Miriel Ashenhurst: A DEVIL IN MY HOUSE (Horror), Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

In A Devil in My House, Lily Hawthorne's life takes a horrifying turn when she moves into her late grandmother's old house, a place she once thought of as a sanctuary. After inheriting the property in a small, quiet town, Lily hopes to find peace and start fresh after the loss of her mother. But from the moment she steps through the front door, something feels wrong. The house is cold, oppressive, and the air is thick with a sense of dread. At first, she dismisses the strange sounds-creaking floors, whispers in the night-as the normal quirks of an old home. But when objects begin to move on their own and shadows appear in the corners of her vision, Lily realizes that this house is not just haunted; it is possessed.

As the terrifying manifestations grow stronger, Lily begins to uncover the house's dark history. Her grandmother had always warned her of the evil that lurked within its walls, but Lily never took those warnings seriously. Now, desperate for answers, she discovers that her grandmother had been battling a demonic presence for years, trying to keep it trapped in the house. The demon, bound to the house by an ancient ritual, seeks to break free and claim Lily as its own. As Lily delves deeper into the past, she learns that her bloodline is tied to this malevolent force-her ancestors had made a pact with the devil to gain power, and now the demon is coming to collect its due.

The more Lily fights to rid herself of the demon, the more she is drawn into its grasp. The entity is powerful and manipulative, using her deepest fears and darkest memories against her. As the boundaries between the living and the supernatural collapse, Lily must confront the truth about her family's past and her own connection to the evil that resides in the house. With no one else to turn to, she must rely on an unlikely ally-a local priest with a troubled history of his own-who has his own reasons for wanting to defeat the demon. But as they work together to break the curse, Lily realizes that the true horror may not be the devil in her house, but the dark legacy of her family that she can never escape. A Devil in My House is a chilling tale of possession, family secrets, and the desperate fight for survival against an ancient evil that refuses to stay buried.
