Helpful Score: 1

I enjoy haunted house stories, but this wasn't really all about that. A mixture of pschological history of the main character, Wiccan covens, a might-be-real ancient text controlling the Universe and a ghost don't really add up to a satisfying story for me. And I still had some questions at the end that weren't answered.

Plus the "heroine" was really a jerk in my opinion, an adulturess who neglected her two daughters pretty much to satisfy her own needs.

Not on a par with great ghost stories like The Uninvited, The Haunting of Hill House, The WOman in Black, Hell House, et al.
