About this listen

"It was a suffering like no other. And, oh, how they suffered."

Recreating the seance that led to the infamous Victorian Suffering massacre seems like a good idea at the time. But Kyle Birbeck soon discovers that the ghosts his distant ancestor banished into the walls of Brackenby House in 1876 have been lurking, waiting for a chance to come out.

One by one the five terrifying ghosts latch onto each of the students who reside at Brackenby, preying on their deepest fears: A three-eyed Incan giant. A member of the Hellfire Club who struck a deal with the devil to keep his fortune in the afterlife. A thieving factory hand who fell to his death, torturing them with endless footsteps. An oracle with a horde of dead sailors to do her bidding, and a seventeenth century axe-wielding executioner with a murderous hobby.

It's up to Kyle and his friends to uncover the real secrets of the seance and banish the ghosts for good. But they soon come to realize it isn't Brackenby House that's haunted. They are. And the ghosts will stop at nothing to continue The Suffering . . .

Contains mature themes.

An incredible story that’s wonderfully read.

Don’t go in the water.

Don’t go up the stairs.

Don’t go in the cellar.

Try to get some sleep.

there were some spooky parts but mostly I found it a little predictable. also I'm sorry to say that I struggled with the narration...the cadence didn't seem to match up with the context of the word so I just found it a little difficult to listen to.

I almost didn't finish it...but it was an OK ghost story in the end.
