The Inn

When a young couple tries to resurrect a ramshackle B&B, a terrifying evil is awakened in this “deliciously creepy thriller” (New York Times–bestselling author Kevin O’Brien).

For Jack and Annabel Devlin, inheriting an old bed and breakfast in western Massachusetts seems like a perfect chance to start over. But Annabel’s first impressions of the Blue Boy Inn don’t ease her nerves. Locals whisper about its long history of murders and mysterious disappearances. And everything about the gloomy Victorian draws Annabel back into childhood nightmares . . .

Soon Annabel hears noises within the walls and glimpses something—or things—scurrying in the shadows. The locked attic, the bricked-up fireplace . . . for years they’ve helped keep a ravenous evil at bay. Now Jack and Annabel’s arrival has stirred the house to life again. Debts must be paid, hungers will be satisfied, and one by one, Annabel’s worst fears are about to come true . . .
