There's No Place Like Home. A new, terrifying serial from author Ambrose Ibsen.

Kim and Julian Taylor are in the market for their first home, and a visit to the secluded Beacon estate finds them enamored. It's a peculiar home, rather large and in need of some renovations. The price is right however, and after a tour, they snap the house up without hesitation.

The man who sells them the house has one last detail to share before they sign on the dotted line. The previous owners of the home disappeared under mysterious circumstances nearly eight years ago and have recently been declared dead in absentia. Unperturbed by this fact, Kim and Julian set about making the home their own.

It quickly becomes clear that the two of them are not alone there, however.

In Absentia is the first novella in the Black Acres serial by Ambrose Ibsen. It is approximately 25,000 words and contains adult language, scenes of horror, and a cliffhanger ending. Reader discretion is heavily advised.

I'm a big fan of Ambrose Ibsen and I was glad to come across this story. A lot of his stories have gotten bigger and bigger until they've turned into apocalyptic tales, which is fine, I love those too. But I really enjoy the standard haunted house tale and no one does it better than this guy. I highly enjoyed this tale and look forward to book 2.

A Spooky Traditional Haunted House story

This is not a complete book! It doesn’t just end of a cliffhanger, but just part way through the story. I didn’t find out until later, but the book has been split up into four parts, i.e. you can use four credits to hear one story!!!! The complete story is also available for just one credit though!! (Title: Black Acres). I feel completely cheated! I will be returning the titles on principle.

In terms of the story, it’s exactly what you’d expect from this author: a cookie cutter creepy house book - okay if you just need a quick fix of something like this (I.e. it takes no brainpower at all and is okay as just background noise) but I would never call this a ‘good’ book. Also, as a woman, I find the way the husband speaks to the wife in this is frankly offensive.

So in summary, I’d say: probably don’t bother. Don’t waste a credit (or four) on this and go and listen to Shirley Jackson’s The Haunting of Hill House instead.

Warning!
