This book legitimately scared me, it's written fantastically. I could feel myself feeling uneasy and pulling faces when I read certain bits.
Really recommend reading it, the ending is good as well!
"The Exocist's House" By Nick Roberts is a gripping paranormal thriller that will have the hairs on the back of your neck sticking up. The author's descriptive imagery really brought the story to life. This creepy tale will have you turning each page and saying just one more chapter. You will not be able to put it down. I would definitely recommend this creepy tale to anyone who enjoys a good thriller.
In the spirit of transparency, I did receive an advanced copy of this book to read and review from the publisher, Crystal Lake Publishing.
In FULL transparency, I practically BEGGED the publisher for a copy when I read the premise.
This is my first time reading work written by Nick Roberts. I will absolutely dig into his backlog and keep my eyes peeled for any future pieces.
THE EXORCIST'S HOUSE has some of my most favorite horror-related things: possession, exorcisms not sanctioned by the Catholic Church, a haunted house, the fresh start/new beginning trope and of course the family dog who is the bestest boy when it comes to protecting his family.
There was no way I was not going to love this story. I was not disappointed either. In fact, Nick Robert exceeded expectations - I honestly thought I'd exhausted the exorcism/possession tropes but this one has several original elements that leveled it up in my opinion. The first time I got surprised, I thought "Wow! That's a first!" I didn't think there would be more - but there was!
Now, this is a horror story - but did it deliver? Heck yes! I was downright terrified in places - in fact, the first night I got deep off into it, I was just reading about a certain basement scene when both my dogs sat up, one growling softly. I didn't hear whatever it was that they did and they wouldn't let it go. I finally went to the bedroom to where my husband was and he said he kept hearing a sound that sounded like someone was trying to put a key in the lock of our front door. He was sitting there watching the camera as we were talking. That messed me UP. Neither of us slept well that night.
The last 20% of the story ran me through the wringer: fear, relief, anger, surprise, bittersweet, TERROR - heck I even found religion myself! It was so well written, the story was crafted so well that even knowing the ending, I will absolutely reread this one again...just for the thrills and chills.
Excellent work - I'm looking forward to more from Nick Roberts. This kind of writing and story crafting is addicting.
