The house where death lives  Cover Image Book Book

The house where death lives / edited by Alex Brown.

Summary:

"A dance to the death. A girl who's just as monstrous as H.H. Holmes. A hallway that's constantly changing--and hungry. All of these stories exist in the same place--within the frame of a particular house that isn't bound by the laws of time and space. Following in the footsteps of dark/horror-filled YA anthologies like His Hideous Heart and Slasher Girls and Monster Boys, and Netflix's ground-breaking adaptation of The Haunting of Hill House, this YA speculative fiction anthology explores how the permanence of a home can become a space of transition and change for both the inhabitants and the creatures who haunt them. Each story in the anthology will focus on a different room in the house and feature unique takes on monsters from a wide array of cultural traditions. Whether it's a demonic Trickster, a water-loving Rusalka, or a horrifying, baby-imitating Tiyanak, there's bound to be something sinister lurking in the shadows."--Provided by publisher.
