The Haunting of Hern Hall
Published by Bloodhound Books
Long ago, three innocent children played a game—and the consequences still haunt their family, in this eerie tale set in post–World War I England . . .
After the horror of the First World War, disillusioned army chaplain John Elliot arrives at Hern Hall, an isolated estate in the English countryside. Despite suffering from shellshock, John has made a promise to his friend Will, who died in the trenches while saving John’s life. A promise he’s determined to keep.
John meets Will’s sister Lucy, a beautiful, blind, and mysterious young woman, and is introduced to Will’s grieving parents, Lord and Lady Chiddingstone. But the house, shrouded by mist, seems to be tormented by some tragic past . . .
After being invited to stay at Hern Hall, he has a series of unsettling and eerie encounters—even attending a séance conducted by the infamous Madame Blanche, a spiritualist medium who Lady Chiddingstone hopes can communicate with her dead sons.
As John grows closer to the family, he uncovers more about their traumatic history, and the disturbing secrets hiding in the walls and tunnels of their great house. Is the family cursed as an ancient legend tells? And if so, can the ghosts and the living ever find peace—or are they destined to be forever haunted by death?
