Description

“Often macabre and sometimes terrifying, The Forever House is a ghastly and grim adventure.” — Grimdark
Magazine


In Rockridge, Ohio, a sinister family moves into a sleepy cul de sac. The Eldreds feed on the negative emotions of humans, creating nightmarish realms within their house to entrap their prey. Neighbors are lured into the Eldreds’ home and faced with challenges designed to heighten their darkest emotions so their inhuman captors can feed and feed well. If the humans are to have any hope of survival, they’ll have to learn to overcome their prejudices and resentments toward one another and work together. But which will prove more deadly in the end, the Eldreds . . . or each other?

Reviews

"With new twists on vampirism and the haunted house, horror fans will find this Lovecraftian terror tale of interest."

Booklist

“The horrors inside the Eldred house are spectacularly realized […] Waggoner’s tale delivers some solid scares.”

Publishers Weekly

"Fast-paced, hair-raising, and with a twist ending with enough spin to make you rethink who the real monsters are, The Forever House is the sort of phantasmagorical terror that keeps you reading through gore, grit, and grime until the very end."

The Nerd Daily

“His ability to weave the surreal with the hyper-real is his greatest talent.”
