Description
How to Build a Haunted House : The History of a Cultural Obsession by Caitlin Blackwell BainesDo you have what it takes to cross the threshold? Crumbling turrets, crenelated walls, creaking floorboards. We all know a haunted house when we see or feel one. That creeping sense of wrongness. An icy shiver stealing down the spine. But why do certain structures set this super sensory alarm bell jangling, while others leave us unmoved? Can a house be purpose built to be haunted? And does a building need a bloody legacy to set the skin tingling?
