Hill’s horror novel from the 1980s is the perfect balance of ‘old school’ horror and suspense. Here we meet Arthur Kipps, a grieving young attorney sent to Crythin Gifford to take care of the last will of a recently deceased woman (who you will also meet, if you know what we mean…). This book will put you in the perfect mood for autumn, and the adrenaline rush might lead you to a few good ghost walks once you land.
