This is creepy to read on a stormy night
I have to say each chapter kept me on edge. A nice ghost story for stormy night. I even had to turn on the light outside to smoke a cigarette to smoke. I won't give spoilers, because it will give away the story. The ending shock me. I can say this that I usually don't scare easily but this one creeps me out. 5 ghost stories out of 5

Hotel Evil: Vacancies 13 - 3/5
Edited by Chisto Healy
This book could have been great. Sadly it fell a little short for me as some parts of the story (mainly Jason’s correspondence) didn’t really make sense and I felt that they were chucked in just cause.
I loved the take on the haunted house trope - 13 cast and crew members stay at a haunted hotel, right at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. I really thought it was excellent, but then the pandemic only really served as a means to isolate the hotel.
I did like how the each chapter focused on a character, like a short film, but did find the endings quick and abrupt and left me feeling like I was missing something.
I feel that this could have been done so much better, but sadly just fell a bit short for me.

Dr. Mark Stephenson’s patient “Roger”i s a simple man who wishes for better relationships and to be a better man, but who also carries a terrible secret connected to the Sunnycrest Apartments.
It’s not the first time one of his patient’s has dealt with mental health issues relating to the address, but the screams of a child named “Alice” cause Roger to doubt the very fibers of sanity, as well as fear for his life.
Sitting in his physician’s office, Roger tells a tale of his neighbors, and a little girl he failed to help save from an unhinged parent.
When he shares his dark story with Mark, he includes details of how “Alice” is still with him, or is she?
The author crafts a recollection of Roger’s past, including his connection to his sister and alcoholic father.
He’s a man seeking redemption, but also a conflicted loner of sorts, who struggles with everyday reality, and always has. He wants to experience romantic love, like many his past holds a future at arm’s length.
The small girl he is connected to by tragedy may hold the key to his own salvation or doom.
Is the terrible secret of Alice buried within the crumbling facade of the Sunnycrest Apartments, housing troubled humans, or is the haunting Roger experiences a manifestation of his own deteriorating emotional condition?
Who is responsible for the death of Alice, if she’s actually a ghost.
Healy’s writing is polished with confident dialog. His settings are precise with enough description necessary to set a tone of dread, but it’s his characters who shine throughout the story.
The author unwinds a generational story of ties that bind and choke, ultimately resulting in a truly unexpected ending.
This is the first book in a series by Chisto Healy, who I’m guessing will continue sharing the secrets and terrors of the Sunnycrest Apartments with his readers. I for one, am dying to meet more residents or have this story continue reaching out with long and dreadful fingers.
