Description In Pursuance Of Books Spook House (Harmony, Indiana #3)
There are some places in this world that go far beyond any normal definition of “haunted.” These places are so evil, so diabolical, that they become gateways to Hell itself. The Fuller Farm is one such place.It is said that old man Fuller conducted unspeakable acts, blood rituals and human sacrifices, all in an attempt to gain the ultimate knowledge, the ultimate power. And then, he was killed–horribly murdered on his own lands, leaving the house to stand as a vacant monument to his wickedness. But once a door is opened, it can never really be closed.
Now, the stars are right. The gateway is ready to once more unleash unspeakable horror upon the town of Harmony, Indiana. And this will be one Halloween that they will never forget!

The thing that drew me to this book, was the fantastic art on the cover. I am glad that I took the chance to read Spook House. This is the third book in the Harmony series. I have not read the other two books, but this book can stand alone by itself. Spook House is a very creepy story with plenty of blood and guts. The book includes stranger looking monsters that live in this old haunted house. The ancient evil that lies within the Fuller House walls keeps building and building until the storyMichael West's best book! If there is one thing about Michael's books is the best parts are usually in the 1st 3/4 of the book which is just a small disappointment for me being that I have yet to read anything that was not great. Spook House however builds and builds the suspense till the very last page.
Set in my fictional town of Harmony, Indiana, many have called this novel my best work to date. I am quite proud of it. And seeing Robby Miller (The Wide Game, Cinema of Shadows) interact with Earl Preston (Poseidon's Children) is a ton of fun!
4.5 stars, rounded up for the fantastic cover work! (That is the first time I've ever rounded up for that)!Harmony, Indiana. This is Book 3 that takes place in this local, where the veil between worlds seems unusually thin. I enjoyed Book 2 (CINEMA OF SHADOWS), but have to say that SPOOK HOUSE was even better, IMHO. The action and atmosphere slap you in the face right from the get-go. The build up of tension, divergence into "Lovecraftian" lore, and the actual "evil" itself were extremely well
Oh yeah, Michael does it again. Writes a story that reads so visual you think youre watching the movie. A very creepy movie flooded with a mixed bag of characters, serial killers and bizarre monsters.From the beginning theres a scene that gave me the willies. Guess Ive seen too many horror movies, but that spider dog. Oh, man. From that scene on I was prepared for things to get crazier. Thats what the author does so well. Uses his talent for writing to set your nerves on edge and strings you
I was really into this book. I will most likely pick up the other Harmony books by Mr West since it was such a fun read & it's sadly a rarity to stumble across such an original and genuinely engaging horror story.
"Spook House" is a refreshing dose of "small town" horror at it's best. This is a story that brings to mind classics such as "Children of the Corn" and "Pet Cemetery". Michael West does a wonderful job of blending just enough lore and magic into his beasties to make them seem authentically otherworldly; without overwhelming the reader with a laborious back-story as to their who's and why's. This gives the reader a chance to fill in those blanks in his or her own mind, elevating him or her from
