The Ghost of Normandy Road by John Hennessy

Three Legends. One True Horror.

An old house stands on Normandy Road, uncared for and uninhabited for years, until one day, believing an urban legend that no-one dares to live there, a young boy decides to cross its threshold.

Yet the house is far from empty - within its walls, a terrible evil has been disturbed.

It will take one brave soul three of the longest nights of his life to unlock its secrets, but will he live to tell the tale?

***

Although told as a work of fiction, this tale really is based on a true story.

Part of the Haunted Minds series of books. This book is a Kindle Short. @goodreads


MY REVIEW:

https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/1361088743               4 Stars

 This was a quick read and a good creepy story.

The main characters of the story are Danny and Rebecca, they are little kids in school. I think all of us at some time in our childhood had scary stories we told with friends, or heard of scary things happening to people. The kids in this school are no different. They tell stories of the scary house on Normandy Road that has a ghost, The Witch of Hill Top Green that hangs out in the woods, and The Tooth Fairy with Blood-Red Wings!

Some really weird stuff happen to Danny, Rebecca and some of the kids in their class. Some of the kids start going missing. Danny's parents seem mostly oblivious to most things that are going on in his life.

I had no idea where this story was going to go, but I was so surprised at the ending! I won't give out any spoilers, but let me tell you it was such a cool, scary, messed up ending and I loved it. I certainly didn't see that one coming.

I think this is a nice little book for those of you that like horror books at any age.
