Publisher's summary

From Ed and Lorraine Warren, the demonologists featured in The Conjuring horror films, comes the story of the most terrifying case of demonic possession in the United States. It became the basis for the hit film The Haunting in Connecticut starring Virginia Madsen. Shortly after moving into their new home, the Snedeker family is assaulted by a sinister presence that preys one-by-one on their family. Exhausting all other resources, they call up the world-renowned demonologists Ed and Lorraine Warren, who have never encountered a case as frightening as this.

No one had warned the Snedekers their new house used to be an old funeral home. Their battle with an inexplicable and savage phenomena had only just begun. What started as a simple poltergeist escalated into a full-scale war, an average American family battling the deepest, darkest forces of evil a war this family could not afford to lose.

good solid scary story

this is a great retelling of a scary story. believer or not this will entertain you and keep you thinking of things that go bump in the night

Very Spooky, Great Writing, and Terrific Narration

Okay, I'm not sure if I'm judging this book as a piece of fiction or nonfiction. If it's fiction, it gets a 3; if it's nonfiction, it gets a 4 star rating.

I'm going to keep this short, because I don't really feel like going into a lengthy review. I absolutely loved this in the way that I LOVE cheesy horror and regular horror movies. It scared the **** out of me! Since Ed and Lorraine Warren ARE real people and, from what I've read and seen, their stories are usually at least semi-factual, I'm going to go ahead and say this was "based on true events."--however, you want to interpret that. It was very freaky and I enjoyed it so much that I'll be reading another one of their books soon enough!

I've been a huge fan of Todd Haberkorn since I listened to Gregg Hurwitz's 'The Rains.' In that book, he put the voice of a teenager and below on for the whole book, but he has this great regular narrator voice. I think listening to this book has made me become even more in awe of his abilities. So, Mr. Haberkorn and the narration team (because I know there always is one) will get an A+ grade from me.

It's getting a B+ on my grading scale. Very good writing with enough terror to scare for days. The only fault I find is the ending and, as in real life, endings don't always make sense or even end. I think they could've left this book with a little more at the end.

suspenseful

I loved the book I love the narrator, he had me so into it. I was on his every word. I listen at work so it make the time go by really fast. This story is scary and Soo good. I definitely recommend this book, you won't regret it.

Loved every minute! great book!

Better than the movies, great book. Loved every minute. Will most likely listen to again

scary movie

love this book saw the movie. can't wait for the 3 other books from the same auth9.

Loved it

This wad sooo awesome. Couldn't stop listening. The story gives you just enough scare. I'm now down a rabbit hole to find out as much as I can about the family.

Cringe-worthy.

While the overall story is good and the narrator is, as always, amazing - this story kept making me cringe.

If you want a book about angry, functioning alcoholic parents who spend 80% of the book yelling at their cancer riddled kid and threatening him with physical abuse - this story is for you.

Even if you think it’s impossible

There is so much in this world that we may never understand, or have happen to us. But it does not make situations like this made up & impossible. We are surrounded by good & evil, and WE have to be alert & attentive to what our Spirit/ Gut is telling us. If we are aware of the things that we partake in, is it a positive thing or is it negative, negative actions will bring negative results. And we need to be honest with ourselves & spouses/family of what’s happening instead of trying to ignore it, then you can face Anything.

I Never Knew How Bad It Was!

I never knew exactly why the house was haunted. I was unaware how bad it was, or to the extent the demons took. Absolutely horrendous. It took a lot of brave people to try to free the house of the demons. Thank you everyone for helping this family.

Great book annoying reader

Story is excellent but could not get through a chapter due to the reader and his voice changes for each character. Returned - the book is great though.
