Like a grand lady, the house has reigned over Harvest Street for almost a century. It's a splendid home- a sweeping veranda, ivy covered walls and spacious rooms, all within a short walk to the campus. Add to its charm the exceptionally low rent, and it's a perfect student rental. In spite of this, tenants never stay. Within weeks of settling in, they flee; whispering tales of occurrences that were first odd, then escalated to terrifying... moreLike a grand lady, the house has reigned over Harvest Street for almost a century.

A lazy vacation ratchets into terror for the young cousins. “Stay clear of that farm next door!” They break the only hard and fast rule from an indulgent Grandpa. He was young and foolish when he discovered the evil that hides behind the decrepit walls of that house. On a dare, he and two buddies crept into the farm. Only two of them lived to tell the tale. The teenage girls are bored, missing their friends back home, and sniping at each other. That is, until the night they spy a strange light in the abandoned house across the field. "Curiosity killed the cat, but that’s just an old saying. Just a little peek won’t hurt, right? No one has to know.” The evil entity knows. It’s been waiting to be released from the old Hanson house for decades. The girls are about to find out that blood is thicker than water. It’s the only way they’ll survive the horror. Reviewers have said, “Another 5 star book. The Ghosts of Hanson House is about four curious cousins who all have different personalities and their grandparents are withholding secrets. The book cover alone made me want to read it! It's what's behind the cover that is so AWESOME AND SCARY! I read it in one day.” “Book 5 in the series, although they stand alone. This author knows how to build tension and some really horrific stories.. Excellent read” “I thought the writing of this story was exceptional. The author described everything so you could not only picture the surroundings and characters, but hear the sounds as well. Haunted dolls, especially one that may have caused so many deaths, is a nightmare in itself. Though the doll wasn't part of every chapter, it remained in the background, waiting.” If you are anything like the girls, you won’t heed Grandpa’s warning! Get your copy and prepare for an eerie fright! Special Reader Bonus! LEGACY (The Mystical Veil) a full length novel is included with this book! less
