THE MASTER OF HORROR
Disturbing. Original. Terrifying. A chilling tale of what lurks in the walls of an abandoned hospital, and perfect scary read.
In this abandoned hospital, pain lives on... and it wants revenge.
St Philomena's military hospital has been abandoned for over three years. Now Lilian Chesterfield is in charge of developing it into a luxury-housing complex.
But as soon as she and her colleagues start work in the mansion, they hear screaming from wards full of empty beds and see faces peering at them from the mullioned windows.
Lilian doesn't believe in the supernatural. But just when she's put her mind at rest by scouring the mansion from top to bottom, a warning arrives. The hospital is haunted. And it is haunted by something a thousand times more terrifying than ghosts...
Perfect for fans of The Haunting of Hill House, The Shining and The Woman in Black.
