The House on the Hill (English Ghost Stories)

Can a house be evil? A telegram Vince Ransome receives makes him wonder.

The Martins stand on the brow of a hill, wreathed in mystery. If a house could choose solitude, perhaps that house did. Or perhaps it was the choice of its last owner, who died mysteriously in a fire fifty years ago.

A boy witnessed it. Vince Ransome did he also witness the deaths of each owner of the house since it was built over a hundred years ago? If so, what is he? A ghost, maybe. And now, Vince’s sister owns the house.

The House on the Hill is an English ghost story set in 1930, in the same vein as A Woman in Black.
