The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson is a classic psychological horror novel, which follows four people ready for The Mysterious Hill House: Dr. Montague, which is an explorer of paranormal; Eleanor Vance, a single woman with a disturbed past; Theodora, its more fiery equivalent; And Luke Sanderson, House Successor. As they spend time within its unstable walls, the group experiences strange and terrible events that blur the line between the external supernatural forces and the internal fear of the characters. The center has Eleanor, whose delicate psyche is rapidly connected to the house, causing a chilling and vague climax. The novel has investigated subjects of isolation, fear and possibility that the true horror is not in ghosts, but in the human mind.
