Gli omicidi della famiglia Hope sconvolsero la costa del Maine in una notte del 1929. Sebbene la maggior parte delle persone ritenesse responsabile la diciassettenne Lenora Hope, la polizia non è mai riuscita a dimostrarlo. A parte la sua smentita dopo gli omicidi, non ne ha mai più parlato pubblicamente, né è mai più uscita da Hope’s End, la casa sulla scogliera dove avvenne il massacro. È il 1983 e l’assistente domiciliare Kit McDeere arriva alla villa per occuparsi di Lenora, sulla settantina e costretta su una sedia a rotelle.

In una zona tranquilla di Tokyo, una coppia che sta per avere il primo figlio si imbatte in una casa in vendita. A prima vista, sembra quasi perfetta: abbastanza nuova, vicina a una stazione ferroviaria e a un piccolo bosco. Ma qualcosa nella pianta non li convince. Cercando spiegazioni, i potenziali acquirenti si rivolgono a uno scrittore esperto di occulto che, aiutato da un architetto, scopre presto altre stranezze della planimetria: doppie porte, ambienti senza finestre, camere con assurde disposizioni rivelano un quadro terrificante.

Mi chiamo Pietro Gerber ma qui a Firenze, dove vivo da quando sono nato, tutti mi conoscono come l'addormentatore di bambini.

Da troppo tempo.

Venticinque anni fa, lei e i suoi genitori, Ewan e Jess, si trasferirono a Baneberry Hall, una sconfinata tenuta vittoriana nei boschi del Vermont. Trascorsero lì venti giorni prima di fuggire nel cuore della notte, un calvario che Ewan raccontò in seguito in un libro di saggistica intitolato "La casa degli orrori". La sua storia di eventi spettrali e incontri con spiriti maligni diventò un fenomeno mondiale, rivaleggiando con Orrore ad Amityville in popolarità e scetticismo.

Over three hundred lives were lost in Tulsa in 1921. But some stories were never laid to rest.
