by Uketsu From the bestselling author of Strange Houses and Strange Pictures comes a new unsettling mystery--eleven strange buildings, each with its own twisted floor plan and eerie backstory, and a terrible secret that connects them all. A lonely hut in the woods. A murder house. A hidden chamber. A mysterious shrine. A home in flames. A nightmarish prison. After receiving multiple tips from his devoted readership, a writer fascinated by the occult put together eleven case files, each featuring its very own strange building. Each of the eleven structures in this book has a floor plan that conceals a disturbing architectural quirk: from disappearing rooms to apartments with no means of escape. Each buildings tells its own chilling story. And each is part of a grander puzzle. Look closely . . . and you'll see that everything is connected. All leading to a revelation so horrifying you won't want to believe it. |
