About the book: 2019 / First published in 1959, Shirley Jackson's novel The Haunting of Hill House was immediately recognized as an example of a mystical thriller. The popularity of the book was secured by two film adaptations - by Robert Wise (1963) and Jan De Bont with the participation of Steven Spielberg (1999). And now the cult novel has inspired a Netflix series of the same name. An old mansion on a hill brings nothing but misfortune to its inhabitants. No one risks living here, let alone staying overnight - they say Hill House has become a haven of ghosts. But one day the silence of the house is disturbed by a noisy company: Dr. Montague, a paranormal investigator; Theodora, his carefree assistant; Elinor, a fragile girl, familiar with poltergeists firsthand; and Luke, the future heir to Hill House. No one even suspects what a nightmare their trip will turn out to be... The collection also includes the novel “We Live in the Castle” - a psychological thriller about secret wars inside one human soul.
