Description

In the 18th century, members of the Dudley family settled in the deep woods of the Dark Entry Forest in northwestern Connecticut. Only a century later, Dudleytown was a ghost town with nothing left in the encroaching forest but cellar holes. Legend has it that the Dudleys were descended from a family in England that came to a bad end and that a curse followed them to America, a curse that drove residents of the settlement to murder and suicide.

In 1989, Sandy Lawrence, fleeing her abusive boyfriend, is given the use of her friend’s house in Dark Entry, one of the few homes in the isolated forest. She is unaware of the legends about Dark Entry but soon discovers the horrifying truth—something evil is alive and well in the deep woods, something intent upon murder. What began as a peaceful retreat from her domestic troubles now becomes a terrifying fight for her life.

This was a quick read, that begins with a horrifying act in the 18th century before our unsuspecting main character heads to a house in these cursed woods to clear her head after an upsetting break up. Sandy doesn't know the stories of the spirit eater that haunts these grounds, an evil ghost that preys on souls. Not long after her arrival, she learns of the local ghost stories but it takes more than folk tales to make her a believer. I love ghost stories set in New England, as a life long resident I have always been interested in the spooky tales that abound in our small towns. Looking at this cover is like looking through my own childhood window at night, so of course I was instantly drawn to this book.
