Troy and his family had fallen on hard times because it was the depression era and they moved into this very old farmhouse that had nothing around it except fields and one big old tree in the middle of a field. Troy decides to check out this tree and gets more than he bargains for.
A good ghost/horror story will give the reader feelings of dread, goosebumps that run up and down your arms and make your heart jump into your throat all while reading it. This one did all of those for me and it made me wonder about the trees right outside my house. It's a good short story that brings the reader right to the edge of their seat wondering what will happen next.
I give it two stars because I can tell the author tried, but the book was just so predictable and kind of silly in my opinion. I was hoping for a good yet short ghost story. But in the last twenty or so pages of this book I was looking forward to the ending, and it felt like it would never come.
Very well written. Great short story to read during the Fall/ Halloween season. Reading it during the daytime hours gave me the shivers. I can only imagine what it would do reading it on a dark stormy night
The book was really a short story. It was written along the lines of Edgar Allan Poe in some ways. I was disappointed with the fact that it was written with no facts laid out. It could be fiction for all we know. But it was a quick read and reminded me of a movie where a true crime writer moves his family into a house where the previous family died by hanging from the big oak in the back yard. I can't imagine it to be circumstantial.
There was no story here. No plot just a waste of time and money. I read a lot and this was about the worse "book" I have every read. I would have given it a 0 rather than a 1 star if I had been given the option.
This story was an entertaining short read, especially if you like supernatural mysteries. The on!my bad thing is that you want the story to keep going.
