickly, never bogging down, never letting the reader get comfortable. Spine-tingling chills await around every page.If ever there was a book you wouldn’t want to read at night while alone, it would be The House on Cooper Lane. Brilliantly written, this book is guaranteed to give you nightmares.
