The Exorcist's House: Genesis (The Exorcist's House Universe Book 2)

By Crystal Lake Publishing and Nick Roberts

In chasing devils, all roads lead to Hell.


1967: A brutal murder occurs at the Weston State Hospital in West Virginia. To amateur exorcist, Merle Blatty, this shocking story rings of the occult. Fueled by a desire to avenge the deaths of his wife and son, Merle investigates the case, unknowingly stepping into a sinister web spanning decades.


1997: It's been three years since the Hill family left the nightmares of the farm behind them. Alice is off to college while Daniel and Nora are closer than ever, living in Ohio and raising their three-year-old daughter, Maren. Their high hopes for the future are quickly extinguished when they receive a call, learning of a plan by Adam, Daniel's brother, to purchase the exorcist's former property and stage an Amityville-inspired haunting to profit from the story.


By alternating past and present narratives, The Exorcist's House: Genesis is a multi-generational odyssey through Hell, giving birth to a new breed of horror.

Third and final book in the series. I enjoyed it, if you can say enjoy about this sort of horror 🤣 be ware it is a wild one. But, all in all, enjoyed the series.

Read through first one in the series, had to continue to finish it. Again. Paranormal thriller/horror. It's great if you're into that sorta thing! Spooky for sure.

If you're into supernatural thrillers/horror. This one is pretty good. It's gnarly. Very gruesome. But, good.

The Hills - Daniel, Nora, and Alice - move into a new house with a destructive, evil secret.

If you’re looking for a subtle story about demonic infestation and possession? This is NOT it. If you like your demons to be more in your face, this may be for you!

It’s well written and a smooth read. It’s a great summer read for those that like horror!

What I wished from the book was more about Merle’s “adventures”. That would have been interesting to learn more about.

This was phenomenal. The characters were relatable, I was fully immersed, watching the book as a movie playing in my head, getting creeped the f*ck out a couple times, and I couldn't put it down! I know I'm late to the game on this one, and it is part of a trilogy, but I'm still early on in my reading journey. I'm working on it! But seriously... is this getting made into a movie? When reading the scene near the end, I envisioned the Closer music video, and then not too much later, Nine Inch Nails is playing in the car on the next chapter! I want more, more, more of this!!
