“Scary and beautifully written, imbued with the same sense of dread and inevitability as Jackson’s original, A Haunting on the Hill is quite extraordinary. It’s not pastiche, not ventriloquism. It puts me strongly in mind of a singer you love covering a song by another artist. It’s that song but now it’s being done by someone else. Remarkable.”
“If there’s a writer you can trust with this formidable task, it’s the wildly talented Elizabeth Hand. A Haunting on the Hill is an admirable successor to The Haunting of Hill House, alike in spirit but never trying to simply repeat what Shirley Jackson did in her classic novel. Creepy, tragic, and, yes, haunting.
