Description
This spinetingling graphic novel follows four occupants of the same house over a century, and the ghosts that haunt them all - from the author of the acclaimed graphic memoir The Times I Knew I Was Gay
In the corner of a London square stands a house whose inhabitants are young and old, local and far-flung, and living and dead....
Over the course of the twentieth century, we watch different generations of people live, love and desire in this house. There is teenage Connie, who discovers a man in the basement who is able to grant them their most secret wishes. Hedda watches a spider weave a deadly web from her sick-bed, while remembering those who've already departed. And there is the Seamstress, whose attic bedroom proves irresistible to the others - and may be a portal to another world...
Eleanor Crewes makes the haunted house tale her own in this brilliant, terrifying collection of interwoven graphic ghost stories.
