She is calling upon the house, the "grand house," and requesting she be allowed through its doors, through its walls. In the midst of this chanting, she opens her eyes at half-mast and reaches out for the glass orb before her on the table. She looks different, not all all herself, younger perhaps, yet frozen in time. Again a great gust of cold fills the room and runs up my legs. That glass orb begins to glow -- I swear it! -- and the tendrils of light like a goo, climbs up out it and stretch for the ceiling. At once, the candles are extinguished by this wind, the only light from the swirling blue and green tendrils overhead and that glowing specimen of glass held between her withered hands. I think of my daughter.

Sounds like my kind of book.
ReplyDeleteIt mentions Rose Red...is it connected to Stephen King's Rose Red?
Wow! Great teaser. I haven't read horror in a very long time. I have Stephen King's Just After Sunset in my TBR pile. Here's my teaser:
