Jay Anson does it again!

I remember reading the Amityville Horror back in high school,and I enjoyed it thoroughly.Years later down the road I was in a old book-store in the far back corner in a stack of dusty,old books.Since the first time I read 666,I realized that Anson not only could make a supposed 'non-fiction'(let's be honest,the Lutz family confessed to making the events that occured in the house a complete hoax but the murders are true and the history of the property has never been actually confirmed).Anyways,this being a fictional novel by Anson it's a true masterpiece and it's a shame his writing career was so shortly lived.This novel actually takes the story of an evil house up a few notches!

Original and Terrifying

666~ That was the number on the old house that suddenly appeared on Sunset Brook Lane.Inside, a red light flickers from an unseen source. Inside, mocking figures stare down from the windows in a grotesque mimicry of bloody horrors. Inside, an ancient supernatural relic waits for human hands to touch it, for human eyes to see it's diabolical visions. For this is no ordinary house. This is a house that appears and disappears from time to time, place to place, to haunt the lives of the innocent. A house where the same bloody, dreadful, eternal crime occurs again and again, bringing its victims to the brink of Hell, to the hands of the Devil himself. And for Keith and Jennifer Olsen, it's door has just swung open...TERRIFYING AND ORIGINAL HORROR

One of the most terrifying books I have ever read!

For some reason this novel (by the author of that notorious hoax The Amityville Horror) has been almost forgotten. I don't see why! I read the first few chapters in bed at night (!) and I swore I would never read it in the dark AGAIN! Mr. Anson remembers a cruicial element that most modern horror authors forget: shear unadulterated TERROR!
