At the end of a dark prairie road, nearly forgotten in the Kansas countryside, is the Finch House. For years it has remained empty, overgrown, abandoned. Soon the door will be opened for the first time in decades. But something is waiting, lurking in the shadows, anxious to meet its new guests.... When best-selling horror author Sam McGarver is invited to spend Halloween night in one of the country's most infamous haunted houses, he reluctantly agrees. At least he won't be alone; joining him are three other masters of the macabre, writers who have helped shape modern horror.

The entity they have awakened will follow them, torment them, threatening to make them a part of the bloody legacy of Kill Creek.

Justin Wainwright has been blessed with a filthy rich dad. He is able to start up a passion project, a website meant to bring new fans to the horror genre. He comes up with a sure fire way to make his project the next big thing. He invites the four most influential horror authors for an interview to be live-streamed Halloween night. However, there�s a fifth star, and the biggest. Kill Creek. It�s a house that urban legends are made of.
I ADORED this book! I got off gabbyreads� rec. but she�s right. WHY don�t more people talk about this book? This reminds me of the horror I grew up with: classic King, Shirley Jackson, Edgar Allen Poe. Where the scares come not from the gore, but what is unseen and has to be guessed. There is plenty of blood and guts to go with the psychological scares, don�t worry!! Thomas did a masterful job in character building. Each character, primary, secondary, and even the ones we never meet, are completely fleshed out. I didn�t want this book to end!!
Buy this for yourself or someone who wants classic horror. Or, if you�re twisted, get it for a budding author.

Not so much
I was really excited to read this book, because it came so highly recommended by someone whose opinions I trust and value. Well, after this one, I have to question her judgment. The book started out great, but soon it became apparent to me that the author was trying to be a young Stephen King. Think "It" meets "The Shining", only not well written.
Mr. Thomas could use an eagle-eyed editor to spot some mistakes: it's minuscule, not miniscule. Amok, not amuck. Vise, not vice. Spelling mistakes like those drive me crazy.
